#IFishBecause

The Quinault National Fish Hatchery 

(NFH) is cooperatively managed with the 

Quinault Indian Nation, and has been in 

continuous operation since 1968. 

Located on Cook Creek, a Quinault River 

tributary within the Quinault 

Reservation, the hatchery rears winter 

steelhead, chum, and coho salmon. Over 

three-million smolts (ocean-ready 

juveniles) are released annually into 

Cook Creek. Quinault NFH also provides 

rearing support for the Nation’s Lake 

Quinault and Salmon River hatchery 

steelhead programs. The hatchery has 

also provided support to the Hoh Tribe 

steelhead program. These eorts are 

critical for supporting sustainable 

sheries and tribal, commercial, and 

sport shing harvests. 

Peak shing season in Cook Creek

is Sept.-Feb., a Quinault tribal guide

is required.
