On a sidenote about the crow. In the uppermost section before the lake (crowsnest lake) you can encounter the odd lake trout as well. Sometimes they get into the river out of the lake. I've not been actually able to catch a laker in the crow itself, but I have watched what I know was a lake trout without a doubt on a few occasions (watched them ignore everything in my frigin fly box too, gaaaaahhhh...)

Can we take pictures of them laying on the rocks / grass / ice??

Naw to find Max just look for his tonsils. You can usually see them first, THEN his face lol

You just gave me an awesome idea. I am reconfiguring my office from furniture type bookshelves and desks, to a built in all around the walls type scenario this year, and I will HAVE to add something like this!! Looks great, nice work! Care to post your sources for the plans? Or e-mail me the plans / materials list? Thanks man!

Not to hijack this thread another way but it may have been my friend brent that you heard about on the crow... he got a 27 or 28 inch laker below the falls once. If he's a lurker here maybe he'll post that pic up!

Most if not all the good fly shops in town will have a little map of all the accesses for a few bucks. That'd be the best place to get yourself started. Or head south on deerfoot, then take bow bottom trail south, and stay on bow bottom trail south till it enters fish creek park and gets really, really small ... and keep going till you get to the boat launch and go up or down from there. good fishing, and you'll probably run into some people from this message board who you can ask some questions of and get some good solid info... if you have trouble catching fish on the bow take the time to sit and watch what those who are catching fish, are doing. Try and follow maxwell around and hide in the bushes behind him and study :)

Financial limitations this year will probably restrict me in offering items for bids, but I will definately put up a one day crowsnest river walk + wade

Pheonix always seems to get so many lucky boiunces against us. I also agree, Kipper should have had the night off... give the dam backup some time... what if we need him in the playoffs if (god forbid) kipper sucks or gets hurt.

Impressive effort by the boys.... GREAT effort by the goal posts to keep goals out (on both sides) LOL....

Holy crap! Resurrected from the depths - it's Ladystrange! How the hell ya been? And yeah.... no one's gonna want to ride in the plane with ya, cuase you'll still be bitchy and crabby till your fishing

That one about the tools is so bang on man... LOLOL I'm gonna save that.

whadya call a guy with no arms and no legs at your front door? Matt... whadya call a guy with no arms and no legs in your mailbox? Bill... whadya call a guy with no arms and no legs on your wall? Art.....

That particular fish though - is a FOOTBALL salmon... damn every time I look at that pic my jaw drops

That's what BC calls a chinook salmon (what alaska calls a King salmon)

Maybe... but I think Kipper's been great when he HAS to be great... which wasn't happening early in the year...

ROFL - GIT-R-DONE!

Yeah and on the road where they got punked 6-1 earlier. Will be intersting to see just how good this team really is... I think that game's the "litmus test".

Every shot I see of people fighting fish out there is epic. One of the prettiest places to fish in any season... for sure. how's the roads up there, snow pack n ice or do they sand 'em??

frikkin HAWG man!

How about that effort against SJ?? they looked damn good. I see a team that's really starting to come together. And Kipper is coming back around too. all is well in flames camp

I probably hit that dog with the truck. At least they made something out of him

Ok I posted this one elsewhere but no one read it. A man comes home to his wife after shooting a deer in the woods. They decide to cook some of the meat for dinner. They know their kids are very picky eaters, so they decide NOT to tell the kids what it actually is... but to let them guess. The kids guess a bit.... and finally give up and ask for a clue. Dad says... "well, it's something your mom calls me sometimes" The kid spits out the bite he was taking and yells to the others "DONT EAT IT - IT's ***hole!!"

*another steelhead trip this fall... this time with high quality vid, camera's, and freinds for two weeks (it's gonna kick azz max ... fo sho!) *a few more days on palmer ranch this year. *buy a pontoon for Policeman's and REALLY learn that lake so that I can enjoy it (and outfish y'all) on it for years to come

The best presentation for the "ball of yarn" fly... is to get down deep so it's right on the ocean floor, and make it look like it's rolling

muuussstttt gooo fish... now...... fish.... good... ..........yeah...............soon.... Good on you for getting out I wish I could.
