I'm still fairly new to forum posting, so I'm not sure whether I can ask opinions about certain makes of equipment or manufacturers. If I can, I'm looking for opinions on Crystal River products, especially leaders. I can buy them cheaper than other leaders; but does cheaper sacrifice quality ( sometimes, but not always )? If not Crystal River, what is a good leader for Bow River fishing? Thanks

Hey robert That is so true. I think that I'm getting off the topic, but I bought a nuvi 1490 in December & have updated it twice since. It is a good thing that I know where I live, because Garmin certainly doesn't, & can't guide anyone to my address.

It can't be said any better than that!

I hope that I'm not out of line with this post, but if 'caddis1946' is a member, could you please pm me. Thanks

Does anyone have hooked up, or know how to hook up, a Wii console to receive Netflix streaming to a HDTV ( Panasonic Viera ) I have a Netflix account ( free trial ). I do not have a wireless router; it is a coaxial cable from Shaw. I do not have a laptop, it is a PC about 40 feet from the TV. I don't want to stream it to the computer, just the TV. I know what a LAN adapter is ( haven't bought one yet ). Does an Ethernet cable have to be run from my computer modem to the TV? ( not practical at all ) Can't find the proper info on google. I don't know if this enough info, but I can't think of anything else to add. Thanks in advance for any help.

We used to hunt extensively in the general area ( Racehorse, Dutch, Oldman ) many years ago & saw quite a few old decrepit shelters & small cabins. I doubt if they had anything to do with internment camps though, as I sure they were there long before WW2.

Thanks for the helpful information SilverDoctor.

Hi Silver Doctor Not particularly interested in rewards, but I would like to put a damper on these a-holes. Any info on how to report these people is appreciated. I know what the CO's say, but is that realistic? Do you confront these people & tell them what they are doing is illegal & record license numbers ( not sure how you do that ), take pictures or what? Any info is appreciated.

So far, the only benefit of getting old that I can see is I don't need a fishing license any more. The downside is I don't seem to remember where my rod ( fishing ) is & what it is for.

Great choice. You will be very pleased with them.

I want to take 2 or 3 trips down the Bow this year with a guide in a drift boat. Is it worth going before run-off, seeing as a lot of the bigger rainbows will have left the river to spawn, or better to wait? I would think that late summer to early fall would be a good time for one of the floats because of the hopper fishing. I can go anytime. What are the preferred floats as to where to go in & come out? Yes I know that there aren't that many options. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have taken courses from the McLennan's & they are great teachers & great people & I would recommend them highly. Check their website to see if the dates of any their schools will match up for you. If you can't get them, any of the good fly shops in Calgary should be able to accommodate you.

If it is Garmin, it is gold. The 60CSx ( great unit & easy to use ) & anything newer will probably do everything that you want it to. Let your maximum cost outlay be the deciding factor, but make it Garmin.
