It wasn't a pretty site at all. Next time i'll tarpon fish.

Belly is not cut thank you very much.

Nah just sore pride as we were puking so damn much. I never ever got sea sick until this trip. Was brutal. Just one look at my GF after we caught the second one and I made and exec. decision. We both caught the fish we came out for in the first 30 minutes. Hell she was on a fish within 5 minutes. No other boats caught fish either. Yet for some reason we got 2 right away. Its almost like i got Russ's luck for a few minutes.

It was seriously awesome.

Sorry I missed the blizzard guys. It was 30-32 all week and sunny. Got a sweet tan. Anyway here is my fish. My biggest to date.

I caught an 84 inch sailfish..........pics to come on sunday. It was sweet, me and my gf each caught one in half n hour. Then in 7 to 8 ft seas we got sicker than a dog so we cut the trip short. But all we wanted to do was see one. Saw dolphins too, rounding up a sardine ball. Oh and we let the fish go.

Welcome to gods country steve.

Birchy, Next vehicle get one of these. http://www.autonet.ca/donut/content/news/2...10/5248126.html I have one secretly stashed on my motorcycle. If the unthinkable happens i'll bring my axe and my ball bat to the location. Oh and anyone who doesnt have 4 wheel drive should just get outta the way.

Who is going to get all the rain this year? Probably Grande Prairie's turn for flooding.

Texans are lazy creatures too.

I think you should all invest in PHX.UN.

Fantastic point. If your fish keep hitting the worm, then theres no shame in fishing with 2 sjw's.

I have an XM module for the car if you wanna buy. Only used once. Then i bought a new chev truck.

I LOVE IT.

Here are some tips I learned about fishing the bow. Here are some tips for you self learners. 1. Get a 9ft 1X leader. Put a strike indicator on the top where your leader attaches to your fly line. Tie one one San Juan Worm on the end. To the shank of the hook tie on another nymph about 12 to 18 inches with 1X tippet. I usually start with an evil weevil or prince. 2. Cast upstream at a 45 degree angle and mend your line according to the current. (Key is to make it float along as if it were not attached to a line NO DRAG). Let it swing all the way down past you until it is straight beside you. Give it 2 strips of fly line about 3 inch grabs before lifting it for your next cast. (You'd be surprised how many strikes happen here, I miss plenty) 3. Make sure your bouncing along bottom (this is key). I like to add split shot (the ones that are not removable and small). Set your hook when you see suspicious activity on your strike indicator (EVERY TIME i'm terrible but getting better at this) 4.Make your own grid system for casting. Cast one spot 3 to 5 times. If nothing, cast a bit further until you are sure there are no fish here. If nothing, move downstream or upstream about 10 feet and try the same thing again. (I like to vary my depths as well by wading deeper and deeper each time). This should catch you at least 1 fish and help you on your way to nymphing the Bow River or any large river. I am certainly no expert but this is the way I learned how to catch fish on the bigger rivers. This is with a lot of help from the Boards. If you have the money hire a guide to help you out the information is priceless. I have 2 links to Bow River guides on the website http://www.flyfishcalgary.com

Im around moosejaw right now and theres lots out here too. I almost went 2 for 2 with a buck last nite. Maxwell was with me for round one.

I leave sunday.

Coles notes: Clean your gear you lazy bastard. The end.

See now this is a prime example of why this website was started. Yes a fishing spot but a well known one. People willing to help out complete strangers.

Damn brent types faster than me.

Fish creek park. Go down deerfoot til you see bow bottom trail. Follow it all the way to the end. Park and work the river up and down.

Cool. Nice fish boys.

Welcome to the site. I am a fellow fisherman from Manitoba now living out here.

You heard right.

Ear poison. I'd hit it.
