YAKIMA

The only zone currently with clarity is above the Teanaway confluence where it has been a little crowded lately with anglers

 

UPPER COLUMBIA

Fishing is good.  Water  temps are 38-40 degrees with the flows ranging between 40-60K and  8 feet of visibiity.  Nymphing and swinging/retrieving have been the game.

Utilizing a variety of sink heads based on depth and flow is important with any fishing and that is key here as well.
