I am gonna take a stab here, but I would imagine the Rivers are blown out after the last few days of rain. I have standing water on the side of my house. Has anybody seen the condition of the Rivers?

I am curious about the Touchet, Yakima and Tucannon rivers.

Tucannon looked fine, if off color, on Monday (1/2/05)

Just got home from fishing the Tucannon, good day on the water. Caught two fish on corky and shrimp, not real big about 6#'s apiece. Water is dropping, clarity is good, at least 3 feet. Water temp is cold, my readings were 37 and 39 degrees. Fished for about 5 hours from bank. Good luck!~Corkynyarn@aol.com

Yak was blown out but it is now a good color and dropping nicely

I had a chance to drive by the Walla Walla River today at Wallula. The water is very high and running brown.

Last week when I was at the Tucannon the water was the highest it has been all year, but still have fairly good visibility. Darker green color. You can usually count on the tucannon being in shape. I have wanted to get onto the Walla2 now that I have somewhat figured out how to catch a fish now and then, but the weather has not let me!
