Fishing for Puget Sound Chum Salmon

Ryan Lothrop , Fisheries Management, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Olympia, WA
This Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife video highlights a simple fishing tactic to catch Chum Salmon in Puget Sound marine waters from both shore and a boat, with an emphasis towards fishing in south Puget Sound and Hood Canal. This affordable set-up and simple tactic can be used by youth and other new anglers during the fall months. This 6:27 video is part of the video library contained within the efforts to educate and inform anglers of rules and fishing opportunities to target underutilized fisheries, improve angler success, and increase license sales. This film among others were filmed by biologists using both GoPro and Canon Vixia video cameras and edited by Adobe Premier Elements.
