No Salmon til Sept.

Officially published today from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife: The 7,000 Chinook Summer Harvest Guideline has been met.
Approximately 9,165 Chinook salmon were taken statewide by 10,505 anglers during the June 7-8 recreational ocean salmon season opener. On recommendation from CDFW and industry, the National Marine Fisheries Service took in-season action on June 23, 2025 to close the remaining summer dates of July 5-6, July 31-August 3, and August 25-31. The recreational ocean salmon fishery is set to reopen September 4-7 under a separate fall harvest guideline of 7,500 Chinook in waters between Point Reyes and Point Sur.

Thanks for the information.

Thanks for posting.
Got my trip booked for Sep 6.

Vacation days canceled.  Dangit!

So does that mean there’s  not going to be salmon fishing
in Sonoma County ? Or Mendo…

I might hit HMB Thursday before the MBK tournament.

They should’ve ended the number in 69. There’s no way they can count every fish anyway

You’re going to have to go south if you want to chase salmon for part 2
