  1. That was a great fish eagleflyfisher. I took the picture for you. Dean
  2. Hello Al My personal opinion is to avoid the Boa type boots. I have used them and am less than impressed. I do a lot of hiking in my boots and prefer Simms boots with laces. I do not have the need for the boa system or "quick unlacing". is there a rush to get out of your boots?? Thanks Dean
  3. I have this rod and like it quite a bit. Price wise, it is an amazing entry level trout dry fly rod. I use it on Alberta mountain streams (on no wind days) and for late season dry fly on the Bow. I actually sold some of my higher end rods as I liked fishing the CT. Dean
  4. Monger My thoughts exactly. Perhaps it is more difficult to create a new identified boundary hence the overall closure to Carseland? I respect the closure as it will definetly recoop the recently lost brown trout population. It is however unfortunate as October was one of my favorite times to fish the river. The fish have reached maximum mass and the river has reduced pressure at that time. Most outdoorsmen are steelheading and hunting. Dean
  5. Paul, Yes it is. The installation is really simple, with some slight fabrication required(depending on how picky you are). Feel free to have a look next time I see you. Dean
  6. Do switch rods count? If so, Beulah Switch 5/6
  7. No problem, great to meet you as well Paul Dean
  8. Wow, that is absolutely incredible work.
  9. I would like to be entered, Matinee please. Dean
  10. Season relating to hatches, past experience & what ever is already on my line from a previous trip... Dean
  11. Wow! That is overly heavy for a 3 weight reel.
  12. Personally I love to row and more often then not I am on the oars for the full trip. However, after a few fish is a good time to switch up. Dean
  13. Headscan, Did you ever get a chance to throw a skagit on the 4119? Dean
  14. Great combo's guys! Alhuger, How do you like the 360 gr compact with the heavier tips ie type 8's? Also, any issue with the big hairy streamers? Size 2/4 bow river buggers? Possibly articulated leeches with rabbit fur? Silver Doctor, What's the taper like on the vision ace? They are typically more of a scandi taper I believe. How does it favour with the heavy stuff? Regards Dean
  15. Who's throwing compact shooting heads 20' to 25' (incl. Scand. and Skagits) in the 320 to 380gr range for the Bow? I feel this is more than adequate enough mass for most of the streamers we use. I would like to know your combination as well, type of rod, length, line weight, gr of tips? Comments as well, anything you dislike? Or like? Regards Dean
