No springer season on the Yakima !!!!!!!!!
I'm very upset. I've been gearing up just for the season. I guess I'll have to drive the 130miles to the Wind or Drano. This is soooo depressing. The duck

Are you sure about this? I heard otherwise, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Several people have told me that it will be open, but for a very short period of time. I also heard that you'll be able to keep one fish, hatchery or wild.

rola, the duck is right . Remember that low water 2 years ago and everyone caught fish.

Now were paying for it......seems the nates go out earlier and were ok....but most of the hatchery smolts didn't make it out.

Out of the 6,400 fish forecasted, only around 1,000 are expected to be hatchery, the nates are protected by the ESA....you won't see a season....I got this from the top local WDFW person.

Bright side next year looks good again.

That sucks. I was looking very forward to it.

Plug puller, me too

Considering I live in Yakima, THIS SUCKS!! Looks like it's back to the Cowlitz and Klickitat for me!!

There's always catch and release...spinners catch trout too!!
