California salmon fishing canceled for second year in row as population wanes
Fox News
By unanimous vote, the Pacific Fishery Management Council has declared that all commercial and recreational salmon fishing is canceled off the coast of California.
Like 2023, this year’s decision was made in order to protect California’s waning salmon populations after drought and water diversions resulted in river flows that are too warm and slow for the state’s Chinook salmon to flourish.
A February report by the fishery council found that in 2023 just over 6,100 fall-run Chinook, often known as king salmon, returned to the upper Sacramento River to spawn. The average between 1996 and 2005 was more than 175,000 fish.
