Always WAY too many! Last lake I went to I had about 9 boxes of flies with me. I used 1 fly. But there are days when a guy needs to look in a number of different boxes to try and improve the odds.

Now they are Pine coulee Reservoir. Someone said they saw one caught in the Bow by Fish Creek Park. Bugs are going to be in trouble

I just use a floating, aqualux and type 6 or 7. You could have 2 floating lines, one for dry flies with 12ft leader, one for indicator fishing with 25ft leader.

These fish are also in the Bow River below the Bassano Dam. Here is some video from down by Hays

Water level has dropped at Weed lake. There are stranded, dead carp left on the grass. Some are around 3lb. Hope the gulls like them

They get to about 3lb. I'm sure once their population explodes in the Red Deer river the native fishes won't be to excited about them

Don't worry...chironomids usually only about 80% of the diet...nothing serious

Did you try some #16 chironomids?

Talked to a guy yesterday that said Weed lake just north of Langdon is teeming with Prussian carp. Sounds like they are all through the irrigation system downstream from Chestemere toward the Red Deer River. I imagine the herons like them Look just like this:

Sorry BA, I thought south of Calgary was vague enough. The Dr took a great picture

Congrats on a new species! Was the bonefish fight everything you were expecting?

I like the Redington reels I have: RS2,AS, AL,CD. New Rise II and Delta seem to get good reviews as well.

Excellent! Soon you'll be the net boy for all the young fellas

Great fish. Are they of the Palmer variety?

I've got a lot of use out of TFO's. Concerns: poor quality cork (sometimes brutal), and ferrules that don't stay together. They are satisfactory tools that have caught tons of fish, but there are nicer, overpriced ones around.

Hunting a tarpon over 60lb with a new rod could be a place to "invest" your money. There was a recent report of a bonefish trip in the international section that sounds like a lot of fun. Giant trevally on Christmas Island

There used to be a nice deep run below Stanley park that was home to some slough sharks

Do these mean bull trout ever leave the pool you catch them in? Backing on a cutty stream ....really?

Happy Birthday Sir! Now you can join the Ancient Geezer's Fishing Team with the old farts down by Lethbridge

Good show Steve. You must have the fish named by now. Don't scare my elk!

12-15lb leader that is 3-4ft long never seems to be a problem for me. Usually good to get the fly down near the bottom so use appropriate sink tip or weighted flies

We are so blessed to live close to such beauty. Thanks for sharing your adventures
