  1. I hope the dinks that crashed in on my group today read this.

     

    Me and 3 friends were fishing a run today and a group of 8 guys decided to crash in and fish all around us. One guy was so pissed that we were there he went and sat in the bushes by himself for 2 hours and sulked (I thought he was being nice by not crashing in on us). After awhile he decided to fish a bit and he was the worst person in the whole group. If any of you guys are a members on this board you should be ashamed of your self and actions.

    I learned on the St. Marys River that cutthroats and rainbows love to eat anything pink. I must say the same holds true to the fish in and around Calgary.

  3. God do I hate those tiny BC chironomids. Got enough for the early season opener done. All on Mustad C68 #14's & #16's. All but a couple with tungsten beads for those fish that seem to be feeding @ +20'. Been laid up for a while so got time to do some tying.

    Don do you want to give the recipe for a of those chironomids? I have been cranking through a bunch of the wicked patterns in the book Modern Midges. Some of the ones you tied up look pretty nice as well. Cant wait till the ice breaks up to hit some lakes in BC.

  4. Ah, that sucks that you can't take it out and cast it first. I've bought rods in the past based on tons of good reviews that didn't fit my casting style. That being said I do have the 590 Z lined with an SA GPX and it casts beautifully.

     

    Agreed.... I loved my XP 590 with the GPX line, but my ZAxis 590 with the GPX has been m go to rod for the past 2 years! I use it everywhere... bow...the gap.. small cut streams...lakes!

     

  5. Haha - for cutties sure, but not spooky browns in skinny water!

     

    ahhhh....I didnt get a chance to fish the skinny water this year. I would love to get out and try it some time. I can see the thingamabobber being great for fast runs in cuttie water. It would save me from swearing when a cutt attacks my normal thingamabobber. Better yet I should just attach a hook to the normal thingamabobber and call it a day.
