Yakima & Cle Elum Rivers – Home to Rainbow and Cutthroat – The Yakima and Cle Elum Rivers are the most popular rivers in Washington. One can spot trout here all throughout the year.

Puget Sound – Home to Sea Run Cutthroat – Spread over 1500 miles, the shoreline is a must to explore. Puget Sound is considered to be the most expansive and diverse fishery region of the state of Washington. These salty waters are home to native coastal cutthroat trout and these can be spotted all throughout the year. Chum and Pink salmon enter the saltwater during late February. With it, begins the baitfish season in the Sound.

Mountain Streams – Home to Native Throat – The small and the lesser known stream littered around the Cascade and Olympic Mountain ranges are the true paradise for fly anglers.

Angle Lake – Home To Pan Size Trout – Angle Lake Park is a great spot for a family fishing adventure.
