The Yakima River area just below the diversion dam needs to have a good boat launch built that will allow public access to this stretch of water. It is a shame that on the states only true blue water trout river this much of the water can not be accessed by the public.
I support this petition which will help expand walk-in fishing opportunities for CWU students who are new to flyfishing. With additional river access the sport and commerce surrounding it will improve in Ellensburg local.
I support the effort to increase foot and boat access to the Yakima River between Thorp and Ellensburg. This will be a win-win for the fish and the local economy by both encouraging more visits, and spreading out pressure on the fish, which are managed under Catch-and-Release regulations.
FOR THOSE OF US THAT ARE NOW LIVING ON FIXED INCOMES, ADDITIONAL ACCESS TO THE RIVER THAT WOULD BE WITHOUT FEE'S WOULD BE A GOOD ADDITION TO WHAT'S ALREADY AVAILABLE. tHIS WAS A FELLA COULD FLOAT AND WADE IN PLACES THAT CAN ONLY BE ACCESSED BY A GUIDED TRIP. THAT MANY CAN NO LONGER AFFORD.
Although I live in Western Washington, my most memorable fishing experiences in the state have been on the Yakima. It is a treasure that needs to much more available. When I have fished the Yakima I have gladly spent money for motels and meals as well as guide services.
We all need this!
P{lease open our rivers!

Access is critical for the enjoyment and protection of our great outdoor resources. Please open this corridor to allow future enjoyment and ease fishing pressure by distributing sportsmen over a broader area. This will enhance the quality of this very special fishery.
