Don't confuse a wire worm with a fly.

Laughable! The otters were here way before us and the stocking of ponds, potholes and dugouts with trout. Eat away little otters, eat away... P.S. Don, "infestation", c'mon now!

Seems the flavor de jour is for these ultra fast rods. If guys tried a slower rod with a softer tip they would be pleasantly surprised.

Great fish!

Yup, you hit the nail on the head. Instant info, instant gratification, no one wants to work for it, henceforth the resource is not as valued when you don't have to "work for it". Human nature is not to value something you did not have to work for. Etiquette follows suit..

You're giving painting advise? Nice Pram Tungsten! I have used a pram on some of the BC pothole lakes, great solo fishing platform, beats a pontoon!

How big to sturgeon get in Alberta?

Nope, none out yet.

Maybe it will remind said 2 boats already at the launch that it is in fact a boat launch. A launch is not an area to get the boat prepared, tie on flies, untangle your 3 fly nymph rig, strap down boat, inflate/deflate pontoons, hook up anchor, put rods together, disassemble rods, put on waders, place oars in oar locks, load boat with the days essentials, etc... I say the above a bit tongue in cheek as I know guys have to go and fetch their vehicle, but really way to much *hit goes down at the launch that should happen away from the launch in the parking lot. Oh, and I love the dudes that give the pissed off glare that fish just above the launches as you float through their "run"

I have seen a lot of trout with this. I don't think just blaming treble hooks is a fair assessment.

CPS zodiac is too busy dealing with the rafters on the Elbow kowtowing to the multi millionaires who own the big shacks along the river to deal with the odd complaint from anglers along the Bow. No houses along the Bow in the South, and the residents that are close are use to the Fire guys joy riding all summer in their jetboat not to notice the different noise of a jet ski or an outboard jet leg on a boat. its obvious that bilaw, cps, fire dont give a *hit about this. I see it ll the time, especially close to the city limits where I fish. Its called picking the low hanging fruit and this certainly aint it!

Stain will definitely not penetrate or bond to an elastomeric coating.

Good Lord!
