Re: Sea-Run Cutts: Locations and Techniques

[redshedflyshop]

Howdy Ryan, I would think a good place to start looking for Sea Run Cutt patterns would be in the fly pattern section of this bulletin board. The first 2 look like killers to me. Then I would look thru the list archives for anything that was from Leland. Some day I hope to get over and try some "SRC" fishing. Sounds like a blast. Take care, MJC ----- Original Message ----- From: Ryan Davey To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2003 5:28 PM Subject: Sea-Run Cutts: Locations and Techniques I know there are a number of members of this mailing list who fish for sea-run cutthroats here in the Puget Sound Area, and was hoping to get a bit of information from them.  I have been watching and reading the posts regarding this with interest, but find it a bit hard to follow.   Being somewhat new to the Pacific Northwest, my experience for fishing for sea-run cutthroat is severly limited.  Since I live in the area, I figured I might as well give it a try, and see what all the fuss is about.    I am looking for information on what techniques, flies, lines, leaders, and of course, locations to chase these fish.  I would assume, having had a few years of saltwater fly fishing experience, that the fishing is somewhat dependent on the tides.  What are the best tides to fish, the waxing tide, waning tide, or dead tide?    I have heard to look for locations that have a river flowing into a beach, can anyone suggest some locations near Redmond?  The reason I am interested in this is I'm looking for a bit of fishing to do before and/or after work, since I work night-shift and have the days off.   I have found the article on Washingtonflyfishing.com quite informative, and the website pugetsoundflyfishing.com informative as well, but neither of them provide any locations that sound familiar to me.  Any suggestions of where to go that's close?   Anyone out there interested in taking a newbie sea-run cutt fisherman fishing, drop me a line…   Ryan Davey worldanglr   Calling Fly Fishing a hobby is like calling Brain Surgery a job. - Paul Schullery
