PERMANENT RULES
DEPARTMENT OF
FISH AND WILDLIFE
[Order 24-11—Filed September 25, 2024, 3:51 p.m., effective October 26, 2024]
Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing.
Purpose: These rule proposals are responding to and supporting two separate rule petitions submitted to and approved by the department of fish and wildlife (department). This rule proposal is based on the two petitions which together seek to amend recreational fishing rules at Park, Blue, and Deep lakes in Grant County and at Fish Lake in Chelan County. The Blue, Park, and Deep lakes petition was received in March 2024 and the Fish Lake Petitions was received in January 2024. Both petitions were accepted, but rule making was deferred until after the North of Falcon salmon season setting process was completed (July 2024). The first petition received by the department seeks to remove harvest limits at Fish Lake; the second petition received by the department seeks to extend the fishing season at Park, Blue, and Deep lakes. Below are more specific descriptions of the rule changes for both sets of lakes:
Blue, Park, and Deep lakes petition: The purpose of this proposal is to change the current fishing season closure date from September 30 to October 31. Extending the fishing season closure date to October 31 will increase recreational angling opportunities at these lakes later into the fall when trout fishing is very productive. This change also aligns with recent changes in trout stocking at all three lakes.
Fish Lake petition: The purpose of this proposal is to change the current fishing rule for yellow perch at Fish Lake (i.e., 25 fish daily bag limit and no minimum size) to the statewide general fishing rule (i.e., no daily bag or minimum size limits). Removing the daily bag limit for yellow perch will increase angler harvest and improve average length. This change is consistent with fish manager recommendations based of fish community surveys performed in 2009, 2016, and 2021.
