put the blunt down jus for a second -
My stomach still hurts from laughing at that video, especially the anthem singer. Too funny. I hope you mend real soon Rick.

I have heard that 6 weeks of -15 weather should kill most of these guys off. If thats the case, its the only positive thing that can come from this cold snap. Can anyone on here confirm or deny this?

That was one of the best world juniors games that i have watched in a long time. Previous to that was the big brawl that theo started against the russians. I can't wait for the rematch. I personally felt the canadian player deserved the shot in the face for show boating right in front of the bench.

Fish And Wildlife

Looks like I might be getting checked a little more often than I first thought. Good to know that they are watching. -
Looks like I'm going to go 3 years in a row without getting my license checked in Alberta. I think its a shame considering we have world class fishing here at our doorstep. I see empty worm and minnow containers just about every time I'm on the bow. And dealing with RAP can be a pain in the ass at times. Tough to catch these guys if no ones really enforcing the regs. What do you guys think?

The last couple of trips on the river, my feet were so cold that i almost fell in a couple of times. I picked up a pair of battery heated socks and the feet were good to go all day. The only thing i didn't really like is the battery holder at the top of the sock. I think i will snip the wires and extend it up to the top of my pants.

Keep Lynn In Your Thoughts

Here's a few others that share your pain Lynn. I hope you heal up soon. -
I think i have my gear addictions under control. The only time i get new gear now is when I'm alone or with my friends.

The rod is is the 12 ft 7120 with the multi 6/9 reel, Skagit line and loop running line. I just had it in the backyard swinging it around, and it feels amazing. Feels a little strange to have 3 ft of extra rod but i am sure i will get used to it. I've been watching a few vids to try and pick up some tips on how to cast and it seems that a majority of them are using a down stream presentation, is that the norm with the spey rod? I also picked some 3 and 6 sink tip line. I've never used sink tip before and i was just wondering if you use a tapered leader when nymphing or would you use straight tippet? I know these seem like newbie questions but if you don't know how else are you gonna learn. I think i feel the flu coming on cough cough. Might have to call in sick tomorrow. cheers

Well I've been lurking around the lounge for quite a while now and i finally decided to take the plunge. With christmas just around the corner, i think santa wanted to beat the crowds so he decided to drop off my gift a little early. Funny thing is i never knew santa lived in Whistler. Just wanted to say a special thanks to Brian for all his help in purchasing the rod. I'm totally pumped, i can't wait to give it try. Now all i have to do is figure out how to use it.

Awsome footage as usual. Sorry to hear about your dog. My fishing buddy is on his last legs as well. I hope he can make it another season or two. Have you ever thought about a karelian bear dog. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/karelianbeardog.htm -
I had no idea jack tripper fly fished!
-
Unreal shots bro. Mind blowing as usual.

How would this be any different than steelhead or salmon fishing on the coast. Or for that matter, fishing on the bow while the browns are spawning. Hard to say for sure that no one on this board has caught brown on or near there spawning grounds in the last couple of weeks. Does that make us all guilty of ripping fish off there spawning beds?
-
Knottygirl, I think your catch rates would greatly increase with outfits like that.
-
I see nothing in this video that indicates that these fish were caught on there spawning beds or the use of barbed of hooks, maybe i am missing something here.
