Ellensburg Fishing
« on: March 25, 2008, 07:27:07 PM »
My boys are out of school this week and we are looking to fish near Ellensburg.  Are the Rio Frito ponds year round?  Is one any better than another?  We don't care about size and catch and release anyway.  Thought we would go look in the canyon for sheep also.
Thanks!

Yes, Rio Frito is open year round. There are also a couple more ponds that I can't remember the name of right now, but there is one right before you enter the canyon and another that is right off i-90 past the best western and subway. I think they were just recently stock in the past few weeks, so the fishing should still be good. You can look it up on the WDFW website. I am not sure if anyone is better than the other, but if they aren't hitting on either of the ponds on the rio frito you should try some of the other ponds that are a short drive away.

Fio Rito is open year round as well as Mattoon (the one right next to I-90). Fio Rito usually produces better (it did for me anyway). Toss some power eggs out there and wait...
