Current fishing license is needed. We do not sell licenses at the shop. A Washington State fishing license can be purchased via phone by calling toll free 1-866-246-9453 or online. The process is simple and allows you to purchase your license for one day or a year whether you are a resident or not. If the angler is under 15 years of age a license is not required. http://wdfw.wa.gov/
