My first posting on the board.....I have an Aire 142D (14 ft commercial grade inflatable) drift boat with fly fishing rig and am looking for buddies on the Bow. I did the Fish Ck to Policemans stretch a couple times last fall after getting the boat, but am otherwise a Bow newbie. Have a few years of experience on other waters - Kootenay creeks, Elk, St Mary, Middle Fork Salmon, Selway, Birkenhead, etc.
I am looking for:
1. Buddies to get together with afternoons/evenings or full days during the week (self employed - so I can generally go play at short notice when conditions are good). One or two other guys in the boat would be great - share the rowing. Bow experts most welcome! Other newbies welcome too - we can figure it out together. Just brought the boat back to Calgary tonight and want to get out a few times before runoff hits in full strength.
AND
2. Father/son buddies. I have a 6 year old son who loves being on the river and flyfishing. Looking for companions for the summer months. We will be in town all of July and can get out any day on short notice. We also do a lot of extended trips - (day trips on the Elk while camping in Fernie / week long N Fork Flathead trip in July, etc.) Have many trips planned through the summer and am particularly keen on overnight trips. Also enjoy walk & wade and will be exploring the foothills.
Drop me a line.
