  1. i have very good luck with small and slim damsel nymph (size 12 c49s/gold rib/marabou/bead) in mountain lakes. light green is the colour i have most success with. through out the past years fishing ab/bc lakes, most common damsel sampled from fish were baby damsel in light green - to pale or almost transparent colour. 

  2. Don,

    I fished upper k lake couple times since the ice came off. Fishing was great during first couple weeks after ice off, fish seem to hold nearby where water enter the lake. I caught more bull trout than cuttie this year in upper k. As for now... fishing will be tough as water is much higher and fish are more spread out. I prefer fish smaller hike in lake this time of year, there are many to choose from within kananaskis to banff.

    Late fall is good fishing on upper k lake, but you will need a boat/motor to go around the lake to find fish.

    Wedge pond is tough to fish without a boat, seems like these graylings are much smarter compares to the ones in bear pond. I dont know what's the size in wedge pond this year (got skunked last time fishing from the shore), but I think they are generally bigger than bear pond. I have caught grayling from wedge pond ~18" couple years ago before it got winterkilled.

  3. Interesting -

    I got one smallish brown earlier this year and one rainbow last year at POL that fit the description as well, with kinked/misaligned/humpy rear spines and shrunk tails. Didn't think much of it before all this whirling disease stuff hit the news and I began reading up on it... That said the deformities could have been caused by something else. I didn't take a tissue sample from the poor bastards. Looked like this pic: https://goo.gl/images/pGj0xI

    Im pretty sure I caught couple fish like that in Arbour lake. I thought it was due to poor handling fish from bait chucker. These fish come from hatchery somewhere.

  4. rio indicator line is nice to cast long leader with weight and bobber on lakes, and you don't need to over line them. I have 4 of them on different reels, one thing tho, the line is not made to last long. I pretty much have to replace one every year (depending on how often you use). The front orange part cracked up over time. I have seen more indicator lines in BC interior lakes than any other lines.
