Regardless of what you may have heard, this is the actual law concerning this issue.

It is legal for you to hand off your fish to another fisherman if you are fishing legally yourself. That means that you must have the proper license and tags and that you have not yet filled your own limit. Before you can hand off your rod and the fish to another fisherman, the other fisherman must have his line out of the water before he can accept your rod or fish. If he does not take his line out of the water before he takes position of your rod, he can be charged with fishing with 2 rods under RCW77.15.380 (1)b Unlawful Recreational Fishing-2nd Degree for using more than one line. It is a misdemeanor with a maximum fine of $1000 and 90 days in jail.
