monger

I wasn't in the basement....but still really enjoyed the show. Thanks Don. My son and I were watching Mule deer with another predator

Yes BA we were chasing birds yesterday. Good thing he can fish because his gun shoots blanks

No I just like to look at pictures of giant fish...one day.... My buddy replaced your old brownie with the switch rod

My fishing mentor sent me a pic the other day...

I met a guy who specifically targeted them (couldn't be bothered with trout). Full or sink tip line with small white streamers in slow, deeper holes. A few of our crew have got them on San Juans

Thanks Frank. I can see why one wouldn't want to come home...great expectations every morning

Great shots. Can I have the elk's address?

Dude, Sometimes the moneychangers need their tables flipped to get the message across. This "correction" was too strong...but something needed to be straightened out.

Seems like Mr Ego the bully got a bit of a western education...a little too much of an education mind you. Interesting to see how his manners are next time.

Buddy sent photo from the far east. Mouse for lunch for this Brookie

Water flow: Bow->Macgregor->Travers->Little Bow->Badger

Cool bonus fish!

Pkk...I have a co-worker who says something similar about Chinook and Coho...they are all made into dog food at their house. I guess everyone's tastes are different.

First time to the beach on the east side of the Island. The streams are very low and warm this year and the salmon were not showing themselves. Finally a few fish showed up cruising off the beach and I was able to get a fly in front of one. Very respectable fight for a fish of around 4lb and I got to see quite a bit of backing. I could see beach fishing getting pretty addictive. Hopefully nothing has happened to the fish and they continue to show up in the days ahead. Not a bad meal on the BBQ either

Perch like scuds and boatmen as well

Wow, that's fancy. I just clip my hemostats to my fly and let 'er sink. You hi-tec guys have all the advantages

We keep losing bank and big trees with these floods. The river is getting wider and shallower

Kind of like a gravel parking lot. Tons of rocks and trees up on the pasture on the south side of the river as well

Stuff in the tanks was not very explosive (not jet fuel)...actually really hard to ignite even with a torch. Still is great news that none of it ended up in the water The gravel under the base of the pillar washed away causing it to shift....could not have been seen by anyone. Hadn't happen for 100 years. I really doubt anyone could have safely checked the base underwater considering the current speed and visibility. Good ending to a crappy situation. Pretty sure that bridge will not be replaced.

Can a person get to this campground or is Hwy 66 closed?

I think the houses below Cranston may actually be OK. It was hard to see going across the extender bridge, but I think they made it through. The pasture south of the bridge on the east side of the river is now a moving lake however

Defienbaker will get a fresh stocking from the Bow

Northbound Crowchild over the Bow is closed, had to re-route to 14St bridge. The river is an awesome, boiling mess. Never been nervous on a bridge before. Hopefully the engineers did their homework right:)

Just ignore my response. Bad advice I guess that is not a good description, and not correct form. Rod tip not following a perfectly straight line only on back cast. I tend to use this cast when using a floating line (not a sink tip) and a long leader. Very effective for me when using a 9-10ft leader and a big, heavy fly.
