It's true, my wife is right, I do fish too much. Still, most of these I caught before I was married 28 years ago this month.
Too much water, so many fish, too little time.

[/quote]Coastal Cutthroat ( Landlocked )[quote]
thats quite the oxymoron because coastal cutthroat are only caught in salt water or freshwater that hs access to the saltwater therefore could not be landlocked.
I'm not trying to be a no it all :geek:

Actually, that's not true at all Mr. Know-it-all :geek:big fish lite line wrote:thats quite the oxymoron because coastal cutthroat are only caught in salt water or freshwater that hs access to the saltwater therefore could not be landlocked.

Not all Coastal Cutthroat Trout are "anadromous."
I believe what you are referring to is more commonly called the Sea-Run Cutthroat--which is, indeed, a Coastal Cutthroat...but one that has spent much of it's life in salt water.
A sea-run cutthroat vs. a coastal cutthroat is the equivalent of a steelhead vs. a rainbow trout. They are the same...only different. :cyclopsan
Coastal Cutthroats have been planted in dozens of Washington's backcountry lakes, beaver ponds, and high lakes which have no direct connection with salt water.
Here is a Coastal Cutthroat that I caught June of this year in Lost Lake (Whatcom Co.)
Unfortunately, the fish was gill-caught and so it was kept. Notice the LARGE prominent black spotting and red slash under it's jaw. This lake has no passible connection to salt water. It's population is entirely freshwater and self-sustaining.
For those interested, there are several variations of the Cutthroat trout:
Bonneville
Coastal
Greenback
Lahontan
Paiute
Rio Grande
Westslope (Montana blackspot)
Yellowstone
Colorado River
The two that are predominately found in Washington would be the Coastal Cutthroat (common on the west-side) and the Montana Blackspot which seems to be found more often in east-side high lakes.
Also, for what it's worth...
Dolly Varden/Bull Trout, Lake Trout/Mackinaw, Silver Trout (extinct), and Brook Trout are not actually trout....they are Char.
Class dismissed. :thumright

RE:Which species of trout have you caught?
I think another example might be the land locked coho salmon.
kokanee
silver
or blue back
Originally from the salt, but fairing quite well once transplanted to fresh water.
