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.

Opening Public Access on this section of the river will reduce the impact to other parts of the river and even out the impact to the whole river thus making it more conducive to a better river system.

It is important to improve both boat and foot access the the Upper Yakima River between Thorp and Ellensburg to the outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.

Please develop the partnerships needed to provide more public access to the Yakima River, especially between the dam at Thorpe and Irene Rhinehart Park, plus at or near Ringer Loop Road.

Yes, more public access in this area is important. Able to fish different area of the river. Able to fish longer or shorter trip.

I have fished the Yakima for years. The best trout stream in Washington. Let's make it better! Food, gas, motels, flies and guides. It is a renewable resource. Catch and release. Thanks.
