Jere, you know that sucess on the Yakima at this time of year depends a lot on how many fish you are showing your fly to. If you were on foot and wading this week, you would have missed a lot of opportunities. The river came up a bit and floating through the faster water was productive. My buddy and I fished Friday (beautiful day), we caught some nice fish on skwalla imitations. We also took fish on baetis. The guides were putting a good number of fish in the boats. As far as the guide reports..being an Ex-guide myself, you know there is a slight propensity to exaggerate.....Na!
