FISHING: Great
Yakima River Report for Friday, September 15th, 2004
The valley has seen some interesting weather over the last week; Ample clouds and rain showers has been the pattern with a bit of wind mixed in here and there. The weather for the next 5 days is basically more of the same, minus the wind!
The fishing and catching has been good. We are starting to see a few pods of fish feeding on the Baetis! This is a nice change to the basic searching with dries we have been seeing for the last few months of high water. The water is wader friendly throughout the system as well. Utilizing multiple techniques to catch the trout including, big dries, little dries, full-on nymphing, dry droppers, streamers and the swing are all worthy techniques. Remember, the Fall can be " The Far and Fine" season on the Yakima... Finer tippets and smaller bugs, especially with dry flies and nymphs!
