  1. I want your a professional opinion what the rules are on a situation that drives me crazy whenever I see it.

     

    The shore fishermen at the local trout lake around grande prairie always catch and keep fish which isn't a bad thing, but it drives me crazy when they land them and immediately run a stringer through the gills and tie them of and throw them back out in the water and let them swim around while they continue fishing for the day. Then they possibly try releasing that fish if the catch a bigger/nicer...whatever there reason would be.

     

    Regulations say if you plan to retain a fish it must be killed quickly as soon as it is out of the water.

     

    Does fish and wildlife get involved in these situations?

     

    I ask them politely if they plan to keep it and to stop it from suffering but they basically tell you to go @#$@ your self. There's no reasoning with them and i'm a passive person that does not want to initiate a physical confrontation.

  2. Had the chance to get away and spend the weekend in jasper, tossing flies to hungry bull trout. The fishing picked up after the rain/sleet/snow and hail passed through and the sun came back out. Biggest one I found was 26", so my quest for 30" plus continues, I may have to head south to Kinbasket or west to Williston Lake come summer time.

  3. Looking for someone to tie some "go to" bull trout flies that i can purchase. I love fly fishing and i am planning to go on an adventure for them this fall and could use the help. All the flies i find in stores are not the greaest selection up in grande prairie. Pm me and we can work something out

  4. I am looking to do most of my fishing in the grande cache area this year and was wondering what would be the top 3 bull trout flies i should be swinging.

    I dont tie my own so recommendations that i can pick up at a fly shop would be great
