I am one of the a__holes with a jet. I always go wide of shore fishers, planing but at a slower speed, as the depth allows, and slow way down when passing canoes or drifters, and as far as possible, but in the eyes of some that is not enough. I agree, if you cant be courteous, dont get on the water. I have also pulled three people off the river in three years, and saw the rafters go over the weir a few weeks ago. Respect the water and mother nature, as they always win.

I agree, not only know where you are going, but there are several signs for a long way.

Witnessed two not so smart people use the weir for an amusement ride yesterday. Hope they enjoyed it, as it alomst killed one of them.I saw him go under and thought he was a goner for sure. Buddy kiss the ground you walk on and stay off the river. To Carseland and Strathmore resue,GREAT WORK GUYS !!!!!! You were amazing. Bill the rafters for the rescue.

Its a new hybrid, I think they are called the rocky mountain bastard fisher.

Curious about how much these lines retail for, and what it is you like about them?

A couple of years ago, a guide from Bent Rods got a client in to an even bigger one, FRICKIN AMAZING, I want to go sturgeon fishing!!

As they say on stampede week, Howdy Foks. I have a 16 ft alum flat bottom. I want to place some swivel low back seats on the back, center bench and bow. If I screw on a seat in center, for 1 passenger, and or rowing, that is fine. But if I have 2 passengers, to plane, then 2 would need to be center. So what i am asking is, center seat or not. Any feedback welcome. Thx

Thank You Dave, the certifications are all the same, from ACSA and Alta Gov't. I will give Bob A call.

Thanks, PM sent

Howdy All, I am working on COR certification, & It will be up to me to get the Health and Safety program in place. I would love the opp to pick the brain of an NCSO for some direction, if one of you has some time. Would gladly provide a lunch and beer/s, or maybe a day on the water, for the favour. If anyone can help, feel free to PM me. Thanks

Called on a family at carseland last weekend, but the CO's were far away. They were going to try to get there, so dont know the outcome.

Thx for the advice guys

Thanks Don what would you suggest it should go for?

I have a chance at two Bamboo rods, more interested in one than the other. May be from the 40's, I suggest hand made just a guess. 11 feet long, I like all about it but 1 eyelet is slightly bent. For those of you who know, how easy is it to straighten or replace the eyelet, and if replaced does it effect the rod value much? THX

I do not, but you can ask Robin Ingram at Bass Pro

Could I use something like verathane?

Hi Peter, if you do not mind, I would like to take you up on your offer to borrow epoxy for my oars. Paul

Thx Guys, lots of good info to consider.We would use it on the Bow. My wife swims like a rock, where as I am a strong swimmer, ex lifeguard. But depending on the circumstance, sometimes that does not matter. I have pulled good swimmers from the river before.

Nicely Done !

Here is hoping that this is a blessing in disguise, Best of Luck

Having a brain hemorage trying to download pic. I have even shrunk them with zip and no luck. Any pointers, as I need what is left of the brain?

I see a big store has inflatable PFD's on sale. Want to buy one for wife and me. Any feedback as to personal choices is welcome.

I just may get back to you on that. I will do a little more home work on it. Thx
