Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery (FISH) is a nonprofit organization that champions the annual miracle of salmon in our fragile environment.
The Issaquah Salmon Hatchery is the most visited of all the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's hatcheries. Approximately 350,000 people visit the hatchery each year. FISH volunteers are instrumental in educating these hatchery guests.
FISH volunteers are trained by biologists, watershed managers and hatchery staff to provide accurate and interesting information about salmon to hatchery guests. Volunteers will provide tours to visitors, many of them school-aged children from around the Puget Sound region. The Issaquah Salmon Hatchery regularly sees visitors from around the world who have heard about the magnificant return of salmon to Issaquah Creek.
