Why does everyone always say more education not enforcement. Any one over the age of 16 is required to have a lic. and should already possess the education to READ the regs that EVERYONE knows exist. Fines are the way to go people know what they are doing they just don't care, but they sure seem to when you kick em in the wallet.

We have more than enough lakes were little Timmy can run up to Mommy and say look at what I caught! Than mom throws the prize in the nearest garbage can. This is a waste and more the norm for a meat fishery. Why is asking for a few QUALITY lakes infringing on the rights of others, I say not having them is infringing on mine.

I very rarely say anything on line but I have to chime in here. Guide licensing in Alberta BAD IDEA. First of all 90% of the guys can't agree on more than anything for more than 5 mins, but you expect people who are in competing business to buddy up? I owned a construction company for 10 years and never had any good dealings anyone in my field except for 1 and we are now partners. You ask for guide course? Who pays for them who runs them? First aid courses aren't free either. Special boat license plates that now govt involement that isn't gonna be cheap. So we have all heard how there "full time guides" don't make alot off coin believe me if they did it would be chosen line of work, but they don't. So how much more is gonna cost a guide per year run his business? who does that get passed along to the consumer. Which in these economic times I think having to raise the cost of a float 100/day is gonna effect the amount trips booked a year. You would also open the can of worms of gst now. Any company making over 30 000 per year is required to collect and submit gst. I bet you the guide tip goes down. again less money being made by the guides. And all these so called full time guides come on every one of them has a winter gig. There maybe seasonal guides but i dont see many boats in the bow in nov/dec. I too am a weekend warrior guide I have enjoyed takin some people out for there first time on the bow hell sometimes there first fish. I don't make the regular guide rate the people i take can't afford it. But I love it and can see no way in which I am taking any money out any ones pockets. f you wanna do something positive for the resource. Pick up the trash you see, use proper fish handling and call rapp when u see dumb sh t going on.

Ya because the people that are willing to drive that far aren't watching already. If it opens I'll fish it.

Here's a big brown I landed Sat. Taped out just over 24".

Check out the Pieroway Metal Detector 400 grain designed by Brian Niska. Throw a 400 Rio ASF Outbound on it and you have a deadly bow river stick. They can also be purchased in blanks if you prefer to build your own.

One word Thermostat.

You are more than welcome to try out any of mine on the water. Drop me a line and we'll hit the river.

The Simms dry fanny chest/fanny pack. The old d3000 survived enough swims in there to be replaced by a d90.

Heard about the Bow river decades ago in my home town of Leamington, Ont. Pretty sure my comodore 64 didn't get the interweb. Pretty sure you guys are just playing the blame game as is so common this day and age.

It was incredible.
