    Since May 1
    Rockfish ban in Puget Sound starts May 1
    By Scott Rasmussen • May 3, 2010 2:39 pm

    Beginning May 1, the majority of Puget Sound and the Strait of Georgia, including Marine Area 7, which encompasses the San Juans, will be restricted to angling for bottom fish at a depth of no greater than 120 feet (20 fathoms).
