Wow, now that's what I was after this morning. I just didn't want to drive all the way to those kinds of mp markers, on the Alsea.
Nice, nice, nice!
What kind o' flies did you use (if you don't mind me asking)?

great job on the fish but next time please consider not resting them in the dirt/sand for a pic. It drastically reduces the chance to the fish surviving.

Beaverfan, you are 100% right! had to much trouble trying to take pics with my cell phone, should have brought the digi camera.
Black foam ant pattern with a little orange on top for visibility. this fly floats very low and the trout seem to love it. very subtle takes. also used Elk Hair Caddis.

They fought really well, some even came out of the water multiple times. The section I fished was actually very clean. I brought a bag with me and cleaned up as I fished. Several beer and pop cans in the water but considering all the sunbathers it wasn't to bad. You ever fish the Lochsaw river in North Idaho??? Beautiful cutts in that river!

You can use bait? I looked at the regs and as I see it it is artificila lures and flies only for trout am I wrong?

According to pg. 33 of the reg's; bait is allowed up to the South Fork.
But good for you, for asking that question...and being aware. The reg's are NOT all the same for every river.

Thanks I missed that are the mile posts from the coast or toward it? I have never fished for cutthroats before and would love to give it a try.
