Fishing
Forks is well known for its winter steelhead trout fishing with the Quillayute river system - the Hoh, Sol Duc, Bogachiel and Calawah rivers. Other nearby Clallam, Sekiu and Hoko rivers are also good for king salmon fishing and steelheading as well.
Local guides are available for both native and hatchery runs and for float trips. Fishing gear and clothing is available at local stores.

Famous quotes containing the word fishing:

—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“The wildness and adventure that are in fishing still recommended it to me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If fishing is a religion, fly fishing is high church.”
—Tom Brokaw (b. 1940)
