>>356235I have no problem with anyone pulling off the road. I love tourists, Every now and then I see someone taking a video or pic of us driving by and I give them a good honk.
Yes you can fish (almost) any lake/river in the Park and don't even need a license... but it's strictly catch and release. EXCEPT the brook trout which are introduced and there is no minimum size or limit. Keep them all. Though they are mainly found in the smaller lakes higher up in the park, mostly above 3000 feet.
http://www.nps.gov/olym/upload/OLYM_Fish_2014.pdfLake Crescent has two species of trout not found anywhere else in the world: The Beardsley Trout and Crescent Trout. Years ago, there were some monster sized fish in there, but I haven't heard of any being caught lately.
