well I stand by my predictions made at the start of the season. We did literally nothing last off season save trading our most solid defensemen. It showed. We got outshot most games and had trouble getting the puck out of our own end. Kipper was a freekin STUD in net this year and the ONLY one who deserves a paycheck. I have been on the "blow the team up" side for at least a year and this season just served to anger me even more as a fan. I couldn't watch most games as these fat old "vets" watched younger players with more heart on opposing teams skate around their tired lazy old fat paycheck grabbing azzes. Until this team starts playing with the same kind of passion that *I HAVE* for hockey... I am done with them. Will I become a fan of another team? Probably not... but it sure is becoming hard to watch hockey at all. Look at the philly - pittsburg series right now for an example of how hocley should be played. I never saw a game like those ones all year.

Awesome! Hey that must have been you with the tan dog .. you made a good choice to turn around as we bumped into a few more folks up that way and there were 4 of us. We did OK with a couple beauts too. Nice shots! That hive was freaky. The size of the opening made me wonder how bloody big was the queen bee?

I might want to consider building an ark before June hits with that waterton snowpack. Those mountains just west of me are WHITE... it even LOOKS deep from 35km away.

Through my observations I find this to be true on the Bow as well.

Brilliant. some of the best I have ever seen, for sure.

Well someone does have to play the devils advocate. Dutchie and all site sponsors pay pretty big bucks to be one of a few that are allowed to (or suposed to be the only ones allowed to) post links to ANY website, or company name, or website name, etc on here. Without that priveledge, why be a sponsor? From an advertisers perspective, if you pay for something (exclusive rights to it) and the company you paid allows others to use it freely, wouldn't you be upset? This guy may not be a "comapny" per se (yet), but you are still on here branding that name right now, for free. My 2 cents.

The "stick from my ...." would be removed if people would actually pay up like the company I worked for did to post anything on this site which has company names, website names, or LINKS IN THEIR SIGNATURES. I honestly don't even know why Dutchie pays for the site when it seems nothing is being done about all the siggys which link to non-sponsor sites anyways these days. Plus I see adds in the sponsor section which are not from a listed site sponsor from time to time as well. Might as well get in on the free ride instead of paying to support this site? I mean come on folks. Support your site sponsors, the ones who PAY for this service. Telling us to lay off is ridiculous. My 2 cents.

But you DID limit out that day we hope

"will this thread EVER end?"

check your messages

LOL welcome aboard and your username is classic

Is this a photo post or an add? I'm not the forum police but I do work for a site sponsor, and I dont quite see ya as a site sponsor. SPONSORS LISTED HERE

Great pics Max. I know what day you got that Bull, it was nice to see ya. Great fish!! .. Hey did the CO's end up showing up and checking that crew with what appeared to be their bait poles and lawnchairs out? I wish we would have made the call but since we didn't know for SURE if they were doing anything wrong we elected not to as we drove over the bridge we just had a quick glance.

For anyone who is against sharing info, how many people appreciate the times when Maxwell posts about the bow and what's working? He tells you what types of water the fish are moving into, and what flies they are having luck on. I bet HUNDREDS of people from here appreciate the hell out of those reports and use them to increase their chances of success on the Bow. When I used to run bowcrows website I ran daily reports on there too. Thousands of hits a month of the page for river conditions (updated daily). Helping people catch fish and enjoy the bow is what guys like max and I and others who guide do, we love the river and love to share info about it so that everyone can share the resource and have fun. I think that far outweighs any negative consequences of a few poachers or whatnot looking for fish too. I can understand the "sensitive" fisheries being kept nameless though. Just my 2 cents.

very very good shots thanks for sharing! many recognized and all enjoyed!!

lol. that's classic

LOL you guys have me laughing so hard I can hardly breathe.

hmmm. great report. but shame shame shame for mentioning what flies you used. Now everyone will be catching fish, and the fly shops will be cleaned right out. all becuase you put a report on FFC. (If you aren't getting my sarcasm .... you need a cup of coffee... and thanks for the report)

Your report of this sighting is now under investigation.

Wouldn't suprise me, with the attitude so many people have nowadays out there. Fishing used to be about getting rid of stress, now we come to a forum where people bitch and fight about sh*t all the time.

awesome! I saw this once on the crow myself... I can't remember if I still have the pics or not. Neat stuff!!!! That snake won't need to eat for a week!

Another good reminder of the reasons we fish. Moments like this.

Jayson, you seem to have a bone of contention with me. I still never gave away the spot... up from sunnyview covers quite a bit of river my friend. No one that posted gave away the spot. EDIT: Had some info that no longer is relevant.

Oh no! Now the entire city of Calgary knows where to go for dead burbot!!
