Fishing, Clamming, and Crabbing
Whidbey Island is an amazingly diverse ecosystem. There is always something to fish for, or dig, or catch that can end up on your table or in your pot. This is a brief list of vendors who sell licenses. When you pick up your license, grab a copy of the State rules. It makes for some light reading. Remember that the shores of Whidbey Island fall into three different marine areas, so the rules at one location may be different elsewhere.
We currently have a copy of the State rules, and a chart to help identify Salmon species.
Nearby license purchase locations on Whidbey Island. Licenses are required for any of these activities. Ace Hardware in Oak Harbor has the most complete fishing section and helpful staff.
