It is a huge fine, and you can possibly have your fishing privileges in the state of Washington revoked. PLEASE UNDERSTAND AND KNOW THE RULES WHEN FISHING!!! if you want too catch and release you can fish with spoons, artificial lures, fly's ect, and you would be just fine releasing all the fish you want, and keep fishing, until you kept five....it is a fact that 60-70 percent of trout released after being hooked with bait, end up dying within a week anyway, the reason for the rule!!!
