Sd, I wonder what the affect of a high whitefish take has. Not sure if it provides more habitat/less competition for cutties or if it means more cutties on the menu. Anyways, will be nice to see barbless on those streams. Gag a little when I see dufus hero shots with lipless 14” cutts.

I get a real kick outta the statement "I HAVE A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF TBE CONSERVATION CONCERNS AND SPECIE RECOVERY EFFORTS IN ES1" Which means, those that done agree with them are ........ Gotta wonder if those that created this survey have an "understanding" Don

Very sad to hear. Always enjoyed my time at the shop! All the best to Mike and the rest of the staff.

Gang, I wanted to share an update with you all. So I heard from my colleague at work who purchased a gift certificate before Christmas and she followed-up with Mike via Facebook. Apparently he’s followed up with her and says he will do something for her ( I don’t have the details yet), and I’m hoping that he does ( no reason to think otherwise at this point)... I will keep you all informed on the details when I speak with her. P

Thanks for posting - I shared a lot of the same thoughts re: single barbless hooks in cutthroat/bull streams, increased enforcement, implementing a tag system for non-residents in sensitive headwaters/popular tailwaters, giving browns fall spawning protection in the bow upstream of whd and in the elbow, and (might not make friends with this one) closing the bow mainstem near the highwood mouth in the spring. I disagreed with the “recovery is more important than angling” proposition (that was on the north central survey as well, and they are shutting down those systems). I would like to think we can have both with properly managed C&R if other impacts are mitigated.

Interesting development: Cannimed cancelled shareholder vote on Newstrike. Perhaps they seen the writing on the wall with the 38% lock up and the 2% that aurora has purchases in the last month. Only need 11% voter confidence. If this became a merger vs hostile....this could quickly make the two the largest marijuana company in Canada. Could boast very well for the stock price. If it doesn't happen, I think aurora will grow, but most likely at a more moderate pace.
