Washington State Fishing Licenses
Option #1: Purchase your license from us the morning of your trip!
If time won't allow for you to buy a license before your trip, we can sell you a license when you arrive for your fishing trip. We can also provide catch record cards for Salmon & Steelhead to go along with those licenses, for those under 15 years olds, and for licenses that were purchased and printed online. If you are crabbing on one of our trips you must purchase a shellfish license from from a full service dealer (see stores below).
