Yes they are stone cased

I like pumpkin. some I will put a dark CDC collar on but usually im pressed for time so I make it simple. Size is an inch on a #12 scud hook. Some I do a hot orange wire wrap. Really when you are fishing fast water I find the fish are less picky.

you would be amazed at how well a small orange jimmy legs works. Or a 2 toned jimmy 3/4 dark 1/4 orange. I find the absolute best way to fish the October caddis hatch is during their migration (early august) fast water 1 to 2 feet. They crawl with their case to shore and hang out there till emergence. Last year the hatch was the biggest ive seen on the Bow.

Just Call it in.

lets go!

Jpinkster I think that's what I said. Listen to the members and then present the plan that will execute their goals. You are right the party hasn't been in touch or represented the membership in many years. Hence why they barely exist now. I do however disagree with your perspective on the Leader. The party needs someone the public will believe in. I think the difference will be how that leader leads.

For the record. I do hope Kenny falls on his ass.I am not for unite the right. I am tired of a Party that needs to fix itself, rebuild its relations with the public and clearly send a message of who they are since they got their ass kicked. WHERE IS THE CHANGE IN THE PARTY THE PUBLIC SO BLATANTLY REJECTED? Who are they going to be? I think you are right 90% of the public want to support a "NEW" progressive party not a re-mashup of an old split PC party, but not the one we had....They sucked. Where is the "new" PCs? THAT is what the public want and there is NOTHING......crickets. In comes Kenny opportunity lost. Nice one PCs, Nice. What the water cooler talk is.......We need to be introduced to a party with a CLEAR agenda of "HOW WILL THEY FIX IT". The party needs to come out with a STRONG political leader that will paint the picture of what Alberta is going to look like in 4 years (Its going to be an ugly picture). THEN deliver the message of what they will do to recover. That is what people want and they want it now. We are in the crisis now and we need the message. We need someone to hope for and if the party gets support now for "The Plan" that party will win. REPENT. The PCs need to first repent and admit they know what the public rejected and then REVEAL who they will be going forward,then rebuild support on "The Plan". I think the leader selected will either make or break the PC party.

Jpinkster It is funny to me to hear people who participate in their party talk about what needs to happen. They are blinded by the community they surround themselves with and they focus on they party goals instead of what the majority of the public want to see in a party. A party unwilling to conform to what the majority of the public want to see will never rebuild. Politicians need to get out of their community of other politicians who all think the same, leave your table and stick your head into some real conversations at the water cooler. Edit: I guess its not fair for me to leave this without sharing where I lean. BigBowTrout i support your message. Especially the part where we "get on with this". Albertans are ready NOW for action and to see what party is going establish themselves to "save us" from the NDP. Jason Kenny is Fricken brilliant he beat both parties to the punch. Took a page out of old Trumps play book and has a GREAT chance to go all the way with it. Alberta wants a new right. It astounds me that the PC's did not get this message last election and if they did .......well crickets. It was something they needed to do now, make drastic change, get in the media, rally the people. Only media i have seen is Brian Jean and at the end of every interview or broadcast ..."oh ya and Ric Mciver had something to say but we forget what it was." Heck Danielle Smith gets more air time than the PCs these days. PC's got DESTROYED! and sat around while they vanished from Alberta politics Jason Kenny comes along and PCs get more attention than they have had in almost a year and the PCs be like "WE AINT GONNA CHANGE PISS OFF KENNY" and they send an old party face to give the message. PCs have a million ways to spin this windfall and no leadership that knows how to turn this into gold. If you ask me same old party no change in sight. NO desire to "get on with it".

If things start to close up here I might have to take a trip there. Thanks for sharing. Very cool.

I second Old Macdonald. Great fishing for Pike. They have a nice beach. I haven't ever heard of a blue green algae problem there its a really big lake. Our kids get mad when we go anywhere else, they would live there if they could.

Gravel bars that dump into deeper water,, there's loads of them

you have to realize Monger fishes with 0x for everything he just drags those beasts around.

I said the same thing until I was introduced to steelhead... Now all my fishing cash goes to BC.... Sucks.

It only takes a couple minutes and if you are like me I had to Google what ward I'm in and it took me directly to a link to contact my councilor. PLEASE send them a quick note asking them to support the River Access strategy on Monday. This is your chance to make the river better.

Cody you are welcome to go out with me anytime for free. Send me a message we can plan something.

If people don't stop making a big deal out of this then it will all get shut down. So I guess you have to ask yourself what you are going to do. The way I see it going down is, people wont leave it alone. The offices that currently manage theses areas and would love to see them shut down use the out cry as justification to close the areas. Next everyone who took the time to complain lose their F'ing minds because of the closure and then its 2 years of planning and negotiation from user groups to get them re-opened. Next everyone is driving in the River again because there is still no enforcement and the offices who manage them could really care less until people start to complain again.

A friend of mine used to have the garbage contract for there but he sold his company and the contract was terminated. Pretty much they cant find a contractor willing to do it because the bin is not accessible by truck and you have to hand balm it to empty the bin. If they made it so a truck could come and tip a bin, It wouldn't be a problem. It is managed by Fish and Wildlife.

This is going to get everything shut down. I would just leave it alone. Soon the launches will be 22, legacy, carsland. That makes for some really long or short floats. It would make a jet boat a real option for many.

I have the Jet Switch 5/6 with a perfect its a good set up. The Jet Switch is an amazing rod its not a fast action stiffy. It loads very nice. The entire Jet line up is really an amazing rod. I first put a skagit set up on it and I hated it. Went with the switch chucker and it is the perfect line for everything you are looking to do. Nymphing with it is fine but you don't have the line control you have with a single hand. Streamer fishing is really fun with a switch. Biggest bonus for me is it takes a fraction of the effort to cast and I have a screwy shoulder that can inflame and get sore. It really saves the joints.

The house is Condemned and abandoned it has been beyond salvage for many years. The owner passed away and the property was just one of many that was part of a very large estate managed by a firm left to his children. There was a caretaker but he stopped with the contract and then it was left to rot. Until last year a development company bought all the land and I don't know what their plans are for it but I imagine they could care less about the house as its going to get demolished sooner than later as it becomes a liability for them. There is a home owner at the top of the hill that does try to keep an eye on the place and will call the RCMP when the need arises.He is a super nice guy and just asks very nicely for people not to trespass. Kids in the surrounding area are the problem not river users the home owner at the top of the hill says its a thing with the high school kids to go down at night. Apparently its haunted.

You are such a Bad Ass..... You're going to make heads explode! stop it.

I find it interesting if you look at just the performance ratings and the BVK drops rank quite a bit. Its like they say in the summary. If you have the cash buy the good stuff.

what in the world could you possibly need more flies for Rick!! lol.

If you loan it out with exchange of payment or if there is any payment for services you must have commercial insurance. Its about 700 to 1000 a year and not hard to get but necessary.

Hey silver do you take orders
