  1. So I'm going to try and pull some Walleye throught the ice at Lesser Slave this weekend and am thinking about taking some bare jigheads and trying to tye something onto it that a walleye or whatever else might smack at. Anyone tried this before? If so, how'd it work? Any thoughts welcome! Bill
  2. Anyone had their vehicle undercoated here in Calgary before? Looking for a reccommendation for a spot to get mine done at. Thanks!
  3. To follow up on the thread about water quality and fish biomass in the Bow River, I thought I'd pass on this link to a real short report put out by some of the guys at the U.S.G.S. in Iowa City that I used to work with. http://www.iowapolicyproject.com/2006docs/...-USGS-ExSum.pdf It talks briefly about contaminants from wastewater effluent that we don't always think about. Pharmaceuticals, for example. In work following up this report on numerous outings we actually were able to find physical and chemical evidence of antidepresents and hormones in the fish. Physcially, fish like the fathead minnow that in the males generally has very strong male features were becoming more feminized. In the white sucker, we found measuravle levels of antidepresants in their brains. As you might suspect, the upstream fish were free of these effects, and at and downstream from the plant outflow they were significant.
  4. Berkley 6 or 8 lb mono line for leeder. Berkley 4 or 6 lb mono line for tippet. Its cheap and works just fine for me!
  5. In case there was any doubt in my head that I wasn't a bit of a 'misfit' in my family; see my response to the spinning lady above, and read both my brother's and my father's response that they sent me via e-mail! Brother (younger I should add!): next question: what direction would the lady appear to be spinning if your corpus callosum (connection between halves of brain) were severed? what if viewing spinner in left visual field only (info only getting to right brain), right visual field only (info only going to left brain)? What? Father Hey Bud: Very interesting. Some of their generalizations have recently been shown as wrong, however. If you are interested, you should read "Theatre of the Mind" followed by "The Wisdom Paradox". For an opposing view (partially) try "The Making of Intelligence". . . . . . . you gotta do something on those long winter evenings!!!! Thanks dad - I think I'll tie flies instead! Don't get me wrong, we're a closer family than any other I know - just have different hobbies Glenbow - found the feet, thanks bud!
  6. She had feet? Where?
  7. Guilty as charged!
  8. I don't know about clockwise or counterclockwise, but I can see her nipples.
  9. I'm trying to find a good spot somewhere before hwy 2 and 24 on the Bow. Been looking at air photos on google maps and am thinking it looks not to bad via Range rd. access (half way between 2 and 24 on the N side). Anyone gone in there before or have suggestions for other good places to go in in that area? I'm worried about not being able to find good access due to private sections of land. Are you permitted to walk the river banks all the way up in down or are there private sections of the bow? Bill
  10. Thanks! But I can't take credit - this isn't one of my own. Cabela's purchase last spring! Bill
  11. One of the browns I hooked into yesterday did the same. Suprised the heck out of me - had 3 or 4 huge jumps and then returned my hook to me.
  12. If your plans don't involve fishing, you should change them! http://www.theweathernetwork.com/index.php...ef=wxeyewx14day
  13. Hey Crogg, Caught him (and the other 3 I hooked) on one of these little guys right here... (Only in real life its a lot smaller) Bill
  14. Path was steep, but not bad other than that. Wouldn't want to try use it if it were wet out at all though. Cya!
