Sea Run Browns / NH

[Dana]

I am planning on trying my luck at an undisclosed location in NH for
Sea Run Browns this year. Just looking for any tips on timing or flies
as I am a poor salt water fisherman.

Any information would be appreciated.

Seeing as how NH has what, a 10 mile coastline, it was really pretty easy to
figure out your secret spot and find several web sites about fishing that
particular river. Good recommendations for flies as well as technique.
Google is your friend... Armed with the river name you should have no
trouble finding info. FWIW, I have no personal experience fishing that
river, but the recommendations are very similar to what we used to use on
Cape Cod when we were trying to establish sea run brown trout many years
ago. Hint: as baitfish are pretty much the same in the tidal rivers as
close to shore, the things we use for stripers and blues are effective. For
example, silver sides, sand eels, shrimp patterns. Add mummichaug muddlers
to the flybox and you should be all set for a typically frustrating day.

What do you mean "trying". There are few secret spots with sea run
browns and brookies ... not that I have ever caught any, but I have
it on excellent authority.

Harsh. And for some reason I now have that bookmarked.

Shhh. Secret spots are secret spots. FWIW we get an occasional sea run
brown returning to the Westfield in the Spring. I've seen them at the fish
ladder. More than one person has trapped one thinking it was an Atlantic
salmon. Cool looking fish and quite unexpected.

sea run browns need to be fished for at night, or first light, on a
falling river after a rain in Oct and Nov :)

Not sure you target those in the salt in your area. Where we are, they
are targeted in the tidal freshwater parts of streams, and then again
up in the gravelly spawning areas was up stream.

You just reminded me that the Stillwater must be loaded with Salmon
these days ... must take a ride over tomorrow.

Stan...That's pretty much the joke. With the 10 miles or so of
coastline, there aren't many spots to guess at. It's not a secret spot
for me either - never fished there before so I'm going to be including
some extra frustration into my day.

I appreciate the information.

Gary...I don't think my firewall will allow me access to that site...

I thought it just had to be overcast along with the other
conditions...Didn't know it had to be specifically after a
rain...Interesting.

well I'm sure it depends on the river, but I was just speaking about
the best
times to fish for searuns. I know of some who have caught them on
bright
sunny days, in clear water as well... but just talking about increasing
the chances.
