I think that is a rock sole, but not 100% sure.
Nice work on the searun cutt!

Thanks and I think you might be right. Caught in about 2 feet of water.

Caught a funny looking SRC this afternoon?

That guy looks like he's seen some things that can't be unseen.

That's because it's a Silver..

That's because it's a Silver..

I believe in this case the laughing/crying emoji indicates that they are well aware of that.

Ha, as soon as it started pulling, I knew it wasn't a SRC. I thought I had snagged the bottom as I had done a little earlier and then the bottom started pulling back!

You'll encounter other fish out in The Sound. That's the cool thing about fishing Puget Sound

Love to see the success out there! I'm in the same place as you, just getting going on the SRC Trout addiction. Thanks for sharing!

It's definitely addicting and I'm slowly starting to figure it out. Good luck!

I will check with a co-worker tomorrow.

I heard back from a co-worker about the flatfish. Her call was a rock sole as well, but thought there was a possibility of it being an English sole. The water and angle is distorting some features. She provided a pic of a rock sole from one her trawl surveys, which I am sharing

Yep, I'm thinking Rock Sole for sure based on that photo. It was probably 8 to 10 inches. Thanks for the help!

This one was my best SRC landed this year. Lost a much larger fish after a jumpy short battle barbless hook, sigh. Recent rain has my favorite SRC run unfishable .... fly = lightning strike muddler
