Fishing Report:
06/10/2025

We have high water! If you are a wade-fishermen, please be cautious out there. Definitely try to stay above the confluence of the Yakima and Cle Elum for the safest wading. Most of the tributaries are open now, no better time to do some blue lining than right now. The waters in these tributaries will be cold so you do not have to get up super early to get after it.

For bugs on the tributaries around Cle Elum and Roslyn I would take:

size 12 - 16 Parachute Adams in purple haze, grey, and yellow and I would fish that all day.

If you want to bring more, you can bring:

size 8 - 12 Chubby Chernobyl ant in yellow/black and purple

Size 10 - 16 Royal Wulff Parachute

size 14 - 16 bead-head Pheasant Tail

size 14 - 16 Perdigon dull colors with a hot spot

size 8 scupzilla.

Go explore! You never know when you'll find your next favorite river that no one knows about.

As far as the Yakima, fishing has been solid. With the increase in temps the smaller fish have gotten a lot more active and the bigger fish are getting harder to find. That could change with the temperatures going down next week, just keep an eye on that forecast. Haven't seen many grasshoppers yet but they are coming, lots of drakes, caddis, yellow sally's, PMDs, and golden stones. With the hot weather the fish are starting to move into the faster water, don't be afraid to throw your bugs into those shallow riffles, especially if there is a big pool behind it.

For bugs I would take:

Size 8 - 10 Chubby Chernobyl in purple, royal, and golden

Size 14 - 16 Parachute Adams in purple and yellow

Size 10 Green Drake Wulff

Size 8 Emma Stone in goldenv

Size 14 - 16 Elk Hair Caddis

Size 8 TJ Hookerv

Size 8 - 10 Pat Stone

Size 12 - 16 Pheasant Tail

Size 6 Dolly Llamav

Size 4 - 8 Scupzilla
