SQUATCHER

best buy. olympus has a new cam out. 400 bukks though. not sure if youll find anything much cheaper. but thats what i use and its GRRREAT!

sweet, another poll!! CASTLE, FERNIE or THE SHINE. ski castle in the morn, fish crows nest in the aft....pura vida!!

okay...well may is not early for bwos. so your right, you shouldnt write a book on the subject. and yes, i and many others have caught fish at that time of year with bwos. stop reading the posts so literally? the book was a metaphor, i was trying to tell you just because you never caught anything, doesnt mean half a click away i wasnt having an awesome bwo day!!!

tested for a fishing license....but anyone can have kids, almost anyone can drive. the world is truely a @#$%ed up place.

that happened right there, in that spot, at that time. one should never write a fishing book based on one experience. the best thing about this sport is that 100' feet away, the fishing could be completly different. an answer to your question is YES, dries are fished year round. of course winter/spring dries are better fished when rising trout are present. i always carry a griffiths gnat in winter, but only use it when a persistant trout is spotted. unlike summer/fall, when you can rig a dry no matter where or when yer fishin.

do they teach bear fighting techniques? if not itll be the same ol sermon. stop, drop, and roll...no wait...thats fires. 12 gauge defender, loaded with slugs n shot!

yeah man, when i tie spideys, theyre always foam and rarely look like actual spiders. more of an "everything terrestrial."

MIKE...? mike...? wheres mikey?i wanna know his take!

i just started too man. guess what....you tube has free lessons. no lie, check it out. i learned chords, tuning and mary had a little lamb in my first 10 mins!! nah....seriously try that before you fork over yer money.

is that a Hyde boat?

yeah, fishin gear is gettin alittle retarted. 300 bucks for a pastel colored bag my mom would wear? im tellin ya, keep checkin crown surplus. they got a bag for every piece of equipment out there. also check out army n navy, they always have new *hit commin in!

nice flies man! do they float?

you missed my point. what if nobody is monitoring yer channel? batts get wet? you drop it? its electronic...and comes with a warrenty against factory defects. hmmm? wish i had left a note on my windshield. but you do what you want. the skiiers did! and guess what...yer right, thats exactly what you write. leave the date too, so the FWO knows how long you been missing. windy out today? try an elastic. my point is this...dont rely on one piece of equipment to save yer life. if it works...awesome, great investment. but what if the bear eats that? seriously. then what? you gotta follow it around, waiting for it to take a dump. when all you had to do was leave a note.

check out crown surplus.

zap a gap is great for double bunnies. but take pride in your flies man! keep searchin for what you like. however, i once used tree sap while camping. always check yer portabox.

if what this guy says is true, ill buy one tomorrow.

herd man, its herd.

thanks man, thats exactly what i wanted to hear!

sounds like an expensive gimmick. a note left on your windshield could still be yer best bet.

NEXT!

can i have your phone number?

CHICKS IN WADERS TURN ME ON!!

i agree. go get a stick, tie on some mono, and go fish! thanks for the info headscan. do you live here? whippin out old posts so fast....weird.

this tragedy is a wake up call to all those who venture out into the mountains. for me, it was a sad day to hear somebody passed away while in this situation. this happens all too often. unprepared, unskilled or unable to adapt to a situation we figured would never happen to us. most have lost theyre basic survival skills only to have them replaced with city skills. my heart goes out to the family involved. the least we can do is better prepare ourselves for the impossible. to all those who fish alone, high in the rockies, it would be VERY easy to break an ankle or leg. are you prepared to spend a night or more up there?

since the day smackin yer kids got frowned upon, kids have become increasingly stoopid and un respectful. its only goin to get worse. i still fear my father!
