"Kananaskis" eh?! I'm going there tomorrow and I'm bringing ALL my internet friends.

Die you SOB... DIE!!

Bump. Still haven't found anything.. getting pretty desperate. I really don't have any NEED to stay in the IT industry other than the pay. If I can find something else that pays the bills, i'm willing to do it. Please keep an eye open for me peeps!

Interesting - looks like I have some research to do. My mother-in-law has one of these and swears by it! I've done it quite a few times myself actually. I do notice one major difference though.. with hers, there is no wrist strap or any other device connected to you that would "complete the circuit". You just put your feet in the water and that's it. Other than that, it's the same as the ones in the videos. I've asked her a couple times if she's ever tried running it without anyones feet in the water to see what happens - that maybe the junk was coming out of the water itself? I don't think she ever did..

I'm gonna start calling YOU the funbuster..

Yeah.. no disrespect man, but i'm pretty confident that nobody is going to answer that question on this thread. At best you may get a PM.

As much as I hated Roloson.. it was more for his constant whining to the refs, not necessarily because of his skill. He put up decent numbers last year. Khabibulan's numbers were better though.. he's definitely an upgrade. BUT, goaltending is not the problem with this team. They need a couple bonafied 1st liners to play with Hemsky.. including a natural goal scorer. Hemmer leading the team with 66 points and 2 defenseman being in the top 5 really tells the tale IMO..

F and C or F n' G?

How about brook trout colors?

Some people just legitimately don't know any better. I took some friends out the other day who are spin fisherman. I had to pinch the barbs for one of them because they didn't realize AB was barbless - now they do. Then later, one of them hooked a whitey while I was at the other end of the run.. before I could get there he dragged it up on shore by the line in order to remove the hook. I ran over with my net and put the fish back in the water with my net and then we took the hook out. Neither of them did that again for the rest of the day and I didn't even really SAY anything. Like others have said.. it's usually just an education issue.

Take a picture and post it up on FFC.

Happier than I was a couple hours ago. They still need to beef up their offense though. Goaltending wasn't really their issue last year..

Hey! I'm a freakin genius sometimes!! http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=283439

WTH? http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=283429 Let's hope we can pull in Khabibulan for a season or two.. or something! I don't think JDD is ready yet.. as much as I really disliked Roloson.

Wikipedia is often good for a chuckle.. check it out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_pin_fishing Hopefully you can read what I'm referring to before someone else makes an edit.

Alright.. I gotta say, I'm really getting sick of this "no stars want to play in Edmonton" business!! http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=283382 I really hope it's the fact that he's trying to stick the 4 mil to Ottawa.. but I doubt it.

Yes, but slowly. We were quite surprised as well.

Which is another reason why it's beneficial to check the water temperatures each time. We were on a small trib to the Highwood on Sunday evening and the water temp on it was 19-20C. It varies river to river, creek to creek.

Absolutely amazing. Hopefully I'll get a chance to do that some day.

Sweet! Thanks for sharing.

Was using the original HiBore my last season before I stopped playing.. LOVED it.

Done.

I heard there's a couple perch in there..

What's more fishable right now? Northwest of Calgary (little red, dogpound, etc.), or Southwest of Calgary (Sheep, Highwood, etc.)? Thinking of going out tonight and don't want a 1.5 hour drive only to find unfishable conditions..

Some of you may do this already - but for the benefit of those who don't.. When assembling your rod sections together, I was always starting with the butt section. But a few trips back, the idea just popped into my head - "wouldn't it be easier if I started with the tip section?" Sure enough, instead of having to rest your butt section on the ground and possibly scratch it.. you just start with the tip section in your hand and work your way backwards. That way you can hold it out in the air in front of you the whole time because it's so much lighter. Very simple.. but I had just never thought of it before. I showed CDock last time out and he was like "that's awesome! I never thought of that before."
