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.

Skinny George, got this pattern off that Leroy Hyatt show on Saturday mornings. Was prolly the most productive lake fly I fished last year. This is a killer pattern and super simple. Ive also tied it weighted. Also killer but, not as skinny.

Thanks, interesting. Do you think it is being taken as a scud or damsel imitation? What size do you normally tie it in?
One way to weight it but not fatten it up too much might be to tie in a strip of weight wire down the back of the hook shank. Gary Lafontaine tied a scud in this manner that he figured rolled over on its back when at rest, and righted itself when pulled, hence broadcasting the flashback.
Big Foamy;;Can i ask the wire is gold ? The back is ??? Thanks

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

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.

I can remember when it was stocked with rainbows.Thety grew not large,but then there were 10 fish a day limits etc.I would like to let you guys no.That when ,your fortunate to catch a rainbow.Alot of them would be purely wild.So if you can release them.If enough show up in creel card notes,the govt,might consider saving them...Just a thought...Considering they could very well be15+ yrs.old..

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...
