How To Teach Women To Fly Fish
Hawgstoppah replied to ladystrange's topic in General Chat - Fly Fishing Related
Step 18: Tell her she made you go shopping all those times, it's only fair if we go do something I like to do a few times Step 19: If all else fails, tell her your mother is coming into town on the day you want to go fishing with her... she'll come... trust me. -
sadly, your probably right. Our idiotic gov't would probably find a way to let a crowd of morons quad it to death, ruin the entire area, camp for months on end and poach fish, and basically ruin everything we hold dear. kinda like the entire oldman / castle drainages which are a skeleton of their former granduer.

aahhh crap I cant afford a BC license this yr. Wasn't it years ago that you could fish it with either a BC or Alberta license? I remember seeing that in Barry Mitchell's Alberta Fishing Guide or something.

We Need Ffc Member Opinions
Hawgstoppah replied to chrisbird's topic in General Chat - Fly Fishing Related
cant seem to figure out how to comment or vote on facebook, so I'll vote here. the one on the left for sure. I want to CATCH the ultimate trout, and hold it and witness it's beauty for that fleeting moment before it's release back home with a "thank you". The one on the left certainly conveys that feeling, whereas the one on the right looks like something you'd see in an aqaurium fish add. Just my 2 cents -
Don't Fish Birchy's Run Or Else!!!
Hawgstoppah replied to bigbowtrout's topic in General Chat - Fly Fishing Related
Exactly. He is only fired upon (and then only with the taser) when he reaches for something. Up till that point he had not displayed aggression. As soon as the crook escalates this into a potentially dangerous situation by quickly reaching for a weapon (or even if there was NOT a weapon there) gives the officer reasonable grounds to suspect that his or someone else's life may be in danger and is (at that point) authorized to use DEADLY force. The fact that the taser was used and not the gun (which he had drawn in his other hand) saved this crooks life. The crook should be thanking this officer for using the taser... -

To give away to a good home: The Vancouver Canucks no longer want this puck. They are hoping to give it away to a good home. Call the Vancouver hockey team if you can take care of the puck. I guess Chicago can... -
Don't Fish Birchy's Run Or Else!!!

That was me after I got the only dry fly fish a few weekends ago... birchy was something irate... sending the dogs after me even -
awesome fish... I think I know the place you speak of and I did get the chance to fish it twice a few years ago... you NEED a boat there.!!! Shorelines are so soggy you sink right in... cannot wade the place... I still did OK with a few biguuns to hand but would have been so awesome from a tube. Great fish

Most of the best fishing I have EVER had has been while others have said "don't waste your time" and while fly shops are cancelling their trips. Fish slack water near the banks. You may have to work hard and do some walking to find SLACK water... but you can find it... it's there. and when you do find it fish a big black stone / black leech in it... you'll be suprised what goes on

Jobs In Calgary?
Hawgstoppah replied to Hawgstoppah's topic in General Chat - Not Fishing Related (NFR)
I had a rather good looking girl who was a client of mine that did that for 3 years and BOUGHT A HOUSE... cash. yes. cash. I guess loonies add up. Hell if I was good looking and female I'd consider it... LOL... unfortunately I fit neither of those categories -

The Canucks absolutely dismantled Chicago last night. Will be a short series if Chicago doesn't show up a bit more than that... Chicago really does need a better goaltender... Habs vs Pit... yikes. If they find a way to do it ... Halak will have to be god again. -

Hawgstoppah replied to Golfman09's topic in General Chat - Not Fishing Related (NFR)
ahhh even in this thread people are starting to wake up and see the officiating against canadian teams is a joke. It's pretty obvious. At least you guys won your series.... but don't worry when you play Chicago (a team the NHL and Mr Bettman DEARLY wants to see succeed) you will be royally screwed. I bet Ottawa fans feel like they just got bent over though... and they did... -
