Fished this morning in the Ellensburg canyon. Caught my limit in 3 hrs., largest fish was 17". It didn't seem to matter what color fly I used today. I fished with red, chartreuse and root beer colored flies.

When you speak of "Ellensburg canyon" I assume you mean the Canyon River Road, which goes out to Redd's Fly shop?
Do you ever target the area below the Umtanum foot bridge?

Rocky, the Yakima River holds a lot of large whitefish. I've caught them up to 19".

Nice catch Gordy! Some good smoking on the horizon. Tight lines brother!

Quadfather, yes it is the Canyon River Rd.. I fish the entire stretch of the canyon river. If a stretch looks like it will hold fish I'll try it.

Pacbassman, I give the whitefish to Panfisher to smoke. He does an excellent job on them.
