Remember the post about " Is It Time" I had many suggestions from a lot of people.Brought these suggestions to the heads of both organizations[ACA.F&W] to where our licence fees go.The intend was to get it in writing as a proposal for a regulation change[November].It was met with ,the usual response.But i am hopeful.It appears that even the NDP,were NOT in favor of raising,licence fees,for all.Having seniors pay & utilizing these extra fees ,for aerators .In lakes that are aerated,for some that aren't .ie Bullshead ......Hoping something comes out of the efforts

I would sure like to see fisheries do a survey on our trout lakes.Reg changes for some lakes are needed..

tHERE ARE A NUMBER OF YOU TUBE VIDEO'S,HOW TO CLEAN CUT,PICKLE ETC. Then of course a slip of a knife,a stomp,with a gentle toss.*hit hawks,ravens,coyotes will love you..

Smitty; You asked about winterkill/aerators.Doubtful for both.The res. is deceptively deep.South end[dam] somewhere btwn 25-35' deep.It can be dangerous imo.The east shoreline bt launch was 10-15',but go 200' south,on east shore[bank]20+'.Years ago we fished in the back pocket,kinda south of the launch.You go along that east shore & left.Bloodworms consistent action,til the wind blew us off.I believe they started with browns,a couple of years ago.To see if they to would also persue the Prussian Carp.The addition of Tigers should present some quality angling.I think there is now 4 species of trout in there..

I myself like the inclusion of Tigers.Will they control the invasives,it's better than them sitting on there laurels.Like all govt's have been doing in AB.Adds another oppurtune species to a lake.When Tigers are in the mood they'll eat damn near anything.Good job fisheries staff.!!

i HOPE YOUR TALKING ABOUT THE PERMIT.iF YOUR A SENIOR,THAT'S ANOTHER STORY.SENIORS HAVE NO LIC. & NO WIN CARD.SO IF THOSE WHO POSSESS THE PERMIT,THEY MAY FISH THE QLF LAKES.HOW DO WE GET THE SENIORS TO PAY ??? IF WE WENT WITH SAY A PERMIT FOR QLF 'S.I BELIEVE YOUR GOING TO HAVE TO ALLOW A PERMIT HOLDER ,1 FISH UNDER 16".THIS WOULD HELP WITH STOCKING REQIREMENTS.THE BIO'S WOULDN'T HAVE TO USE GILL NETS TO GET AN EST.OF WHAT'S IN THE LAKE.BEAVER IS THE ONLY C&R OF ALL THE QLF'S. YOUR WONDERING WHY A RETENTION OF 1 UNDER 16".THIS WHAT MANITOBA DOES TO GROW THERE TROPHY LAKES. KEEP YOUR COMMENTS COMING...THANKS NOTHING IN STONE...

I used to float in 10' springbok pram .From legasy to Caresland.No standing in that boat,low free board.You need to be able to slow down.I just drifted to spots & got out to fish the run.

Is it a 4x4.If so i had a 2011 4x4 & did well using open country by toyo.I have also had very good success.With Kal tires wild country year round tires.Primarily because of Not wanting to purchase 4 xtra rims & air pressure sensors.I went with the Kal Tire.Free rotates,free flat repairs ,vcellent warranty...Oh & they have the snow flake,if your a guy that heads west[bc]

Boat trailers generally only haul a boat.Utility differnt; If say you built a box,with a roof & put a boat rack on top of it.You could store your pfd's gas,batteries,motor etc.The cadillac version of what i'm suggesting is sold at CAP IT.Years ago there was an outfit called the custom caddy.Iwas built in Kamloops,solely with fisherman bias.

New qsf Dolberg lk & protection for Tigers stocked in the provinces lakes..There was rumours of implementing a Barbless rule for AB. Guess it didn't make to the reg's

If the place named ZEBEC is still around ,you could try him.He used to be up by the airport 19 st 40 av Calgary

Couple of things.No How To Right Yourselve..Take some classes,i see them teaching out a Bowness Park on the Bow..I have seen 2 guys use them things,on openwater lakes1 guy is dead[drown],other guy sold his..Mrs Andersen does it the right way,goes for the excersise.

They say [old wives] that things happen in 3s's.Well Christmas eve,met some of my retired fisher guys at local chinese food rest.Food was excellent,service was also.My trouble started when i got my fortune cookie.No little paper in the cookie[sh t],use the numbers to buy my 6 49 tickets.Christmas morning wake up to the sound of water running,in the house.Run downstairs,no water on the floor.But noise still there.Water humidifier that's hooked up to the furnace & the solonoid is stuck open.Water meter just flying around ,in the sight guage.Shut the valve off,little more static electrcity til repaired.Boxing day heading out,got rearended,by a woman in a hurry to spend the old mans cash.Today Katie[dog] wakes me up,boss it's cold in here.Go to thermstat,nothing registering .You know the other thing they say.You can't bitch if you got it free..YEA RIGHT RACHEL..Free thermostat didn't last 1 month,battery dead...Moral can't bitch...Yea & it's + 35 degrees outside Happy New Year

Tv news.

Murray; There IS Allison,Raven,Cold lk. & SLH.Raven is in terrible shape[Brood stk stn],Allison is a hatchery[generally looks after P&T,down s.w ab].Cold Lk. [Hatchery,they do THE AF3N & TIGERS.SLH grows most of the trout for the prov. These are guesstamits,on my behave..

Hi All; I watched an interview on CTV Calgary .About the rebuild/update of our hatchery.They are all overdue this.But just SLH,was mentioned.So they are moving out all the fish,some lakes will get 2 stockings.My question & hopefully someone may be able to answer.Stocking for 2018,not going to happen ?.Are they going to purchase stock from other hatcheries,hopefully disease free.thks. Brian

Troutlover; I am with you on this.Easier is always better IMO

I perfer the old style also.

did you try Admunson

Being that area is just outside the park boundaies/It would be a shame if it was relocated bear.Dropped off in the back country.The one grizzly in Waipourous was dropped .Up in Kakwa area.Problem bears should be dealt with.

Rogers. But i sometimes wonder ?.Phone used ,if that has a difference.Ie. my buddies apple 4 ,with Rogers works better than ever.Compared to my samsung 7[Telus] which gets reception,on the far ne corner on the water.
