Snorkeling: Where to see wild fish in the Pacific Northwest?

[Moose]

Listen, I know we're not going to have anything remotely tropical or really within the types commonly traded for aquariums in terms of size/color/etc. But like many of you (maybe all of you?) I really like staring at fish, I have snorkel equipment, and I'm looking for some spots for a long weekend trip this summer. Anyone have recommendations for lakes or rivers (PNW ocean is too cold lol) with good clarity and at least some kind of aquatic life?

You could do this in Florida and see a ton of stuff, but the alligators are a buzz kill. Is it better to have access to a spot and not be able to enter or not have a spot at all? Mysteries of life.
