Hi, my little brother was out in the Bragg Creek area today and he lost his Kodak Playsport waterproof video camera. He thinks he lost it by Allen Bill pond I know the chances of anyone on here finding it are small but if anyone does could they please contact me. The camera colour is black by the way.
Thanks,
Zack

Thanks Guys
I got my first Bow river brown today near Carburn park!
It was a really nice fish, if i had to guess i'd say more than 3lb.
(i'll have to get myself a weigh net)
What a way to start!
I scouted the river around mid-day, but i didn't see and activity. (fish or hatches)
The Bow was high and the clarity had dropped compared with last week.
When I went back at night I found a few fish rising, but they were sporadic.
Minimum 3 - 5 minutes between rises.
Maybe someone can explain what was going on entamology wise???
I started with a sz16 dun, I then switched to a small yellow sally. But no luck.
There were some decent fish rising and it sounded like there were taking
something more substantial off the surface as the rises were heavy and quite aggressive.
I switched up to a sz12-14 green drake with a heavy hackle, but still had no luck.
By this stage it was completely dark.
I suspected there may be some golden stone action going on, i didnt have any so I tied on
a salmon fly and was luckly enough to get one fish who slammed the fly and gave me a decent
fight.
Did anyone fish tonight? (sun)
If so, was it just dumb luck that I got a fish on a salmon fly, or were the fish actually taking
something that big??
We dont get any "noteworthy" stonefly fishing in Australia, so I have to get familiar with these bugs!
cheers

Congrats on the fish! hope theres many more to come.
what you said about them taking "substantial" bugs off the surface was probably stoneflys try a big foam stonefly pattern (there are some good ones at wholesale sports) don't worry if the rises aren't constant I've caught fish this way when there haven't been any risers at all. a couple nights ago there were a bunch of caddis hatching so it might be worthwhile to keep that in mind to.

Try Sibbald it has small fish and some big ones they stock it quite a lot and a lot of kids go there for some fun fishing. You catch them with in 2 minutes. Try it
Looked on google maps correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it a fair distance out of Calgary?

with flies costing a $1.69 at wholesale you definatley don't save money but I recently got into fly tying and like it much better than just picking the flies out if the bins plus you can create any fly you want and when it catches a fish there will be more satisfaction that you did it with something you made

those are some great photos!!!

nice video I like the FPF (first person fisher) view

I recently got a new rod and want to give my old one to my younger brother (he's 12) so that he can start fly fishing but I want to get him started somewhere where he's almost guaranteed to catch a few fish. I know that's kinda hard for a newbie to do at this time of year what with the lakes all frozen but I would really appreciate anyone's advice about good places be it frozen over or not.
Thanks

I recently got a new rod and I want to give my old one to my younger brother so that he can start fly fishing (he's 12) but I want to be able to get him started in a place where he's almost guaranteed to catch a few fish I know there aren't that many places like that in the winter what with all the lakes being frozen but if anyone has any suggestions even if the place is currently frozen over it would be greatly appreciated

never heard of blue trout but sounds to me there a bit like silver pike just kind of a colour mutation thats my guess or maybe some sort of thing that it inherits certain traits from it's parents.

I`m just wondering if you can buy tickets from fish tales directly
