  1. I haven't posted many photos since my season really got going, so I thought I would spam some pictures from my last two trips to a hike-in brookie lake. Enjoy!

     

    Trip One

    We got to watch a little bit of grouse courtship. It was pretty neat.

  2. From what I can gather, if the person is in a public place and the picture is not being used for commercial purposes, should be okay.

     

    Also, no summary defamation of the individual eg. "This guy is a piece of **** criminal. "

    Simply a picture of a guy holding a string of cuts you met on the Livingstone, perfectly okay.

    This is correct. If you are in a public place, you have accepted a reasonable expectation of being photographed.

  3. Great photos. That fish looks a little bigger than the other golden trout photos I've seen, nice work.

     

    Never caught a golden before. Are they a char? Just noticing the white edges on their fins.

    I noticed the white edges too. They're a trout, though. A subspecies of rainbow if I'm not mistaken.

  4. I did the hike up to Southfork Lakes last week in search of some goldens. The wind was insane while I was up there, I spent one night up there and got about 2 hours of sleep. Hiked up the first day around 3pm and it took me about 3 hours to get to the 2nd lake. Basically spent all my time trying to get my stove lit so I could eat something.

     

    The next morning was still ridiculous windy with pretty insane gusts, but I manage to get a fly out for a couple of hours in between gusts. I was extremely happy to strike gold twice. I also missed a couple more and a relatively large one on the dry. Pictures do not do these fish justice. They are absolutely spectacular.

    In many ways, with the wind, sore muscles, and lack of sleep it was a miserable experience. However, it also proved that when it comes to chasing gold, it doesn't take much to make you feel truly rich.

  5. Sometimes it's not all about the fish, it's about the fossils. I was exploring this new piece of water and found multiple instance of large sand stone like rocks having tumbled down form the cliff face containing fossilized remnants of shells. Somewhere up on that cliff face is a fossil bed.

    Here are a few cutts.

    Always remember, sometimes in life you just have to stop and pick the wild strawberries.

  6. Some landscapes.

     

    Cline River canyon. That log jam is about 8-10 feet above the water.

    Blackstone River with the supermoon starting to creep its way upwards.

    Some views of the hike to Allstones Lake.

    Lightning on the North Raven.

    Lynx Creek. The first time I've ever been skunked there. It seemed completely devoid of fish.

    DSC_0085.jpg

     

    The upper North Saskatchewan River. No dice on the springtime bulls.

    IMGP0010.jpg

     

    A grim looking tree. It should be a black metal album cover.

    2014 started off with a savage series of skunkings on the North Raven, the North Saskatchewan, Muir Lake, and probably another place or two. It was June before I landed my first fish. Thankfully, I've been doing pretty good since then.

  7. Well, it's been a while since I've posted a bunch of pictures on here, so here's some from my season so far.

     

    This first group of flower pics is for BobLobLaw whose flower pictures I've always enjoyed. Sorry to hear about your misfortune, dude.

    A few of my first ever Lakers. I was really impressed with how strong they are, even when smaller. Very powerful bodies.

    More species, other animals, and landscapes forthcoming. Maybe a bit of a personal mission statement as well.
