Non-Fly Baker lake sockeye 2026

I saw the WDFW Fish Taxi making a run as we were driving home this past Thursday.

The Baker fish "taxi" is owned and operated by Puget Sound Energy, as are all the Baker fish passage and production facilities. WDFW operates the Baker spawning channel and fish hatchery under contract with PSE. I mention this because sometimes agencies will take credit that belongs to others.

Mostly interested on how much of a gong show the boat ramps were. I braved it last year and ended up parking a mile down the road the afternoon before the opener. Crazy crowded then and with no columbia fishery this year, thought it would be worse this year.
