The trunk is pretty rough in many places. I haul my 40 foot toyhauler down through the gap and up to Liv many times during the summer and every goal is not to break something!!! There would be a lot of bounce with the rack but if you take your time on the rough patches you would be fine. A truck with the bike pad on tailgate would be ideal but the fat tires are heavy. I did this yesterday and best option was putting bike in box and then the front fork over the pad and tailgate.

Bought a fat tire ebike a few weeks ago but was in Mexico over break so only assembled and got out riding this past weekend. Put 50k on in SE Calgary all through fish creek park and up and down the paths on both sides of the Bow. Love the thing!!! I think it would work fine getting into certain areas for fishing etc. Great weather . Bought a smaller bike for the wife and a non fat tire version and hers was great as well. They were both great on the paths and off road dirt and gravel packed. Obviously the fat tire will excel here. Rode to work this morning and left the f350 home!!!! I use the assist and peddle about 50% as well depending on the terrain. Get the biggest motor and battery that you can. I have a 750 watt hub a 20 amp battery. Best of luck.

Shout out to Iron Bow and Gianni who took care of me! Smoker bandits on order!!! Come on BOW!!!!!

Hi all Inquiring about ordering some sawyer oars. I looked into a few options but wanted to ask here. I know our dollar is going to hurt me but was also wondering if ordering would take on additional fees or brokerage charges? Anyone have any advice or experience on this matter? Appreciated. I do have a local shop looking into it also for me. Thanks

Usually very good service from my experience. Galvan just sent me a handle kit. The islander was the drag issue and I think I had to pay 30 bucks. Way back, Ross took care of me. I have not had to send in my Hatch........ hope I did not jynk myself!!!!

For the price we pay for reels send that back to be serviced. Just had to do that with one of my Islanders. Not sure of your issue but have heard of that before. Best of luck.

Looking at buying some new oars. I have a 16 foot skiff hyde/premier and enjoy the boat and have had for 3 seasons. Floating the Bow tomorrow!!!! The oars are 9.5 feet, carbon fibre with the diamond shape paddle but really heavy!!!!! Probably going with some Sawyers and asking if anyone here uses the Smoker bandidts? like dislike? Am also looking at the square top style for counter balance . Probably going composite but really need something lighter than what I have. Any input appreciated. Tight lines!!!!

We need the rain or it will be a poor season for sure. Last weekend was fantastic on a float police to mac!

Thanks. Looking to get first float with drifter next weekend.

Is Mac Kinnons launch open?

Thanks for sharing this info here. It may help others.

Thanks for sharing. Hitting up the mountains for one last horrah this weekend. Expect the fishing to be slow but hope the crowds are low too.

You can not fix stupid!!! This crap is on the increase. Very frustrating ....... driving on deerfoot is worse!

Livingston between km 55-57 past 3 days. Temperature range was between 54 around 10 am to 60 by 1:30. Rain pounded and hail on tuesday night and water was 57 around 10 AM. Willing fish were released healthy and strong!

Headed to the mountain streams tomorrow for a few days and if I find my thermometer Greg I will report back. Thanks for doing this.

Watched it a month ago I think on youtube. It was enjoyable.

Much better than being at home or in a mall................ IMO...... or at work!!! My 18 year old and a few buds were out past few days as well and landed some nice bows.

Yeah this would be great to know. Thanks

agree on the macrum yarn michaels

Nice tie!!!! I am seeing BWO outside in backyard often the past few dazzzzzzzz. Will look for some snouts tomorrow on the river!!! A float day!

following this

Big black rubber legged stones. size 2-4 Awesome in june on the Crow in the riffles with the ole worm!!!! Sorry no pics.

I ordered 30 flies to throw out some support. You get what you pay for and ordered some that I don't tie often.

Can't leave Calgary until noon Wednesday and was curious if anyone knew how crowded the CG was with a long weekend ahead. You can't reserve, which is fine, but with two young boys fishing it is always an ideal spot. Any info appreciated. thanks

haha I agree
