Rocky Ford Creek is located in Eastern Washington above the town of Epharta. It is a planted catch & release fishery, with special fly-fishing only regulations.

Anglers can expect rainbows that exceed 24 inches. The stream was planted in 1994 with over 20,000 rainbows donated by Trout-Lodge, Inc, which operates a hatchery on the premises. This was the first trout release following the initial plant after rehabilitation in 1988. It is planted randomly throughout the year with brood stock and smaller hatchery rainbows.

Wading is not allowed. Anglers must fish from the bank.

The upper mile is on WDFW land and offers the best fishing, followed by the lower mile and a half stretch that meanders across state land. The middle three miles are on private land and are not accessible.

Fishing is open year round and fly fishing only rules are in effect.
