Quick evening on the Yakima



By Troutnut on June 29th, 2018
I spent (Spent: The wing position of many aquatic insects when they fall on the water after mating. The wings of both sides lay flat on the water. The word may be used to describe insects with their wings in that position, as well as the position itself.) a couple hours in the evening fishing the Yakima upstream of the Cle Elum river, where flows were around 265 CFS at the Easton gage. These were pretty good conditions for wading a stretch that looked promising, but there was no sign of decent fish. Most were just salmon parr hitting midges on the surface, and I caught a single small cutthroat.
