Then check out this interactive map from the people at http://www.pugetsoundkeeper.org/ and shows just how messed up the Puget Sound waters really are.  The idea of course is if you know just how screwed up the waters we love are, you will help fix it.

Take a look and see just what is going on in your area.  You might even consider helping to do something about it.  Cleaner water means more fish, crabs and clams for us all!

The halibut and lingcod fisheries in Puget Sound, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and two southern coastal ports started off on a high note.

The eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca and north Puget Sound generated good catches of halibut when the areas opened last weekend.

“I’ve never seen such a phenomenal halibut fishery on the (May 1) opening day like this one,” said Larry Bennett, the head state Fish and Wildlife sampler in the Strait.
