The Yakima river has long been known amongst anglers who fly fish on this blue-ribbon trout stream (the only blue-ribbon river in the state). The size of the river means most people fish by boat, but there are many BLM campgrounds and recreation areas along the way that offer wading access as well. Red’s Fly Shop and The Ellensburg Angler are two great options for local guide services.
💡 IHY WISDOM: Red’s has a fun patio and restaurant for après-fishing.
