With the weather so nice decided to head over to the Yakima and hike the john wayne trail across from hwy 10 east of cle elum. Fishing was excellent where I could access the river. A lot of bush whacking but a couple areas two miles down or so I was able to access the river for a good 100 yds and it was well worth it. Caught a 22 inch west slope cutthroat, biggest I've caught on the Yakima and caught several more over 15 inches. All fish on a copper blue fox vibrax size 2. Going to take my pontoon out next week sometime and float it. Great day. Sorry no pics on this trip.

Awesome report. I have always wanted to fish the upper river and this report gives me the incentive to try it out! Was there much competition?

No one at all on the john wayne trail side of the river. Few guys fly fishing where the teanaway dumps in and didn't see any boats. A mountain bike would be very handy.
