Mingo- A big cutt like that is my favorite fish. They are truly something special. Due to circumstances around my area I fear i wont see them much longer.
As for my fly, In 07 a friend and i came up with the ultimate big cutthroat fly. It was a revelation. up to that point I had caught some nice fish, but never gotten the big ones consistantly. I now feel like i have the ammo to go after big cutts and get them. the clousers, poppers, spiders and all other flies I am sure have their days, but my fly puts em all to shame when it comes to targeting and catching big cutties. It isnt on the surface, and it isnt easy to fish, but it does get the job done.... and with the qater being so clear lately its been a visual take just about every time.
There was a big ol "Mingo O Face" when I saw this hen detach herself from the bottom and come n git it.
