New to Calgary fishing - need advice
ÜberFly replied to Sacha's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
Sacha, The Bow can be a tough river to figure out. Consider hiring a guide. It will make things easier, lessen the learning curve and you will learn much faster then figuring out things on your own... Cheers, Peter The Alpine Experience -
Welcome to the new Alberta, unfortunately!!

Apparently someone was on CBC this morning... I'll have to listen to the archive...

Looking For A Guide Thats Not Terry Johnson
ÜberFly replied to BigFoamy's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
Too many guides (experienced and inexperienced, alike) put on a triple worm rig and dredge the bottom to get their clients into fish... Is that lazy or good business practice? -
Be sure to bring your own reels with the line you normally use!

Best to go cast a bunch (if that's possible for you). As I'm sure you know, what works for one may not be the best for someone else... I use Winston rods and had 5 wt, 6 wt, 8 wt & 10 wt BIIIx rods (which are medium fast action rods) in my quiver. While my wife and I were taking a casting lesson with Linda McLennan (to improve our casts for a salt trip to the Corn Islands in Nicaragua) she noticed that they were too soft for my casting stroke... So I purchased Winston Plus rods for me (which are fast action rods) and now cast much further, smoother and more accurately. Thankfully the BIII

OK to fish on Poplar Island or is it off limits?
ÜberFly replied to Chunky's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
Yes the entire island is off limits, but you can access the water via the shore (not the bank), just can't step on the land. Though there are better stretches of water to fish!! -
Yup felt on the Bow, and be sure to get studs for your rubber soles!!

crowds on the eastern slopes.

Add to the fact that there is one idiot that has started a "Random Camping (Crown land) Facebook Group"... Just what everyone needs more rednecks disrespecting the outdoors (yes I'm making a huge judgment with that statement)!! -
I actually have pulled Landtitles (or have copies) for "Sara's" (the land mentioned above) and for a place on the JP, proving them wrong when confronted (hasn't come to that, but I'm prepared)... P

Must Be Nice Island Friday night

No, a guide that was floating by (pleasure trip) saw it smouldering and put it out as well as picked up al their garbage!! -
My Thoughts of Drift Boat Fishing & Guiding 2020
ÜberFly replied to 1961flyman's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
Pretty much all of my clients have cancelled (all from the U S)... They said they will all book with me next year (I have given refunds, a few wanted credits for next year)... I know most (in both the Mountain Guiding stream and fishing guides) are in the same boat (no pun intended). AEP and Parks Canada haven't even approved my permits... That's after I've paid for my Kananaskis Business License and liability insurance... I'm already in the hole and doubt I'll bring in any revenue... Tax loss this year, I guess... -
If anyone knows who camped on Must Be Nice Island Friday night, please punch them in the face!! Apparently they didn't put out their fire Saturday morning!!
