Olympic National Park boasts over 3,000 miles of streams and rivers, as well as countless lakes and 73 miles of ocean coast, providing ample and varied opportunities for fishing. The fisheries program at the park aim to preserve and restore native species to the area and provide recreational fishing opportunities to park visitors. It is important to abide by all park fishing regulations, including the use of Washington State catch record cards, the lure, hook, rod, and reel restrictions, and all catch-and-release restrictions. Fishing along the Pacific Coast involves additional restrictions depending on the area and species being fished. Be sure to check with a park ranger for current restrictions and regulations.
