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.

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.

Fishteck It depends on what side you access it from. From the north yes. From the south no and the problem is with the tenant on the land to the south who thinks its ok to let his hell hound threaten people who are on crown land. The insane thing Is these dogs both have shock collars and the land owner chooses to sit and watch while his dog holds a person in their place in the river for a few minutes and then he calls them back. Its totally disgusting.

Nice build Tungsten. Your designs are getting a lot more simplistic.

So Monger its basically the same stuff you use to make those RAD friendship bracelets you hand out to all your closest friends.
-
I agree with Jay dungeon is great for getting a chase but often the trailing clouser gets the hit. Great fly for fishing a combo.
-
I used the same rod on a few rivers in the skeena system last year and it is a good rod. Fish tales has a kit full of all different lines that you can rent for the day and go out to figure out which one you like the most.

Jay. if it was the one im thinking of that was listed on kijiji congrats thats a nice one.

I think a lot of people are missing the point of this show.
If you don't like to talk to people and you are just there to LOOK your probably going to be happiest when you leave.
However if you took the opportunity to talk to some of the best fisher people in the industry and pick their brain, if you took advantage of the fact the you had hundreds of rods to cast and find the one that fit you, If you took the time to attend seminars then you probably felt like the show is an incredible opportunity and you were sad to see it wrap up.
Im a big fan of the show. I think if you go for knowledge and to build relationships its a huge win. When i started out fly fishing i would spend the whole weekend at the seminars it took my game to the next level and gave me the foundation i needed to get started.
I just cant figure out how someone can go there and not cast at least a dozen rods on the pond. That is by far my favorite part. Looking forward to next year.

since catching the Steelhead bug last year all my time and $$ are saved for my return.
Before going last year i had been able to fish with a couple of guys who have been all over the world and fished many of the premium destinations. I have asked both, out of everywhere they have been where if they had to pick one place would they return to, both with out hesitation said BC Steelhead and Alaska are a tie. I know its different strokes for different folks but it says a lot. We don't have to go very far to have a world class experience.

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