Default Northwest airports near flyfishing spots

I didn't get any seaplane recommendations, but will pass them on to you once
I hear about them.

I saw a floatplane for sale at KRNT that caught my eye. It was a Maule, with
soft field wheels and tires and floats with launching dolly for $65k. It was
IFR equipped, but I don't have the other specs on it.
Looking at the specs for those aircraft, they seem about perfect for this
area.

What type of float plane do you have? Once I get my wife comfortable with me
flying again. (Starting up again after 20 years), I plan to start working on
her for a shared ownership with someone.

Thanks everyone for the great info!

I will post pictures and updated information as I try these and find
others.


Did you get any specifics other than what Doug wrote?

I'd be interested particularly in good seaplane-accessible fly-fishing
spots within 100 miles (or so) of Seattle, but I didn't see any specific
information along those lines. If you come across that kind of detail,
please do share!
