You will need a saltwater license; you can purchase a $10 one-day license in the office before your trip. Children 15 years of age and under are not required to have a license. If you are fishing multiple times a year, an annual license may suit you better.

Halibut and Salmon require a catch record card make sure to inquire about these during check in.

Dress in layers, rain gear or a waterproof coat are always a good idea, boots or nonskid shoes.  Pack a lunch and drinks.  Sunglasses, gloves, sunscreen, beanies – are just a few things to remember.  Don’t forget cash to pay fillet fees and for tips.

To truly enjoy your fishing excursion, we suggest 7 years of age and older.
