  1. You will have to check both rods and reels upon your return to Canada! Mexico no longer allows them to be carried on!! This has been in effect for about 5 years or so... Peter P.S. be careful with pliers, etc. I've had to fight many a time with the CATSA agents! Make sure you understand what you can and cannot bring through security (they don't alway know their rules)! Also be sure to take photos of your gear before checkin in Mexico so you can prove they weren't broken if they arrive broken!
  2. Yup I pulled the Land Title for that one! They don't have any stream beds rights anymore (at least the section that I have fished and I have the title for)!
  3. You are allowed to access any "navigable" waterway (that's not on reserve land) though access point like bridges and travel along the high water mark. Only 1 (maybe) 2 have water rights in Alberta = most say they do but do not! One is Sara's in the CNP area. I have pulled land titles before for places I have fished in the past that have said they have water rights to prove they do not.
  4. Sacha, The Bow can be a tough river to figure out. Consider hiring a guide. It will make things easier, lessen the learning curve and you will learn much faster then figuring out things on your own... Cheers, Peter The Alpine Experience
  5. Welcome to the new Alberta, unfortunately!!
  6. Apparently someone was on CBC this morning... I'll have to listen to the archive...
  7. Too many guides (experienced and inexperienced, alike) put on a triple worm rig and dredge the bottom to get their clients into fish... Is that lazy or good business practice?
  8. Be sure to bring your own reels with the line you normally use!
  9. Best to go cast a bunch (if that's possible for you). As I'm sure you know, what works for one may not be the best for someone else... I use Winston rods and had 5 wt, 6 wt, 8 wt & 10 wt BIIIx rods (which are medium fast action rods) in my quiver. While my wife and I were taking a casting lesson with Linda McLennan (to improve our casts for a salt trip to the Corn Islands in Nicaragua) she noticed that they were too soft for my casting stroke... So I purchased Winston Plus rods for me (which are fast action rods) and now cast much further, smoother and more accurately. Thankfully the BIIIx rods worked well for my wife.
  10. Yes the entire island is off limits, but you can access the water via the shore (not the bank), just can't step on the land. Though there are better stretches of water to fish!!
  11. Yup felt on the Bow, and be sure to get studs for your rubber soles!!
  12. Add to the fact that there is one idiot that has started a "Random Camping (Crown land) Facebook Group"... Just what everyone needs more rednecks disrespecting the outdoors (yes I'm making a huge judgment with that statement)!!
  13. I actually have pulled Landtitles (or have copies) for "Sara's" (the land mentioned above) and for a place on the JP, proving them wrong when confronted (hasn't come to that, but I'm prepared)... P
