"The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is hosting an online public meeting July 17, 2024 06:00 PM to share the first draft framework of the resident native trout harvest management policy and hear feedback from the public. This is the second public town hall on the new policy, designed to increase public participation opportunities in policy development... Members of the public can register to participate in the virtual July 17 meeting. Pre-registration is required for all public and internal guests. For more information on this and other upcoming virtual town halls, or to provide comments or suggestions online, please visit wdfw.wa.gov/events ".

"In 2024-25, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is developing a resident native trout policy that will provide high-level harvest management guidance. The policy will apply to resident native rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, and their subspecies including coastal cutthroat, westslope cutthroat, and redband and coastal rainbow trout. This policy will not address native hatchery-origin trout, any non-native trout or char species, or Bull Trout or Dolly Varden (native char) or the anadromous life histories."
