Let's Talk about Creek Fishing..

North Fork of the Teanaway River

More Specifically the Teanaway, Box canyon, Cooper, among others that offer anglers a great opportunity to get off the beaten path in the upper Yakima watershed.  Here's the catch, you don't need me show you the way.  Lot of talk these days about BLM permits to guide such places and who in the past may have been breaking the law for years and lying about it.  Hmmmm...  But, the past is the past, so let's focus on now.  Here's the deal: In my humblest of opinion I do not believe these waters need to be guided.  Sure, as an angler I love these places, as a guide I feel myself and other guides should not guide these waters. Small intimate waters do not need guys like me pounding the hell out of it.  You don't need a guide, go explore, its super easy, trust me.  Put on a little ant or beetle pattern in red and black and go have some fun.  Use any attractor pattern you have, a stimulator, a royal wulff, anything will do.  The point is you don't need a guide!  One of the greatest experiences an angler can have is doing exactly this, going out and finding your way.  figuring it all out.  The sense of accomplishment you will get is something a guide will never give you.  Go have some fun..your welcome.
