Sweet! Thanks SJW.
-
Large Hoodie and a toque for me
-
Nice ones BBB. But the articulated ones that Max is tying these days would eat yours for breakfast
-
Looks great Dave!

1% of Patagonia's sales go towards protecting the environment also. Great company.

That's pretty cool. What software is that?
Thanks. It was done using Photoshop CS with a pretty slow process of framing, sizing, and rotating each image then transferring to the black background. Google "action central" for some cool framing actions that can be done with photoshop.

Good tie Din! Maybe make the wing a bit shorter but it will catch fish for sure. You are inspiring me to hit the tying bench for a few hours today.

Way too much time on my hands! A collage from a trip I did this summer. Hope you enjoy.
-
Just started last winter. Loving it. Building my first rod right now as well.
-
Awesome! Thanks MTB. And thanks to everyone at FFC.

Brent, this website might help you out.

I echo what rickr said. Take a course. You will learn way faster and probably enjoy it a lot more. Tyson at troutfitters does a really good job.

Just got the latest issue of Canadian FlyFisher magazine and who do I see in the reader photos section? Birchy with a 24" bully. Congrats man. And nice fish too!
-
Ha! LMFAO!
-
Awsome Birchy! I got started tying last winter and that was the first book I got too. My girlfriend bought it for me actually. Enjoy!

I have a question about these types of flys im new fly fishing. So how would you fish this fly?
Do a search on this site for an article on chironomid fishing techniques by MissinTheBow. Great info. Other info can be found if you Google Phil Rowley and / or Brian Chan, they have excellent articles on stillwater fishing techniques.

The Oldman right at the 22 bridge is good. And the highwood has been getting lots of threads on this forum. Do a search and you will find lots of info. I would say head into the forest reserve but it is closed right now due to fire danger. Lots of rain today, if we are lucky it will open up again soon. Keep checking before your trip.
Tight lines.

Hat and a Hoodie (Size L) for me.
-
You captured some excellent colours. What camera do you use?
Thanks.
Some are with my digital SLR (Canon 10D)
Some are with my Fuji Finpix F30 (great little camera until I dropped it on the trip)
And the rest are with a P&S Sanyo I think.

So you had to Bring Cash. Did you have a camper or Wigwam?
Ha! Nice try
To answer your question though we use an old converted Suburban for a "camper". It's not pretty but it gets the job done.
We call it the Trout Slayer:

Are you keeping the where part a secret?
Ha! Yes, the where part is a secret. Sorry but I would get my a$% kicked if I told everyone the locations. But I will tell you that as an Albertan it cost me 21 bucks a day to get into those fish. Plus a GPS, linked with topos on my laptop, some serious hand over fist climbing up and down canyon walls, and some dangerous crossings up to our nipples. Oh, and the beer is more expensive there
But it was worth every penny, and every minute! -
Thanks for the comments guys. This trip proved to me that I don't need to spend tons of money on vacations outside of the country. We truly live in the best place in the world. Here's some more pics for those that are interested.
-
MTB. That first pic (in the vise) looks like it could be used as a drake pattern of some sort. A few wraps of thread around the tail and it might just work. Just a thought.
