Please be safe out there in the coming days. Similar to other river systems across the PNW, we are having flooding along the Yakima River. Please avoid trying to access the river or crossing water along roadways. Stay safe out there. These are photos the guides and friends of took over the last day. It’s time to enjoy the holidays… not the river!

It’s getting cold out there, but anglers are still having fun! Mid November can provide great nymphing and streamer fishing!

The guides at Ellensburg Angler want to say thank you to all those that have served and wish you a great veterans day. Many have served to protect what we call home, including our very own Todd Fuchigami.
Thank you Todd and all Veterans!

The season is slipping away, but the fishing is not. The river is wadable and very fishable. Come get out here before the winter rolls in. Fishing is good!
The streamer fishing has been great. You can find fish in deeper runs on slow moving streamers and a variety of nymphs. Flows are around 500CFS.
See you out there!

Sometimes when you float the canyon you get to see these guys way up high in the hills, well here’s a closer look at the bighorn sheep that call our beautiful river, Home. Our friend, Derek Dewey Photography captured these photos this week and they were just too impressive so, we had to share. Great work Dewey!

Fall conditions continue to generate great fishing on the river. Small bugs and cranes seem to be the ticket for most anglers. The river is low at about 550 CFS and will stay that way through the rest of fall and winter. There are great wading opportunities for anglers on the river right now. Go enjoy some spectacular fall fishing before winter rolls around. Call us with any questions you may have.
