Action: Recreational spot shrimp fishing will reopen for one day (Wednesday, May 22) in Marine Area 11 and a portion of Marine Area 10, which includes all Marine Area 10 waters outside of Elliott Bay.
Effective Date: 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Wednesday, May 22, 2013.
Species Affected: All shrimp species including spot shrimp.
Location: Marine Area 11 and Marine Area 10, excluding Elliott Bay (Elliott Bay is defined as all waters east of a line from West Point to Alki Point).
Reason for Action: Sufficient recreational spot shrimp quota remains for one more day of fishing. The Elliott Bay portion of Marine Area 10 has a separate spot shrimp quota, and the quota has been reached in that area.
Other Information: On last week's shrimp openers, several Puget Sound fishing areas experienced a 30 percent increase in participation over the previous season, so at this point it is unlikely that other central Puget Sound areas will reopen.
Contact: Mark O'Toole, La Conner, (360) 466-4345 ext. 241.
