The leafs game is going to participate. Leafs are out anyway lol

More info on earth Hour - http://www.wwf.ca/earthhour/ Saturday March 29 8pm - 9pm Something to do - It's all part of the "citizen science experiment" the centre is running that encourages people to look at the Little Dipper at 8:45 p.m. and 9:15 on March 29 – once during Earth Hour and once after the lights come back on – and submit their findings at www.redshiftnow.ca/starwatch, to see where the greatest impact occurred.

Nice looking tie Don. Reminds me of the Catatonic leech as well.

I'm sure I'll make this list sometime, but I hope Dave makes it first. http://failblog.wordpress.com/

I've never worried about getting the gear wet. It happens a lot when I'm in a tube or pontoon. Like Kerry mentioned, a bit of mainteneance should keep everything working well. I did have one cheap reel get some dirt inside the click, but it wasn't sealed at all. I just cleaned out the reel and re applied some lube. Works like new now.

Thanks Guito

I didn't actually fish, just went down to check things out. There were a few nice looking steelhead pulled out and a CO checking and taking picks of everyones catches. It's crowded like this because there is only a couple hundred meters you can fish in season right now.

A murder of crows on the Crow?

That looks like some prime water. Nice Brown.

ikea has some good ones, I also found a bit larger one from Michael's a few weeks ago.

Some simple flies to tie off the bat are San Juan Worms, Griffith's Gnats, Wolly Buggers, Wolly Worms, Sawyer Nymphs and CDC and Elk flies. All of these flies are pretty simple and are quite fishable even if they don't turn out perfect. My first fly caught trout was on a little size 14 griffith's Gnat I tied the first week I started tying. Good luck.

I have the Ekich as well and Love it. I have about 25 other bobbins that don't get used anymore. You get about 24" if thread once you reset it and you can tie most trout flies without having to reset the spool (Which is easy to do one handed with a bit of practice). Mine has been used for about 8,000 flies or more since I got it and it is still working great. They are made in Canada as well. http://www.automaticbobbin.com/

Click here if the movie does not play. Nice Tie.

Here is one to try out. - http://flytyer.wordpress.com/2008/03/22/cr...awdad-crayfish/

Awesome, Looks like fun. Thanks for all the work you have put into the KOTV.

That's not a surprise. We seen the same thing last time I ws there, not long after the spill.

lol I wouldn't want to be a poacher eating fish from that lake. There are some nice fish there though.

Hey Steve. I met you at the Dieppe show last year. There are lots of great people on the board here, I'm sure that you will be able to hook up with some angler's for a few trips. There is the Hook and Hackle club in the city that meet once or twice a month. One of the members can likely provide some more detail. I guess this means there will be one less angler on the rivers when I get down to the island to fish this year. lol

that is spooky. Looks like a headless deer.

I spoke with Melanie Fischer at the Calgary show and she told me they have a new fly fishing / fly tying froup that has formed in Whitecourt called the Whitecourt Castaways. they meet every 2 weeks and tie flies during the winter and have fishing get togethers during the softwater months. If you are interested in getting some more information on the group, you can get in touch with Melanie or Ian Bews. flyfischers _at_ hotmail _dot_ com

No Way, that was awesome. Thanks for the video link Clive.

Those are decent maps, I haven't looked them up in a while, but they have improved the service quite a bit since my last visit. Thanks for the link.

There are some nice day hikes down by the Little Elbow campground (just before, I can't remember the names) into a large cave and lots of loops in the area. One other I really liked was the ribbon creek trail, at the end there is a short climb using some chains upto a small lake. There is lots of info once you get into the park as well.
