  1. I have used Smith and Costa and found them both to be great. Probably slightly prefer my Costa just the way they fit my face. I find my ears a little sore after a full day with the smiths.
  2. Awesome photos, thanks a lot for sharing them. Looks like a great year.
  3. Wow that is a lot of awesome shots, thank you for posting.
  4. Damn that looks like a great way to spend a weekend. Thanks for sharing the post definitely gives a guy a drive to do some remote hike in fishing.
  5. Ha they would get me every time, I love 'Beer' brand beer.
  6. I bought my smiths at bow cycle. Also on the Lens front just picked up a pair of Costa Glasses and have to say that I find the Costa Lenses a step above the Chroma Pop. Still very impressed with the Smith's just not as nice as the Costa. I was able to pick up a pair at Bass Pro Shops.
  7. Those are some monster fish. Nice work.
  8. Love that photo, ha but like you said wow lots of bend on that rod.
  9. Haha sinusodal good bye. So the bigger the amplitude the bigger the fish?
  10. Hi all, I currently work Oil and Gas and have for most of my adult life. Currently based out of Calgary but have been around AB, BC, Sask and some of the hotspots in the US. I still remember trying to self teach myself fly fishing on a dugout we had for the farm. Got it stocked with 30 or so rainbow trout and I attempted to catch them with a fly but only succeeded in catching the barbwire fence beside the pond and myself. My father new the one and only dryfly (Clive) from this forum and he came over and spent an afternoon helping me out. I still remember watching in awe at the oddly dressed man with the cigar catching fish after fish. Definitely an impressive thing to see. Sadly I ran out of time and patience and didn't fish much for many years after that. Going to University in Wyoming and one my classmates was a second generation guide so he truly got me into it during the school year. I did go back to Clive's book as the first book I read regarding fly fishing. Been hitting up the Crowsnest area a lot as it is between my father and I and he is retired. I did get the opportunity to teach my dad and have turned him into a real addict. Nice having a fishing partner who is retired as they always have the time to go fishing when I can. Been on this forum for years and have learned lots of different things and fished with a few members. I know sometimes I am pretty active on here but lately work has been fairly busy so sadly not as active as I would like. Definitely been a pleasure for sure.
  11. I haven't tried it yet personally but I do love the Hardy Ultralite series of reels. Sadly that came out just after my most recent Hardy purchase.
  12. Maybe something for the lower back. Back Extension or dumbbell good mornings. Don't need anything heavy just lots of repetitions. I know my dad who is quite a bit older has some back exercises he does on one of those big yoga balls and he has found it allows him to enjoy longer days.
