We need more public access to state waters. I fear that existing access will be gradually reduced so that all fishing will become "pay to play" as is the case in many European countries.

I've been rafting with a company out of Thorpe Wa for years and it would be awesome to have more put in and take out areas.

Please provide more recreation access on the Upper Yakima River. This will provide more influx of money to the area. Thanks

In order to launch on the upper river, you almost have to go with a guide service for a decent access to the river

My family represents seven generations here in Washington State. Outdoor Recreation has always been a part of our lives here and public Access has been greatly diminished over the years. Any effort to provide the continuation of access for the public is necessary for the future quality of life for current and future generations. Thank you.

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.

Improved fishing access to the Upper Yakima River would be a great public service.

A needed addition to Washington's only Blue Ribbon trout stream.

More fishing access would be good for fishermen, overall ecology and the local economy.

I would be thrilled to have the chance to fish new water on the Yakima River and lessen the pressure where fishing is allowed at this time. It's healthier for the fish and the sport. Thank you for your consideration.
