WOT 121: Salmon and Sea-Run Cutthroat in the Puget Sound with Jack Naughton

Published 3 years, 8 months ago
Description

In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Jack Naughton from Tacoma, Washington.  Jack was introduced to fly fishing in college while fishing the rivers and lakes of the Cascade Mountains with his friends.  He took his new love for fly fishing to the Puget Sound where he now fishes for salmon and sea-run cutthroat from the shore or kayak. 

We discuss the different species and timelines of salmon that make their runs into the rivers of the western Cascades, some tactics and techniques for targeting them, and the year round opportunities to catch sea-run cutthroat on the fly.
