Our destination is the Yakima River in central Washington with fly fishing guide, outfitter, and instructor Joe Rotter, Reds Fly Shop, Ellensburg, WA. The Yakima has it all--big western hatches, wild fish that fight like steelhead, beautiful scenery, and cold water all summer long. It’s a technical fishery that requires casts to teacup-sized targets. Joe gives a master class on technical fly fishing. Stick around to the very end for a great story about an unwanted cliff diver who dropped in on Joe’s boat.
With host, Steve Haigh
