Yakima River Fly Fishing Report – 9/17/09

Upper Canyon- We put in early and it payed off. The fish were keyed in to the stone fly on top. We fished a single bug on top all day. We tryed some crane flies and small mayflies, but the stone was happening. We saw two stone flies hatch at noon and some small caddis and mayflies around 10:00, not as much bug activity as we would have liked. But, we had 6 fish 15″ – 18″ and a lot of smaller ones. I put a video up on how to tie the stone fly we have been using. Flies: #10-8 Dark Stone Dry, #18-16 CDC BWO, #14-12 Crane Fly
