OH ya with videos like that the empire has a few more good generations left in it

I tend to get myself in my left hand every 2 weeks. this week I caught a Jeremy, right in the backpack luckily for him it was a back pack and not his back.

While it is certainly hard to not look at this through a fisherman's eyes, reality is there has to be a viable alternative before this practice is stopped. I'm certainly not smart enough to suggest one.
There has been a lot of r&d into "bubble screens" as of late. I think this is a viable option to having farmed fish in open oceans.

Jayhad. If you wanna catch whites use san juan worms in a size 6 or 8. They'll hit them quite a bit. Use an indicator or not. Its personal preference.
I caught a massive white on a #6 golden stone one day and almost the whole fly was in his mouth.
Thanks for the tips I will try to convince 420 to go out to "the" spot this week. I have 80 or so sanjuans left from my tying frenzy last winter.
I have no problem fishing for these guys, hell I am headed to the Harrison in mid october to fish Chum, Brown, rainbow, brook or white they are all fish.

So to nymph for the whites, do I set up with an indicator, like normal. I would assume I must use small flies for their litle bitty mouths

420 Flyfishin and I saw a bundle again today rise to god knows what, there was nothing hatching where we were....
On friday we fished elk hair caddis' and hooked them up but no go today.
Neither of us are very good nymphers but perhaps it is time to learn...... drys are so fun though.
We didn't see anyone today after walking 10k of water, which is always a huge bonus. But way back in the middle of no where we found hooks with worms on them around on the shore..... I have no problem with bait but I do hate poachers

those brookies are awesome I have been lucky to catch dome brookies this year but none that size.... just awesome

monger were you guys using fly rods?
If not get a 8wt or higher and line the complete reel with mono, attach to down rigger ball like normal and when a fish takes, clear your calender as you will be in for a monster fight. It's great fun with most of the salmon species, but can get old fast if you are tying into big springs as your arms will not feel the same.

I am currently looking at buying a Mitsu Delica... you may have seen them around they are a goofy right hand drive 4wd van from asia... they also get 36mpg. Now they aren't very fast but I won't be putting $150 a tank into my f150 any more

So a buddy and I are looking at this http://www.outcastboats.com/outcastboats/b...e.cfm?boatid=26
are we going just screwing around and should we look at a drift boat?
WE like the pontoon idea as we don't both need trailers, the cost is considearbly less then a drfit boat, and easy of storage are all high points.
I have never seen one on the Bow, but that doesn't mean people don't use them.
Your thoughts?

I've done this many times on the bc coastal rivers.... I like to call it moon walking. There are times that you get stuck out there long enough for the panic to subside and to me I feel giddy like a young child, bouncing along the river, then water over the top of the wader ussually snaps me back to reality.
Play safe out there

I saw 3 big bulls in a hole yesterday but like a noob I was only set up for cutties on the dry. I am going back this evening for battle.
-
truly I am not going to give up it is just very discouraging as I have over 100 hours on the bow already this year and have landed one sub 12" rainbow and hooked another. I figure it will turn around for me once we see lower and warmer water.

I was one of the campers up there on this party of 5. We ate really well but fished horribly. I am getting to the point of moving back to BC... I have lived in Calgary for 10 years now, I used to fish A LOT in the lower fraser valley of BC and i caught an awful amount of fish. I just started to fly fish agian this year and I have not found an adequate let alone easy fishery. I guess Winston and I will continue pounding the waters and soon maybe soon I can be graced with 1 just 1 fish over 12."
I'll be back out this week end again hoping to find the elusive alberta trout..... marking off the days on my calender until I head back to BC for a solid fishing weekend on the upper chehalius (sp?) or chilliwack.... october you can't come soon enough

My home phone rings so much in the evening that my wife and I haven't used it years
