I think that's probably "Jack" Simpson - no matter. I'm a little biased but the Amundson is a great stick. Enjoy BK

Shoot Clackacraft an Email. They'd probably have an idea. OR - look in the yellow pages under boat repairs and phone one of them. OR - Give lisa a can of cut wax and a box of rags. BK

Jeez that's scary. The young fella's a nice guy but Calgary isn't ready for Jack. Jack- pretty much everything said above (not including noise, drinking and swearing) is pretty sound advice. Traffic here can be a bear, so location can be important. Later BK

YAHOO SWEEEEEP

Colin The other thing they didn't tell you is that it's your job to teach Rob how to stay in the boat.

Nice looking 'toons. they will look great when clear coated. If you're going to use it on the river, a layer or two of fiberglass would be a good idea.

Fishing maybe, but catching??????? and he is that old

A fellow on the BC board has a signature that about sums it all up quote- "The Tug Is The Drug". We've all lost big fish in the past and will lose more in the future. The first 10 seconds is where the adrenilin gets pumping. I hate losing fish but even when you lose them, the memory lasts a long time. Headscan is right. it could get boring if it was easy. I bet that all of the posters who described losing a fish in such vivid detail don't remember a landed fish that well. BK

Jeez guys....3 fish sounds like a lot for the two of you :Hi jack:

Had a bud spend around $500 on a decent solar charging system for his boat battery, during extended trips. Battery was flat dead in 3 days. Told him to quit trying to charge it over night !! Had to be Bruce T :

Well done Jack I'm sure the winners will enjoy the rods. I cast the 5wt at the show and thought it worked quite well. Roll casts like a hot damn. BK

Don After reading through the backgrounder, it appears that Rotenone is not 100% successful. Is there a reason for this or just luck of the draw? BK

Not me Harry, I would never let you row a minute more than your share.

Don I'm not nearly as old as you and I remeber the vinyl stuff. Question is, where do we get it? BK

I've had pretty good luck with the anti-static bags and different colors of flashaboo. You can change the color of the anti-static bugs by wrapping the hook with different threads. I coat 95% of my chronnies with brushable loctite. Makes 'em shiny and tough. BK

Jack Pick me I reeeeaaally reeeaaally need a new chronnie rod. BK

After looking at the pics of the chronies, here's a tip When you're tying in the anti static bag, trim the end of the strip at about 30 degrees giving your self a long point on the end. Tie it in at the back of the fly by the very tip. This keeps the body slimmer at the back. Tying the bag in along the whole length of the hook can add too much bulk. BK

:Hi jack: Aw Jeez, Simpson found our sight. Welcome Jack BK

If Brownstone can't help you, shoot me a PM as well

Stop and talk to Rod at the fly shop. Very helpful guy.

Dick, that rod is gorgeous BK

I'd catch more if you'd show me your "secret spot" Weedy1 So now it's at 1000+ Is that 4 people looking 250 times or 250 people looking 4 times. BK

The Bow River has no secret spots, however some people post expecting to be told what rock to stand on. When I first started fishing the Bow, a buddy took me out and basically showed me how to fish it, not where. It was up to me to figure out access and location. I still enjoy looking for a new pece of water that might hold fish. At present there have been 525 people view this thread. Post about a spot that is relatively unknown (not the Bow) and see how many of the 525 viewers fish that spot in the next two weeks. I don't have any secret spots, just a few known places that are good fishing. If you look back since I started posting on boards, I've never posted a fishing report but I have sent people PM's and Emails offering locations. If you want to see your favorite spot full of people, post a fishing report or location on here and see how long it is before your spot is too busy to fish. My $.02 BK

Apparently there's damage to the wall between the two stores, making repairs a little more complicated.
