Salmon sales dates

A Yakama tribal fisher lowers his dipnet into the Klickitat River roiling beneath his scaffold.

The Columbia River Tribes have chosen to end the commercial sale of salmon and steelhead caught in their mainstem Columbia River fishery. The Yakama Nation has decided to allow the commercial sale of coho and chinook caught in their fishery on the Klickatat River. The best opportunity to buy these fish is to purchase them directly from fishers on the Klickitat River.

Available fish during this time will be chinook and coho. Sturgeon, sockeye, steelhead, walleye, shad, yellow perch, bass, catfish, and carp sockeye are unavailable for sale.

Be sure to bring along a cooler with ice to safely transport your fresh fish home.

If you have any questions, please call, toll-free, (888) 289-1855.
