  1. I use a 9 foot 5 weight for most of my fishing, from bass lakes to small trout streams, but when it comes to worm and bobber rigs it's too weak and makes the Bow experience not very enjoyable. I think I'll have to pick up a 6 or 7 weight if I fish the Bow as much as I want to this winter.

  2. Good 'ol Scorecoff can't even hit an empty net. Good thing he's only getting paid 5 mil :wacko:

     

    Actually that was a really solid effort last night until the late meltdown. Cogliano was flying (MacT needs to keep him and Cole together), Gagner looks like he's getting back on track, Roli was solid until his tantrum, Nilsson was good, Reddox was awesome in his 2nd career game. Gilbert and Visnovsky looked a lot steadier. I liked how they kept their play up in the 3rd, the Oil usually sit back on a lead. Frustrating loss but if they keep that effort up they'll be fine.

  3. Yeah Gagner looks like he has no confidence left. It was probably too much as an 18 year old to hear all the time about how he's going to be a big star and lead the Oil to glory...way too much pressure.

     

    3 Oilers made the NHL's plays of the week, including 2 Hemsky goals (again :bow: ) and MacIntyre's owning of Letang was the #1 hit of the week: http://oilers.nhl.tv/team/console.jsp?catid=4&id=25221

     

     

  4. I just found this today, after hearing about a pack of wild dogs roaming Griffith Woods

    Pretty intense! I walk through that park all the time and fished there when it was open. I'll be sticking to the main trails for a while.

    I came across a mutilated whitetail by the river 2 weeks ago and I wonder if that was the work of this pack. Most likely coyotes but you never know.

  5. So again the question has to be asked, if the perpetrator was your 15 year old meth addicted daughter cranked all up and fighting with the cops would you want her to take a shot by a taser in order to be subdued, perhaps risking death?

     

    Keep in mind that drug and alcohol addiction is considered a disease by todays definition, so essentially what would be happening is the cops would be tasering a person who requires medical help.

     

    I mean come on, we even provide the dope and injection sites in this country so how can we condone the use on one hand and shoot with the other?

     

    (I still say plug em with a .38 right through the eyes but that's just me....)

     

    What kind of cop can't handle a 15 year old girl? :D

    Give 'em more time in the weight room and tazers won't be necessary - just give people resisting arrest a good ol crack in the jaw to drop them.

  6. I've never seen a spot that takes 'countless days' to find talked about on the forums, but maybe I missed it, can you share an example?

    Also how does 'putting in their time' make an angler more qualified to fish a certain hole?

    I really hate to see people post spots, which are then swarmed by those that haven't put in thier time
  7. An unbiased, honest comment from an oilers fan? I was beginning to think the oils next mascot was an ostrich. You're clearly slipping snakeman...come to the dark side.

     

    Ha, I remember during the flames cup run I made a post on FFA about how I like the way the flames play and want to cheer for both Alberta's teams...I was immediately shot down with replies about how stupid that would be, how I'm a bandwagon jumper, etc. So that idea died quick but I think Hawgstoppah is pulling it off.

    As much as I despise Bertuzzi as a person he is really fun to watch, he makes some crazy passes and that one goal he scored on Deslauriers was sick.

  8. No? He's having a heck of a lot better season that Erik Cole so far.

     

    Well too bad Kevin Lowe doesn't own a crystal ball :P

    Cole has been a beast since being played in his natural position. He fits the Oilers style better than Bertuzzi.

    Bert's been great for the flames though, if he stays healthy for most of the season and keeps up this pace he'll get 30+ for sure. I hope that doesn't happen though
