Fall isn’t just for hunting in Eastern Washington Staff at the Spokane Hatchery, as well as other Eastern Washington hatcheries, started stocking local lakes this week with trout. From October to November each year, 55 truckloads of fish- like this one delivered to Rock Lake yesterday- are put into area lakes in WDFW's Region 1.

Spokane-area district fish biologist Randy recently saw something interesting at Horseshoe Lake in Spokane County. Bullhead catfish fry often travel in large cloud-like schools of thousands of fish. Randy was sampling late last week at Horseshoe when he saw this dark mass of fry (a literal ball of fish) near the shore. Parent bullheads swim around their young in circles to keep them in these schools so they are less likely to become a snack for a predator. | Washington Department of Fish & Wildl

Did you know that WDFW has awarded 470 prizes so far in the 2024 statewide Trout Derby? That also means that as temperatures cool and the bite picks back up, hundreds of the 860 tagged prize fish are still out there waiting to be landed. The derby started with $42,000 in prizes, so there are still a lot of reasons to cast your line. But time is running short on your chance to get in on the derby: The free annual event is only open through Oct. 31, so get out there to give it a try at some of the

A relatively small river with a huge impact, the Stillaguamish is at the leading edge of salmon declines and habitat conservation concerns in Washington and across the West Coast. Endangered Species Act-listed wild Chinook and steelhead runs, a century of habitat loss and degradation, developing communities and changing landscapes all combine in an imperiled ecosystem that is a top priority for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), Native American tribes, local governments, agri

It’s an exciting time for salmon conservation in Central Washington! This year’s sockeye salmon run is phenomenal, with 190,000 fish returning to the Wenatchee River. But it’s not just the main river seeing record numbers. The White River, a crucial tributary feeding into Lake Wenatchee, is witnessing significant sockeye returns. Thanks to improved river conditions and habitat restoration, sockeye are returning in impressive numbers to this alpine river, which offers the ideal cool, clear waters

Fishing legally and ethically helps to ensure an enjoyable time for everyone. We would like to remind all anglers that snagging is illegal throughout Washington. Snagging is defined in WAC 220-300-160 as “an effort to take fish with a hook and line in a manner that the fish does not take the hook or hooks voluntarily in its mouth.” Although more commonly witnessed during times of low flow, snagging occurs year-round. Violators are subject to fines or prosecution under RCW 77.15 or other applicab
