Not just a coastal cutthroat, but the semi-anadromous (or amphidromous) form of the coastal cutthroat. In the the range of the coastal cutthroat (from California's Eel River to Alaska's Kenai Peninsula), wherever access to salt water is readily available some will adopt this lifestyle, spending several months of each year feeding there. Puget Sound and the Strait of Georgia offer some of the best habitat available to them. beautiful, wild (there have been no successful attempts at raising them in hatcheries) and aggressive, they are ideal fish for the fly angler.
