  1. Besides I get a woody everytime I think about shitty dizzily snowy falls days, damn few people, 6 hr bwo hatches and a river just boilin' with fish.....
  2. If ya didn't like the cake and pie comments you ain't gonna like this'n... I suppose you could always replenish them via hatchery trucks... the same way they got there in the first place. They really are no different than ringneck pheasants or grey partridges. Manage them for those who want to target them for their enjoyment but if they can't handle the conditions of a changing environment then I guess there will be an empty niche for some other species to occupy, hopefully a native one.
  3. I like banana cream pie more better
  4. Wow is right
  5. I'd count the line down and play with my retrieve with irregular 3"-4" strips
  6. Obviously obnoxious ogling and groping..... Sheesh! I gotta 'splain everythang
  7. I suppose... some people prefer masturbation as well
  8. When I go fissin', I turn the gawdamned phone off before I step into my truck leavin' the house.....
  9. One hybrid or rainbow shows up in a population pure cutthroat those cutthroat are no longer classed as pure
  10. Had a little 13"-14" bow t'other day come 2'-3' up and 5'-6' laterally and land splot in the bank mud, skidded him back into the water and then the little bugger had the nerve to break me off.
  11. Give new meanin' to chuck'n'duck too
  12. And try to not look too silly when climbin' in the left side door and then realizin' all the essential go Vroom! Vroom! stuff is over there on the right side..... don't ask.....
  13. Fer cry's sake they're cutthroat 1. Adams #12 2. Klinkhammer #12 3. Adams #14 4. Klinkhammer #14 5. Adams #16 6. Klinkhammer #16 7. Adams #18 8. Klinkhammer #10 9. Parachute Adams #14 10. Joe's Hopper
  14. Jesus!.. Al's damn near as old as me, a cougar to him would be out and out spooky... no matter the venue
  15. I still have most of a small pump bottle Deep Woods 100% Deet tucked in my pack. Couple short pumps will keep a 30' circle skeeter free seems like. Works on horseflies, deerflies, blackflies and no-see-ums too
  16. The only thing that makes bobbers and a 20' leader easier to throw is a 25 foot rod............
  17. My rough rule of thumb ; Look for a furled leader about 1 1/2'-2' shorter than the length of the rod then add tippet to get the total length of leader you want to fling but I don't find furled leader length to be hyper critical for the the way I fish. I buy mine from a guy in Texas for about 8 bucks apiece, double for fluorocarbon.
  18. Deet on skin is still preferable to a west nile bout, watched it, ain't pretty and 4 yrs later the guy can still barely walk to end of the block.
  19. That'n been that way for a year. Supposed to be fixed to the falls sometime this summer. Above the falls I have no idea, its SLS responsibility. There's 2 highend 5th wheelers sittin' 10 km above the falls since last June.
  20. The road isn't closed, only the east shoulder is washed out.
  21. Not really but I've taught myself to come in outta the rain without bein' called. At least my basement dry.
  22. Latest forecasters comment http://environment.alberta.ca/forecasting/ForecastersComments/forecasternotes.pdf
  23. Flood predictions are about downgraded somewhat because of overly enthusiastic forecasts of rainfall amounts and areas. Still kinda soaked though. One plus. I found Alberta Rivers app for iOS and Android. Kinda handy
  24. Ah hell,.. don't think I've got anything figgered when it comes to friggin lakes, i think it just happened... you know, like *hit happens....may need more flies though.
  25. Way too friggin' many! Showed up at a reservoir today carryin' maybe 4-500 flies and 2 rods. Changed flies once on each rod and caught a couple dozen fish on a single generic searching pattern in 3 hrs.
