I really like the Transitions Drivers lense in a comfortable frame. Best $$ @ WM Optical. Polarized and trans from yellow/green to bronze/brown. http://www.transitions.com/en-ca/products/transitions-drivewear-sun-lenses/

Nope.

Great post Pepper! Email to LUF@gov.ab.ca sent.

BC uses the potential for oil and grease contamination as an enforcement tool. Witnessed it happening on the Skeena several years back. Tailgate mounted rod holders were popular at the time.

Damn, I just loaded one onto my new Douglas. Haven't fished it yet... I find it pretty hit and miss with Airflo lines myself. I think it was the only 6WT DT line in the shop. I will get out with it and let you know.

Currently snowing on Signal Hill!!! = Happy

I have a few of the more difficult to find materials for the traditional Jock Scott. What are you having trouble with?

Ok, Crazy! I'm watching multi million dollar flood mitigation projects on going. Bow thru the city is starting to look like an aqua duct of riprap. I agree, we very much represent the minority generally, but we make up the majority of recreational users of the river. And yes there are more important considerations. But I have to disagree with the notion that the Bow will be an ankle deep trickle at any juncture. I don't think anyone of us feels the need to push an agenda ahead of general allocations. All I'm suggesting is if it is the case that these historic closures are a result of regime change, all the more reason to make some effort to preserve this incredible watershed and the inhabitants there in. Ya that's all...

Nice! I like the weed guard...

"Maybe we need to try and convince the provincial government to order a temporary, controlled release of water from Ghost Reservoir to assure adequate flows for a healthy fishery? If we use Ghost for flood mitigation, why not drought mitigation as well? Seems pretty simple to me. I think that's the discussion we need to be having, solutions to maintain adequate/stable flows, especially during a drought. Time for the city and the province to step up to the discussion and set some guidelines, with, an action plan." Not Maybe! We do need to convince the province and more importantly the profit driven company administrators to agree to hear eco-friendly initiatives=healthy rivers. I think there may be an opportunity to press for an action plan. In July 2015, the agreement between the Government and dam operators expired. The Gov scribes are currently reviewing the expired operational agreement and will get back to us soon… so time to start bending some ears perhaps. Find your closest Gov rep and try to speak to fish friendly flows…might be a starting point. Unfortunately, this year Ghost Rez was dumped during run-off (6m) and the resulting refill has had a major influence on late July/Aug tailwater conditions. If anyone has a link to recent Ghost Reservoir data to share it would be appreciated. Curious about the last bump in city flows. DO

Search wiki Tung oil...

Ya, black is great... especially in choppy water and flat light. But no you didn't win. And as for the breathable wader issue,I guess you will have to stand up wind of me... that is, if you win.

Ilove this tread! He said "heap bad medicine" lol. Generally, I like to drift pale yellow and white thingama's for the the same reasons proported in prior posts. The question I would like to pose is this; What to do, to be able to see that effing thing as it drifts into the brightest light of the day. Late afternoon, facing west. After fishing riffle, run and pool for most of the day, you finally reach THAT piece of water only to be blinded by solar radiation...bright chart,orange, every option disappears. But one. Guess which indie to WIN an afternoon fish with me. DO

Check out Drive wear product. Transitional, polarized. One pair of sunnglasses does it all. My progressive cost approx 370.00 at Walmart http://www.drivewearlens.com/effect.php

Thought is was a good show. Kudos to BowRiver Shuttles. Any guesses on where Tapam was filmed?
