I'll make it if I can - would love to meet & fish with some more guys with the 2 handers. Who knows, we might even catch some fish or make a new drinking buddy.

I happened to find Spey Ghillie's bar stool after the Fly Expo - he must have left it behind. It's a genuine Scottish bar stool, made for the kilt-wearing crowd. Here's a picture of it.

Love the cane rod man! HApPy BiRthDay, daddy-o. May I suggest lighting the candles on the cake outside? Could be a fire hazard.

Good job Doc.

Cool. I'll take a dozen just 'cause I think they'll work.

I like fishing. EDIT Sorry to hijack the thread.

Ya, I'll go along as an independent witness. Really.

Super-sweet LK, you'll have a smokin' good time. Take lotsa pics for us to drool over man! Wow, an awesome year is planned for sure!

Bloom, did you mean evasive or invasive?

The only bulls worth catching are below the OM dam I hear.

It's not the fish's fault for their being where they are. It would be nice if we could find ourselves able to respect all species for what and where they are, regardless of how they got there. I think we all know that without the historical stockings that have taken place our fisheries would be nothing like they are now, for better or worse. I do think that new stockings of foreign species is something that we should lean away from rather than pursue. Pacific Salmon in the great lakes? Who thought of that?

I got my little heart set on some gold this summer, not sure just which lake yet. I might go south, I might go north, but if I go north it's heli all the way.

Tako, some might say the same of people. This isn't the "Bonk Fish Alberta Forum"

Thanks Russ, good to see you guys - it's been a while.

Shucks, people play ice tennis in this weather in Winnipeg. Part of the reason I don't live there anymore.

Sweet large mouth! I hafta say there's almost nothing as fun from freshwater as bass on the fly. I bet through a hole was pretty good too. Lets not talk too much bonking on here, eh? Nice catch Neil.

And don't lick it repeatedly.

Sorry lads, I scooped both bottles. It's gonna be winter for a while yet, now I have something to do.

To quote Dave, "On the Sheep" I thought I saw some of that in New Zealand.

Good seeing you guys down there today, thanks a lot to the folks who dropped in to say hi.

I think I'll go fri, sat, & sun.

Ya. It'll take you twice as long as before. It's darn near Fort McLeod. Not a fan of driving down there.

Bull Trout burgers are gonna be a hit.

I lost way more when our great Prime Minister broke his election promise & taxed income trusts. I will for ever be indebted to him for that.

I, on the other hand, will stay waaaay the hell away from those bugs. On a side note, I have used Intraspecific mimicry with a lady on a date when we were playing cards and the loser had to drink shots of vodka. She drank them, and I chucked them over my shoulder (we were outside on a picnic) and made a face like I just drank it - it was a tactic that paid dividends. I got to remember the events that followed! There was no mate-guarding to be wary of, and I have since returned to my own territory thereby eliminating the competing male's territory claims.
