Hood Canal sport shrimp season
extended one final day, June 11
Action: Sufficient quota remains in Hood Canal to extend the shrimp season one final day between the hours of 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. on June 11.
Effective dates: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, June 11, 2008.
Species affected: All shrimp.
Location: All waters of the Hood Canal (Marine Area 12).
Reason for action: Sufficient quota remains in Hood Canal to warrant extending the shrimp season for one weekday.
Other information: The Hood Canal shrimp district will be reopened to recreational fishing for a ninth day because sufficient quota remains to warrant a one-day opener. A general reduction in overall effort contributed to a lower harvest of spot shrimp in the canal than expected.
