    Fisheries Management Meeting In Rocky

    in News Discussion and Current Issues

    Posted

    Don,

     

    Sorry I couldn't make the meeting. Was there any talk on these issues:?

     

    1. Are the proposed regulation changes for Fall Creek to protect the Bull trout populations going through?

     

    2. Should we introduce more "fly fishing only" stretches to rivers similar to the Maligne in Jasper? Prairie Creek comes to mind.

     

    3. As mentioned by Mcleod, other than the usual Rainbows & Brook trout how about introducing some new trout species to some lakes such as the FLIPPR Tiger trout lakes that are so successful in Manitoba?

     

    4. Any thoughts about stocking Golden trout in some geographically isolated high alpine streams? (I'm dreaming, I know.)

    Some thoughts on my mind:

     

    1. Should fishing still be allowed on the Red Deer River in the fall during the Brown trout spawn considering the fragile population?

     

    2. Are the proposed regulation changes for Fall Creek to protect the Bull trout populations going through?

     

    3. Should we introduce more "fly fishing only" stretches to rivers similar to the Maligne in Jasper? Prairie Creek comes to mind.

    6. What about a pollution study on Sylvan Lake? The fish populations are good for now, but this lake has some future challenges with the amount of planned development surrounding it.

    Hello Bigbowtrout,

    Hello Tungsten, murray & 126Barnes,

    I believe Alden did not have any tenant insurance.

     

    Hello Uberfly & Headscan,

    Alden had a 4wt Scott with a Lamson reel, an older 5wt Orvis with an LL Bean reel, and a 6wt Sage Z-Axis (690) w/ a Loop reel. Tough loss. We will keep a look out thanks.

     

    Hello eatsleepfishrepeat,

    Alden had 1 box of dries (parachute & grizzly adams, caddis, some green & brown drakes, flying ants etc) and 1 box of nymphs (bead head pheasant tails, prince nymphs, San Juan worms etc). Thank you for the offer.

    Hello All,

     

    My buddy had all of his fly fishing gear ripped off from his truck over the Christmas holidays. He had a big bag with everything including 3 rods in it. He was new to the sport and I don't want him to give it up, because he really enjoyed himself on the water. I donated him my old 4wt, but he can't afford much more. If anyone has any old rods, reels, lines, flies, leaders, vests etc. you don't use it would be much appreciated. I can pick-up in Calgary or Edmonton. PM me if you would like. Thank you.

    passing this along...

     

    TUC Members:

     

    It is with grief and sadness that we inform you that Doug Cressman, Trout Unlimited Canada’s Chief Executive Officer, passed away this morning. As many of you know Doug fought a long and courageous fight against cancer. His spirit never waned and his passion for the work of Trout Unlimited Canada never diminished. He will be missed by everyone in the TUC organization and by all of those who believe in the importance of protecting the places where wild fish swim free.

     

    In this difficult time we ask that your thoughts be with Doug’s family. We will provide information regarding funeral arrangements as they are available.
