Shrimp Season Update.

The recreational spot shrimp fisheries will not open in several Puget Sound marine areas, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) announced today.
Additional test fishing conducted in Marine Areas 8-1 and 8-2 after the April 13 season announcement confirmed lower abundances than fishery managers observed in earlier test fisheries. WDFW and tribal co-managers have agreed closing all spot shrimp fisheries is the best course of action for this year and are committed to rebuilding the Puget Sound spot shrimp population.
Several other areas of Puget Sound will open for spot shrimp on May 24, and Marine Area 12 (Hood Canal) will have an early opportunity on May 10. The recreational fishing seasons for non-spot shrimp will open on June 1 in some Puget Sound marine areas.

Shrimp dates are out!

The recreational spot shrimp fishery will open May 24 in many Puget Sound marine areas, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) fishery managers announced today, with additional dates scheduled in several areas into early July. The one area to have an opening prior to May 24 will be Marine Area 12 (Hood Canal), which will have an early opportunity on May 10.

“Test fishery data in Marine Areas 9 (Admiralty Inlet), 10 (Seattle-Bremerton Area), and 13 (South Puget Sound) continues to indicate low abundance of spot shrimp,” said Don Velasquez, a WDFW Puget Sound shellfish biologist. “As a result, these areas are not scheduled to open for recreational spot shrimp harvests in 2026 (similar to the closures in 2025).”

WDFW fishery managers selected the shrimp fishing dates to offer opportunities to harvest spot shrimp while distributing participants and reducing the chance of exceeding recreational quotas. Due to high expected turnout, some areas cannot support weekend openings while remaining within their current quota.
