Since its not actually fish I was wondering if its legal to collect driftwood? If so anyone have any ideas in Pierce/King?kitsap county that might be decent for getting some driftwood for a freshwater tank? Driftwood prices are just outrageous IMO. I know Purdy SPit has alot of driftwood but since thats saltwater I dont think it would do my freshwater tanks any justice.

not sure if it's legal either, but way back when i was in highschool, i collected a few pieces on a fishing trip to lake kapowsin..... the nice thing was that they were already bogged down with water when i pulled them out of the lake
If you do decide to collect your own, be careful you don't get any sap rich wood (fir, pine, cedar) as it can be toxic to your fish. I don't think it's illegal, there's a man here who collects and sells cool pieces for cheap out of a storage unit. If you collect anything out of salt water just boil it to ensure there aren't any critters or microbes living on it. Buying bogwood can be a pricy venture. If you get up to Edmonds, Cory had some nice pieces that are reasonably priced at the Aquarium Co-Op.:spoton:
