  1. 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.
  2. The road isn't closed, only the east shoulder is washed out.
  3. Not really but I've taught myself to come in outta the rain without bein' called. At least my basement dry.
  4. Latest forecasters comment http://environment.alberta.ca/forecasting/ForecastersComments/forecasternotes.pdf
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Could be but the high catch rates they're braggin' on makes me think there's a helluva lot of fish in there since "someone" introduced the rainbows and the scuds only15 yrs ago. Very cold water + excellent feed source + year round spawning = high survivability with a bejesus boatload of fish. I like to know the age of some of those bigger fish. I'd almost bet they've 10 year olds or over. A trip to check'er out would be a hoot though but I ain't goin' unless I win the lottery and that would mean I'd hafta start buyin' tickets Edit; forgot No Natural Predators
  9. An all you can eat amphipoda buffet, best be gettin' your ass down there before it peaks and crashes

    Recalibrate

    Works for me ...
  11. Watch out with retirement projects/jobs... they have the gawdamnest way of turning into fulltime jobs. Ask me how I know.
  12. I used it on a beer thieving black bear and a couple of pissed off holstein bulls........all of them departed in a helluva hurry and seemed to learn a life lesson or two.
  13. What you do with your old Gs Dave? I think I'd kill to own a 6 wt G specially on days my 6wt Sages don't put me in a very happy place. Ex-Scott man Larry Kenney has a line of glass rods that are sweethearts. I fish a 4 and a 5 of his.
  14. And I forgot to add, we made our own pack frames in wood shop... spruce I believe.
  15. Jeez Peter ya ever heard of bookin' it Old School? Christ we used carry canned food, wool blankets in a canvas backpack
  16. Green fees? Me and golf don't get along. I start to get pissed off pullin' the bag outta the trunk..
  17. No worries guys, found some and thanks
  18. Anywhere to get some online on the Canadian side? Bears Den won't ship bear hair across the border
  19. Harf'n'harf, general rule of thumb; under 8' or so... glass, over 8.5ft... graphite
  20. That one you bought Kyle, is the one I kept breakin'. To this day I don't know what I was doin' wrong that rod didn't like, probably just a run of poor luck, bad planning.
  21. I'll be damned... learned something this mornin' other than colds make me irrimatated
