YAKIMA RIVER REPORT 9/21/14

Posted on

#8 Orange Stimulator
#10 Cranefly
#16 Purple Haze
#8 BH October Caddis
#10 CDC Pricne beadhea
#16 BH Deep Six Caddis
#16 Tungsten Readay Baetis

Honborable mention….
‘The Bead’ in select zones….especially up river!
The adult Crane Fly

The entire river has been fishing good to great from head to toe and it is ultra low as are most western streams currently.  A variety of tactics are needed depending the day and  the stretch of river.

As listed above,  The winner for the dry fly is a #10 Crane fly.  The best nymph in the upper river undoubtedly is the egg pattern behind the salmon.  The best nymph for us in the middle and lower stretches has been the #16 BH Deep Six Caddis.  A well place streamer in the upper river, especially an Eggsucker…..has been WORTHY.

Get out and catch one! –  Grass roots on the Yakima SINCE 1988
