HOME - WASHINGTON FLY FISHING GUIDES FOR STEELHEAD & TROUT - THE YAKIMA/NACHES, KLICKITAT, UPPER COLUMBIA/KETTLE & OLYMPIC PENINSULA

YAKIMA RIVER REPORT- 9/8/14

The flip flop is basically over. The fishing on the Yakima has been, quite frankly, great.  The dry fly, nymph and the streamer have all been productive.

Hatches include...

#16 Tan Caddis
#10 Crane flies
#8-14 Hoppers
#12-18 Ants and Beetles
#14-16 Yellow Mays

Don't fall into casting at the bank.....While there are fish on select banks, the water is quite low and many of our fish are being fooled in the middle of the river.


The beautiful fish in this post ate a dry fly, nowhere near a bank!  Pattern of the week shown below...
