Fishing Areas for Persons with Disabilities
Public
Fishing Piers
Puget Sound has more than 50 public fishing piers designed
for shore bound anglers. Many of these are state of the art
facilities providing access for persons with disabilities.
A new online website has been developed and is available
with a listing of Piers that can be found throughout Puget
Sound, Hood Canal and in some areas along the Pacific Coastline.
The website is http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/piers.
Accessible
Outdoor Recreation Guide
The
Department of Fish and Wildlife, Department of Recreation
and Conservation Office, Department of Natural Resources,
and State Parks and Recreation Commission have a jointly produced
document titled “Washington Accessible Outdoor
Recreation Guide”. This guide is available online
through the WA State Parks at www.parks.wa.gov/ada-rec.
Not all lakes presented in this year’s Fishing Prospects
have ADA availability due to the nature of the resources and
the actual accessibility required to reach them in remote
locations. Interested persons should review the Washington
State Parks website for any available updates. Every attempt
has been made to make note of locations listed in this publication
that are found also in this Accessibility Outdoor Recreation
Guide.
