Hey, where's the Yakima river in Yakima county? And Crappie are missing from species?

Anyway, this is actually for 2 trips, one with Jiggy and one solo. We went to several ponds in the basin a few days ago, including one that apparently has no name at all on any map, and caught 7 LMB and a crappie, and I went to a backwater of the Yakima and caught 4 largemouth and 7 crappie. Attached are photos, plus the new pyrenese pup of our pack. These were fairly short trips, but fun. There's also a screen shot of what I thought was amusing on TV.

Hi FishinChristian,
I live in Seattle area and wonder if these days are productive for fishing in Yakima river..(doesn't matter species)
and I read some article and found these area are good, but not quite sure that's true..

Me and my 7yrs son look forward to first trip to Yakima for bank fishing.. So I need your advise about when and where would be good since this would be long distance trip....

Rocky: Might hit Moses with Jiggy this weekend. If so, wanna meet?


HP: The Woodhouse ponds to the NE of your marker can be pretty productive, but the fish run small. Check your regs for river fishing this area of the river, which can yield trout and squawfish... er... pikeminnow... The lower river is less regulated and has more species. 7 years, I'd tend toward pond fishing, or somewhere you can use bait, unless he's really good at cast/retrieve for his age.
