The region's National Forests offer 20,000 miles of streams and
170,000 acres of lakes and reservoirs for fish to live in. Some
anglers are drawn by the opportunity to fish for all five species of
Pacific salmon and three species of trout. Others cast their lures for
warm water species such as bass, sunfish, perch, and walleye.
Fish populations are supplemented with hatchery fish in some
forest lakes and streams. Fish habitat management is the
responsibility of public lands agencies such as the US Forest
Service, National Park Service, and Bureau of Land Management.
