Fly fishing on the Yakima River






We took advantage of our new semi-retirement status and headed to Ellensburg for a day of fly fishing on the Yakima River with a guide from Worley Bugger fly shop. It was an absolutely glorious day which started at 9 a.m. and ended at 7 p.m. We fished all day with a stop on the banks of the river for a lunch of barbeque steak, corn on the cobb and salad. We fished holes, from the banks, boat, and river. Tom caught a lot of fish -- white fish, trout... It is catch and release on the river now and so none of them were taken, but it was fun to see that with a little more experience, I too could have caught a few.
