Cheers Bowlurker...always looking for the pretty ones. Tiny Gems:

I had my shins shortened just so it was easier to get into my old round tube

We don't need any new mines on our eastern slopes

Way to easy Kyle. Pretty fancy tools

A good 9ft 6wt should be fine, maybe a 7wt if you are going to throw some heavier streamers. Sounds like a fun spot

How big are the fish in pounds?

Good shots Gary

Another guy on the Ancient Geezer Fishing Team. You old guys go get 'em

Heard of another fellow getting his converter stolen just south of Calgary along the river valley while he was fishing

Hope the message gets received by the right audience. I also hope the "birds" stop moving fish around their province with their buckets and cars

You are right intobacking....my bad

But Toolman, all the trout below Carsland have never counted. They were called "steers" by the Bios ....just excess production and not worth worrying about. That way you don't have to fix the screen, and subsequent loss of trout down the irrigation ditch to McGregor. Anyone taking temperatures in the Fish Creek area?

Bad info. My apologies

Great link, thanks Brian

I have heard the government may be putting a high temp closure on all streams in Southern Alberta from 2pm to Midnight. Perhaps they will start on Thursday Aug 18. Check here for updates: https://mywildalberta.ca/fishing/advisories-corrections-closures/default.aspx

great news

Cut off the feet of your old worn out waders....then you can use them in your boots for summer

Yes, the amount of water removed at the WID weir near the zoo is probably the biggest threat to the river when discussing flows, temperature and dilution of contaminants as summer arrives However, this reduction/loss of water from the river is not even up for discussion from the government in power. Rather than discuss the gaping wound pumping fluid out, those in power want to bandage some scratches somewhere else
