华盛顿州关闭 Hoh River 与 Quillayute 流域全部捕鱼：三文鱼洄游量远低于预期
华盛顿州渔猎局（WDFW）宣布，自10月19日起无限期关闭 Hoh River 与 Quillayute 两大流域的所有捕鱼活动，涉及水域内所有鱼种，渔业管理人员将继续监测河流水情，如果情况改善可能重新开放。
华盛顿州渔猎局（WDFW）表示，做出这一决定是因为今年银鲑捕捞量远低于预期，加上夏季降水偏少导致河流水位下降、三文鱼洄游受阻。低水位迫使奇努克鲑和银鲑滞留在下游河段，无法上溯到产卵区；虽然近期降雨让部分三文鱼恢复上溯，但水位仍低于正常水平。该局在声明中说：「两个流域的当季渔业监测显示，银鲑捕捞量大幅低于预期，表明2026年的洄游量低于季前预测。」
受影响的水域包括 Clallam County 的 Bear Creek、Beaver Creek、Bogachiel River、Calawah River、Dickey River、Quillayute River、Sitkum River、Sol Duc River、Thunder Creek，以及 Jefferson County 的 Hoh River 及其南汊，均位于 Olympic National Park 边界附近区域。（GSM 据华盛顿州渔猎局 WDFW 公告、Peninsula Daily News 报道）
Washington Closes All Fishing in Hoh and Quillayute Watersheds as Salmon Returns Fall Short
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) has closed all fishing in the Hoh River and Quillayute watersheds beginning October 19, until further notice, for all species in the listed waterways. Fishery managers will continue monitoring river conditions and may consider reopening fisheries if conditions improve.
WDFW said the decision follows coho salmon harvest rates substantially lower than anticipated and below-average summer precipitation, which reduced river flows and delayed salmon migration. Low water levels caused Chinook and coho salmon to remain in lower river reaches rather than moving upstream to spawning areas; while recent rainfall has allowed some salmon to resume migration, conditions remain below normal. "In-season fishery monitoring in both basins shows that coho harvest is substantially lower than anticipated, suggesting that the 2026 return is lower than preseason projections," WDFW said.
Affected waterways include Bear Creek, Beaver Creek, the Bogachiel River, the Calawah River, the Dickey River, the Quillayute River, the Sitkum River, the Sol Duc River, and Thunder Creek in Clallam County, and the Hoh River and its South Fork in Jefferson County, in areas near the Olympic National Park boundary.
