A floating line is really all you need. Cutts tend to be fairly surface
orientated and will take a fly close or even on the surface. If more depth
is required use a beadhead fly or some weight within the dressing. As for
patterns the spiders are a good choice but be sure to carry some more
imitative patterns as well. Such as minnow imitations(my favorite being the
rolled muddler), small clousers and some shrimp or euphausid patterns. As
for locations I don't know the area but I'm sure others do. For timing the
cutts should be coming off the spawning beds soon and will start actively
feeding on the beaches and estuaries till late fall when they follow the
salmon back up the rivers. But there seems to be some fish that stay in the
ocean all year round so the only way to find out is to go fishing.
Good luck,
Ross
