  1. Thanks for all the input to all. The float was nice. Liked the water between Jensens and Caresland best. Tons of dinks out and caught, found a few in the high teens with some taking hoppers explosively. The day was long with a few stops. Probably 13 hours. Water temp was 65 and pumped a couple of the larger fish. Seemed to be on to some type of scuds, super small anyway. Have fun on the float Jeremie.
  2. I have never drifted this section of the river and have a couple of questions for those that have. I was wonderng if this float can be done in one day, and if so how long it takes? Also, is there time to walk wade the shore in a day trip? Is it better to go from Janzens to Caresland for a day trip? Thanks in advance for your input.
  3. Just my experiences, not gospel by any strech.
  4. Another technique to consider for trout streaming, is to cast out 70-50 degrees ( this can vary depending on what cast you are using. eg. a double spey throws your line a little more up stream and a snap t a little more downstream ). When the line is at 45 degrees, begin stripping it in. I find this extra action on the flies works well on trout. Take some steps downstream and repeat. This works very well for me on the bow. Swinging fles is great for steel, not as productive for trout. Good luck, and welcome to the spey cult.
  5. I know where you can order the Patagonia Guidewater for 180. A smokin deal on a great jacket with a lifetime warranty. PM me if you want the details as to where you can find this deal.
  6. Nice, it's cool having a change up in the photo posts
  7. I use slickshooter as well. Seems not to be affected as bad with icing in the guides and shoots awesome, cheap as well. Something to think about anyway.
  8. Just wondering if anyone out there has seen or cast one of these rods? I am wondering whar they are like.
  9. I would say it would depend on where you intend to go with it. I like to fish the mountain lakes and may have to hike a ways, so I decided to get the Outcast Trinity. It packs into a small backpack with a small pump. Not as large as the others mentioned, but I have also used it on some bigger lakes and it is stable enough. Good luck with your decision.
  10. yup, when you feel that "thunk" on your reel when your running line is all out and your fly is a mile away is an indescribable feeling. Nice work.
  11. Its a good thing there is people like you who make a stand and watch out for their fellow humans. It helps make the world a better place. Have a speedy recovery.
  12. I use a skagit head and a type 3 or 6 sink tip. This seem to work well with the double streamer set up, the flies turn over really nice and there is very rarely a tangle up between the 2 flies.
  13. Nice work dude, looks like beaut of a trip
  14. Thats a football dude, nice fish
  15. nice work dude, beautiful places and pics
