  1. yep, K lakes strikes again..she's a tough fish some days, Ive been a few times and only had a couple days where I got into any fish..
  2. IMO-If your using anything under a 5wt on the Bow, your playing the fish too long...(for most fish anyway)...
  3. Did'nt Bowie write a song about that?
  4. That'd explain the abundance of algae...cool...
  5. Thanks TM, wondering if there is one for the day by day activity in Finland..
  6. Anybody know a site where you can find out whats going on in the World Flyfishing Championships in Finland?
  7. no problem to get a boat in the lower..I'd imagine the upper is the same..lots of water..
  8. glad to hear you got your wheels back weedy, guy tried to steal my pick-up couple years ago in a work camp in the bush no less..he should have got it but i think he was too messed up to realize he had to push in the clutch to fire it up...not so much the damage as the feeling of violation for me..good luck..
  9. oh..and tie on some heavy leader with a good knot (I use 10lb out there)..cause those bullys know how to bust ya off right quick...
  10. shipping and maybe customs would jack that 61 usd up quite a bit..somebody got a good deal though..
  11. If your after the Bulls, throw every streamer you got. change it up lots, fast, slow, deep, shallow.
  12. Im gonna call the heli guys tommorw and get some info, occupancy, how much gear you can pack, availablity etc.. I'll post when I get some details..
  13. That's beautiful..Im in for a fly in end of summer..
  14. oh..thought you had put it up for auction on here..lol..funny though..sombody will put it to good use im sure...
  15. Thanks for the report GB..nice fish...
  16. Now I'm ichin' for July 3rd to come to fish the Rock... 1. Lomand River, Gros Morne National Park 2. Stove from Lee Wulff's old cabin (c.1955), Portland Creek 3. Pair of silver bullets...
  17. How in the hell did you get that close to a Puffin? or you got some sort of super zoom lens..If you were on the east coast, Moose are not quite as plentiful there as central or the west coast..I took my GF out to Bay Bulls last summer when I went home to see the Birds and Humpbacks, she was kinda nervous that we were chasin somthing bigger than the boat...she did pretty good for a farm girl from Saskatchewan..great pics as always Clive... PS..can i copy that picture of the Puffin?
  18. Trout ya..Techniqually, Brookies, Bulls, Dolly Varden and Lakers are all Char..but nobody seems to regard to them as this..I think the reason for the 2 Brookie limit is to thin them indeed, mainly because of the hardiness of the fish, it can seem to survive better than other species...
  19. Already better than June '05, I lucked out as this was the GF's weekend off, so it would have been a tough sell to go for opening day anywhere..the inclimate weather made it that much easier
  20. What's wrong with Brookies?.. IMO - they are a great game fish, they are the best looking trout, and can grow to be huge in the right conditions..Brookies are not native to Alberta because it's so high up..these fish came from the east where in most places they live at or not more than 200 m above sea level, put them @ +2000M above SL and they only thrive in the best of conditions..and any one who has ever eaten them will tell you..hands down the best tasting trout out there..well maybe close second to sea run...Brookies rock!!! and if you want to bash stocked trout...then the Athabasca is the only system in Alberta with "native" Rainbows..the most popular fish in AB...
  21. Newfie speed bump? homesick? .. this is one ya won;t see anyplace else brudder...
  22. Can't say much about the G-Loomis, but I know your not going to find a better rod for the price than a TFO..they are great rods and the warrenty cannot be beat..great service right here in town..It's rare if they can't replace your rod right on the spot...
  23. No problem..sweet pics..love the colors in that beach pic..
  24. I've been told your not a true Caper till ya fall down the stairs at Smooth Herman's ...
