  1. Need more quad guards for the Castle Park I guess. The number of officers in the province is a joke
  2. I have never fished Upper K. Is that a good spot?

    Waders

    I've been using the Orvis SS guide model. The first pair didn't have the crotch seam sealed in the center and split...they were replaced. Second set has been very good with no issues. Approaching the end of second year. I sometimes get out and fish
  4. This was discussed earlier (eagleflyfisher)...especially for a Power Drifter. My buddy was having the same problem but has fixed it now. He installed a high quality Black Diamond rotor swivel (climbing gear at MEC $54) at the rope tie off point. Works great. Sorry for the crappy picture I was trying to fall in the water
  5. Congrats on a hole and one. That must be a great moment. I'm cool with some flak. Soon there will be some lake bugs on top of the water. I will try that next time
  6. But if it is a stillwater cutty the game is different. You guys are trying to hurt my feeling
  7. Mainstream will work...the fish won't even know. You can buy 2
  8. Elbow river is way up this morning. This must have opened the dam
  9. Cool pic. Maybe a 6wt with some backbone is in order for that game
  10. The fish in BH are more willing I hear, though many say it is tough fishing this year
  11. Not sure how many made it with the bodies around. Scared me after the long drive
  12. The Sinusoidal bye bye
  13. Lots of Prussian Carp in the Red Deer below the city Red Deer down Okotoks pond was rotenoned for goldfish I believe Lots of carp below Bassano in the Bow and irrigation system All started from a guy with a Talapia farm by Strathmore. He released carp into an irrigation ditch that eventually gets to the Red Deer river below Drumheller. Then it was up to the bucket brigade to start moving carp everywhere
  14. Some nice casting happening there. Great to watch some skill
  15. Buckingham trout by Todd Moen video on Youtube. Link doesn't want to show up here
  16. I even used 20lb braid for the nail knots behind the fly line loop. Then glued to smooth things out
  17. Not sure how things are going...but as far as "rope" goes....guys at Canyon rigging said there is now rope made with Dyneema (like braided fishing line) that is incredibly strong in a small diameter with a breaking strength of 50,000lb.
  18. Landowner is Albertina Farms. Houses are along Hwy 552 just north of Blizzard lake on the map. There is a road all the way down there coming from the south right to the Hell on Wheels filming site. I don't think "rope" will be strong enough. You may need cable or nylon webbing tow straps.....the guys at Canyon Rigging in Calgary can custom build whatever you might need and offer some professional expertise. A tractor on shore might be the best solution
  19. Not sure if supplies are needed for the rescue, but a company in SE Calgary probably has anything required....Canyon Rigging
  20. The rod likes the 600gr head. Now to just swing up some Chromers!
