  1. WOW!That entire post is so wrong on so many levels.

    So in other words...screw everybody else???

    i didnt say that at all.i said i give everyone as much room as i can going up the bow which is alot more than i can say for alot of drift boats that go by you ten feet away while your fishing a run on foot.jet boats dont have the city fishing option.we have to fish the lower bow.

  2. Haha, nicely done. Weird to wear it around the house? Maybe.... I've never had a vest to call my own. I have made do with a backpack and the shore. I think my first vest I will wear to bed a few times just to get comfy in it. :P Let us know how you like it.

     

    Im the same way,backpack and no vest.I just step off the river and sit down to retie or change flies.

  3. i bought a ford ranger with 250k on it and drove it to 350k and it was running great when i sold it to buy another ranger.i never had to put a cent into that truck.that being said my uncle bought a diesel ford with 150k on it and the motor went at 170k so i guess you never know.being that you know the owner and the fact that he wasent hard on it and kept up maintence i wouldnt have a problem buying it.

  4. hahaha beachcombers was sooo boring as a kid lol. But i loved how Space replayed Hilarious House of Frightenstein.

    beachcombers was boring but when you only had 2 channels to watch you were screwed.if any of you want all the old shows you need to get a jailbroken apple tv system.it cost $180 and has no monthy fees.you get pretty much every tv show and movie ever made.it streams in directly from the internet so its never supose to go down.i have been running it for about a month now and its all i watch.it is fully legal to have and run at this point but who knows what the future holds.

  5. Folks,

     

    I'm sure that everyone must get them. From salesmen to third world countries trying to sell you something. It's phone spam and it is really ticking me off.

     

    Other than a called ID, is there anything else where you can get rid of the suckers.

     

    What really does my attention is Fed Govt opening up cell phones to the same kind of abuse. IDIOTS!!!

     

    regards,

    i dropped my house phone altogether 2 years ago and now use only my cell.i get no more than 1 spam call a week on my cell where i was getting 5 to 10 a week on the house phone.the rate plans for the cells have come down alot and with the fav 5 you can call 5 numbers anywhere anytime for no charge.for me it was a solution.

  6. Sorry to hear about your arm.

     

    You can nymph fish lakes very well with spinning rods and small bobbers and nymphs or leeches. My grandkids have all caught fish like this in Police and Lees Lakes.

     

    You can use a clear or colored torpedo float in either rivers or lakes. I prefer setting the kids up with the round red and white bobbers in lakes. Yeah those bobbers. ;) They work just fine with flies below.

     

    Good luck!

    Yea i do the same for my wife.spin rod small nymphs and small indi.

  7. Okay i will take it your just joking right ?

     

    Maybe not, there are alot of people here who want to eliminate brook trout altogether.They are an evasive species eating the food the native trout need and dont usually grow all that big in the streams or brooks because of the over population. They are a very nice looking fish though.

     

  8. I hit one 2 years ago.It was a mother and 2 fawns who never looked my way until it was too late.I hit the center fawn at about 60-70k down from 100 because i was hard on the brakes.I was lucky as far as truck damage but felt bad for the little deer.Like junior said it was best not to swerve but take the hit strait on.A big deer is going to do alot of damage no mater where it hits your truck.Good that nobody was hurt.Trucks can always be fixed but it still sucks.

  9. On behalf of CGYGUY I would like to thank whoever it was that towed our boat back to the launch site shortly after our departure on Saturday morning. Our jet conked out and we were left with quite a walk back. But, the kind gentlemen were gracious enough to delay their day and assist us. Once again, THANKS.

    FHD

     

     

    This is why i always jet upstream in case something happens, you can always drift back to your starting point.

  10. it was an offer i might have been interested in if i didnt already have a cheap source for quiltiy flies.not all low priced flies and garbage.i just order up 21 dozen for $93.this was from a seller on ebay that i have been buying from for quite awhile.i have a friend who has tied for over 40 years and gets me to order flies for him because he cant tie them for the price i buy them for.i just got a dozen triple decker hoppers for 4.79 and i have been using and catching fish on that pattern for the past 6 weeks.if you buy the patterns for our rivers you can catch fish with them.as far as cheap flies holding up,my buddy has now landed 15 fish above 16 inches here on the bow in the past 3 outings plus the ones he has lost all on the same fly.not the same pattern, the same fly.i posted a pic of one of his fish in the bow river section,a 24 inch brown with the fly in its mouth. out of those 21 dozen that i just ordered this week, 3 dozen were big rubber leg beadhead stones and 4 dozen were triple decker hoppers.where could i get them for that price in calgary or even get the tying materials for that price? so not all low priced flies are bad.
