  1. ACN uses Telus' services for most of their products and Telus uses Bell's services for satellite. Why are you looking into satellite service if you live in Calgary?
  2. as a guy that fishes the NW this is an awesome change, I get to drift much earlier
  3. People use what they use to fish and target the fish that give them enjoyment. I have specific Sages that I only use for streamer fishing although they are only 3 or 4 wts, a small piece of t-12 (like 12") and you have a very effective sink tip, or just fish a longer leader. You will have to use some common sense as a 3wt isn't throwing a 10" double bunny for bulls, but a size 2 muddler or bugger... no problem. The only limit is your own perceived limitations.
  4. If you want a 3 don't buy a 5, regardless of it being made from glass, grass or graphite. Personally I have a TXL in the 2710. I have never had any issues with back bone and I have landed some serious hogs on it.... 28"-30" bulls. throwing streamers and punching thru wind is a little more difficult because the line doesn't carry much weight.
  5. I'm a fan of Daiichi 2460 in #2
  6. don't worry guys you won't often see me and my jet on "your" waters.... I like trophies
  7. it seems like I need my bearings done every 6 months..... check em
  8. no, I'm not from edmonton and I'll never fish that pot hole of trash fish you call beaver
  9. well Don, that seems to be a loaded question, the trolling speed would totally depend on what i'm fishing. For example if I was fishing for larger rainbows chasing salmon fry, I want to run around 5 knots. But if I'm fishing waters like Stauffer, I think the best bet would be to back troll down stream, that way you can hit all the holding water. That said, I think trolling is for those who can't cast.
  10. man this video really get me going. I hope to have a 9-12' aluminium jet by this time next year..... with 200 HP. I think one of these would easily get up Stauffer.
  11. I never said the watermaster wasn't stable or tough, and the Bow isn't really a river that stresses a watercraft.... WaterMasters handle like a brick, and they are too expensive for what you get.
  12. If you are going to buy a watermaster save your cash, head to Canadian tire buy a Fishhunter for $89 and a piece of plywood for $25...... its about the same quality and easy of use just $1000 less. Watermasters were awesome years ago when there were no other option, no they are outdated. The Scadden boats are way easier to row, drift and pack.
  13. muha has it, palmer schlappin. I will use two or three feathers if I want more "body" and sometimes I will palmer it backwards as I feel the fibres don't fold over as easily in water
  14. George, the faster you run the jet the smoother the ride CGYGUY, I have seen srd multiple times on the bow. They are typically in a green canoe, with rods and in shirt or coat covering their uniforms. The major problem with srd visibility is that there is so few of them in the province. There have been times when I have called and an officer calls back to tell me he is the closest to Calgary and just leaving Sundre. That said, I did get a call this week letting me know that I should be expecting a cheque soon from my last call in.
  15. you can save a ton of effort by hiring a guide and paying attention to what he/she teaches throughout the day
  16. Size of the water..... dude you asked for input and now you are arguing your points you asked on, just fish your switch if that's what you want.
  17. I think switches are to big to be swinging around on the small waters I chase bullies on. There are some waters that would suffice, ie; oldman. But just imagine trudging to the next hole sporting a 11 footer. My bully specific rods are shorter than the typical rods I use just because of the small waters.
  18. I have been in this exact situation, I ask to take pictures of them and their fish, I wish them a good day and high tail it to cell service, call them in and then go back to the location and watch the hilarity ensue. Wait 3 weeks and cash your cheque
  19. I carry a third oar on everything but the bow, I have a 3-piece Carlisle. It fits neatly in my rowers bench..... but most the time I just toss it in the side well.
  20. Josh has nothing to do with the Humble videos
  21. yes, because they have no rights to OUR water
  22. I like boobies
  23. So, them bushes can be dangerous
