I know it is closed for retention pretty much everywhere except of hood canal but I want to wet a fly for coho. I was thinking fast sinking tip and unweighted green/white and green/pink/white clousers about 3in long. I would be casting from the beach of casting towards beach/cove for them. Can anyone give me any tips and suggestions about gear or the way to fish the fly, tides, or anything helpful to help me get my first salmon on the fly??? Thanks. Tight lines and dry waders.

I have not done it but really like this pattern of fly to imitate candlefish and herring.

Targeting them, regardless of your method or intent to release them is illegal. There is a mortality rate attached to cnr and there is a reason it is closed. Pursue them at your wallet's risk.
