Wow totally awesome pictures Roach. That fish looks like it has whirling disease, freaky foresure.

Had a great day on the Red Deer yesterday, despite getting poured on from 8 p.m. untill 1 in the morning. Water clarity was excellent. Had lots of hookups with Walleye, Goldeye and even Whitefish. Wasn't enough hatching to get the browns looking up, so I ended up fishing a black leech with pretty good results. Hooked into this nice brown in about a foot of water. Nice length but kinda lean. About an hour later, had a solid hook up with the biggest brown I have tangled with yet. Unfortunately the hook popped out of his mouth when he gave us a good thrashing on the surface. Unbelievable 30" for sure but who knows. Anyways I know where he lives now... Thought I would introduce my friend to fishing and he is hooked now.

Awesome shots Max. Love the frankenstein rainbow, looks like someone drove a old screw right in its gill plate.

Classic example of how bad parenting skills can screw your kids up for the rest of thier lives. As far as child molestation goes , well thats between him and god now isnt it.

Holy smokes guys nice fish. Those bows are awesome jeff ,great photos

Excellent flies guys, great timing too, I am headed to Muir lake tomorrow. Going to try tying a few like Doc's should work great.

Nice fly , will tie some up and give them a try. Was wondering if anyone has tryed a solid white stonefly nymph. If so any success?

Stocked or not thats one awesome looking rainbow

Some nice fish there forsure.

Floated the Bow on Wednesday with Mike aka (Tungsten) and had an awesome day! Wanted to thank Mike again for joining us, it was a great day of fishing! Nymphing was the ticket for us. Mike was nice enough to let me try out his sage, and wouldn't you know it I hooked into a decent sized Rainbow that took me almost into his backing before it broke off. Man what a power house. Anybody know a way to convince your wife that we absolutely need 2 new Sage fly rods? Here's a few pics. Pretty nice Brown for the wife's second fish to hand and a few more to follow. Nicest of the day! One of the many fish landed by Mike throughout the day.

Incredible photos, thanks for sharing.

You kids get along now you hear. I think whats important here is Jay learned from his experience. All put money on it that as soon as he picked that net up the first thought that went through his head was,"Dam wish i had a cradle." He took the steps to make a cradle and kudo's to him for it. Personally am a C&R fisherman and all start criticizing others as soon as i make it through a season without mishandling a few myself. If i want to get shocked by poor fish handling alls I have to do is watch a few of the pro fisherman on tv shows. Another great video Jay , grats on the huge gator.

Beauty of a brown , Grats Bryce very nice.

Awesome shots Ayr

Alot of that footage is from the Red Deer River.

I usually build up the tread at the head enough to cover that small gap in the eye. Not so bad on small hooks but i know ive lost a few fish from my leader cutting on that little gap when using larger patterns.

Pretty much sums it up forsure FNG. I can only do what any true Canadian would do now cheer for Vancouver Thanks for posting that was a good read

Do you really think my life revolves around whether the flames win or lose? You know I joined this site because I bought a drift boat and was looking for someone around Red Deer that wanted to float the bow and red deer river with me. I grew up in Innisfail Guess all keep looking lol

Losers is a little harsh I think. Pretty tough for Canadian teams to compete against the amount of money most US teams have to throw around. Remember when Alberta was known as death valley , man those where the days. Anyways love the flames all always be a fan win or lose.

When was the last time the oilers made the playoffs i forget ROFL

Ya i guess they forgot there was 4 other hawks on the ice lol

So true how a team plays that good through the whole playoffs comes out that flat in the 7th game of the final series is a bit baffling.

Ya calgary came out flat and played absolutly terrible all game , but after that first penalty it was pretty obvious that the refs where going to do whatever it took to get the hawks in the lead. How do you call a holding penalty against Calgary when it was clearly the hawk player that was doing the holding unless you have an agenda. But ya i definitly agree Calgary made the refs agenda pretty easy last night Lets face it if your playing a team that gets to start every game with 9 players on the ice in a best of seven your going to come out flat towards the end of the series if it even goes that long.

Wow pretty bad game for Calgary. But it was pretty clear at 61 seconds in that Chicago started the game with 9 red jerseys on the ice.

Dosent look like the North Saskatchewan to me. Gary never did say where it is, just around Edmonton. Definitly not the N.S
