FISHING -- Hiking across Rocky Ford Creek north of Moses Lake will get a boost from new footbridges that are being prepared for installation on the popular fly fishing stream.

The Washington Fish and Wildlife Department has been looking into replacing the dilapidated bridges for at least four years.

Angler Matt Paluch posted the photo above on Wednesday showing a bridge to be installed at the upper end of the fishing area.
