catch up to you

I'm gonna

Chris, that's an amazing pic. I've seen griz's out in the K in the described areas a lot this spring. I talked to a CO out at the Lower K today that said they are responding to bear sightings out there almost daily now. Please keep this in mind all.

It was nice of them to photoshop in a nice fish in that pic too.

I've caught a few that looked like that pic in the Crow, kinda large fish to have parr marks, but there they were. Colourful little guys.

God, I love this thread.

It's why I don't watch vids I know I'm not gonna like. It's like watching the 6 o'clock news. Depressing.

Kinda depends on if yer talkin' Old Milwaukee or Schlitz.

Cage match. $5 bucks a ticket.

I like what's going on, our community of anglers is getting more diverse yet cohesive at the same time. More to offer, same low price. Gotta like that. It's still Fly Fish Calgary as a forum. Just my opinion. Good job to all those responsible.

Without even watching, I will tell you that if it bugs you from what you describe, then it'll bug me. I don't even want to see it.

It's like cutties on the dry in summer - reliable & easy! Sometimes ya just don't wanna work for it, ya know? I know this post is gonna bite my cuttie karma in the butt. Dern it.

Esleech, that makes my day. That is an awesome fish, and I have yet to get a cutty from the Lower. That is a truly excellent cutty. Nicely done!

MTB, To be honest, I fish the upper for more fish & I fish the lower when I wish to catch big fish. That being said, you can do both in the same day. BUT, the K lakes are notorious for being spotty, so one day can be on fire & the next day nada. Still, it is a great place to fish. The fish from both lakes are awesome, but like I said, the big boys are downstairs in the lower. They're just a lot harder to come by. As summer progresses, things change a lot in those lakes too, so what works today will not necessarily work next month or the month after.

Crappy luck, you almost shoulda stuck around & had the place all to yourself! I wonder if it did that all day or what. It has a habit of going on & off from what I've seen.

Oh Rickr, He has lots of relatives in that lake. Rainbow cousins too. I have a few 26+ rainbows from there, and they get much bigger than that in there. I believe GGP taped at 33" there last year. Unreal. Have fun!

That's nuts!

I was talking to BBT's mom & she said you were a real pussy-cat, SJW.

Birchy, That's a 5wt rod. And Weedy, that's a corkie with some Loon Bio-Strike around it to keep it from sinking. But I like the helium-filled crab apple story better. Hawg, you ever fish the Moyie anywhere between Moyie & the border? It looks so nice (& isn't classified) I wonder how it fishes. I get out that way a fair bit & haven't fished it yet. Same with the Goat near Creston.

My strike indicator is a rare helium-filled Creston Crab Apple. Only sold at Big Willy's Crab Apple & Fly Emporium. It's a trailer near Yahk. It's right beside Rockin' Mel's Rock Pile.

How about a contest to see who can catch a fish fly fishing with their opposite hand? For example, if you cast with your right hand, you have to cast with your left. (So we'll all look like we throw like a girl - no offense). This would CERTAINLY level the playing field, and we'd all look a lot less cool than we might think now. I already don't look very cool, so I have nothing to lose. I also have the fly-fisher farmer tan already in full swing, so attracting chicks is far from a possibility. I think my lady secretly thanks me for this each day. Oh, and we also all have to dress like Austin Powers. First one to get any fish at all wins.

Aw forgetit, let's just do the B & B contest. Best damn idea this year. I don't even care if I win. Or place. Or show. As long as somebody shows.

How 'bout best fish caught on least likely fly - like something that shouldn't normally work. Or we just all get together & judge the boobs & butt contest. Which I will of course enter, & if not win, then certainly place or show. Back to the first idea, for example, we could all have to purchase the Red Wolf multi-pack of rediculously crappy flies at Canadian Tire & actually fish them - best fish wins. We certainly can't have a Bow contest, as Toolman or Max will get my prize. (Sorry SJW). Besides, if I have a chance at winning I either have to have better boobs than Lynn or a better butt than Troutbabe, both of which I at least have a chance at..........(grin).

How 'bout a "Who Caught The Biggest Bull Trout Yesterday" contest?

Ron who? Grizz, I think you meant Peter North.
