Official Flames 2008/2043 Seasons Thread
acurrie replied to SanJuanWorm's topic in General Chat - Not Fishing Related (NFR)
LOL, your right... That is exactly how it seemed! -
Northwest fly fishing is my favorite Mag. Always has good locations and all of them (pretty much) are within a 24 hour drive. I also really like Canadian fly fisher, but they only release 4 Mags a year.

Anyone else see Dustin Penner act like a jackass to Scott Oak... man, that guy is a douche. -
Awesome dude, they look good. I'm a novice myself, it sure is a lot of fun when fishing just isn't in the equation. -Drew

Wow, I actually called it correctly! It was a great game, but it was tough to watch the 3rd period. -

We should probably change the title of the thread to 2009/2010... just a suggestion -

Where are you from??? the Bahamas??? No toque or hand warmers needed man... I think its only gonna be minus 7 or something... All kidding aside, fishing should be pretty good, especially in the evening with Big White streamers! Drew

I just got my 2nd vice from Wholesale. It was $30 and it has worked great. I don't expect it to last more than 2 years, but for 30 who cares. Yeah, when you buy all the tools and materials separate you will save a lot of money vs. a tying kit. If you want to know what to buy let us know. Best way to pick materials is pick your top 10 flies and get the recipe, but there are also some "must have" items (peacock hurl, pheasant tail, certain thread colours, beads, hooks..etc etc). Like the others have said.. Be careful! I just started like 4 months ago, and I could probably open my own fly shop with the amount of materials I have now...lol. But it is very rewarding to catch fish with your own flies! (especially when it is your first cast!) Drew

the guy who played "sphinx" in the movie "Gone in 60 seconds" is a hard core fly fisher. OO, his name is Vinnie Jones. He's also in all those Guy Ritchie Films (Lock, Stock and 2 smokin barrels; Snatch..etc etc)

All those patterns look awesome. I'm gonna give some Intruders a try, they look like they would have a lot of "life" in the water. Here are a few patterns I've been tying. Kinda taking a few idea's here and there. My Camera is brutal at close range so the quality sucks. #1 #2 #3: I call this one "Team Canada!" #4 And here is a Pic of a Bull I picked up on #2 this last Friday... So it works! Woohoo Only 10 more days to Go..... Drew

Thanks for the suggestions, I'm in the process of trying to tie some up!

Me too!!! but earlier sucka! Sept 12th!

Just wondering if anyone has any Deceiver recipes that they wouldn't mind sharing for some Steelhead and Coho fishin. I know Steelies generally like Purple and pink and Coho like Chartruesse, orange and silver but not sure how to put it together. I'm gonna try and tye up a whole bunch of streamers before heading up to the Skeena in a few weeks. Thanks! Drew

Awesome man, I'll be up in Terrace in early--->Mid September for some Steelhead, Coho, pink etc etc action! (hopefully). I'll have to try and tie a few of those patterns before I head up, never been before! If the water is off colour I hear the "purple Tagger" is a good pattern, they tied it during an episode on "Sport fishing on the fly"

Hey Max, When you heading out to B.C? Great lookin flies!

I was listening in the car and with like 20 seconds left Calgary scores and I was like "YES" we won. I turned the car off, walked up to my condo and grabbed a drink, turn on Sportscenter for highlights to watch all the awesome catches (Copeland). They finally showed Copelands catch.. But wait.. highlight package not over...... AND the Deadmonton Eskies score... I couldn't believe we managed to lose that game. Drew -
You really hate perch don't you... LOL But i know you love to eat them!

So, I was down at the highwood yesterday morning and caught a sizable "fish" about 19-20 inches long on a Double Bunny pattern in a deep pool. The fish looked pretty much like a rainbow, black spots on the dorsal fin...etc etc. But, it had White slashes on the anterior part of the Bottom Fins (pectoral??) with a red Hue very much like a Bull Trout. Plus it was quite hefty and had larger teeth than any rainbow I'd caught before. Now maybe it all in my imagination, but it looked like a Bow/ Bull cross?? if thats even possible. My camera is dead so I don't have a pic. Any thoughts? Drew
