I use a 12 lb mushroom anchor for my scadden toon For the pump I use an electric one that can be plugged into cig lighter of car. It works great. I don't use a pressure gauge as I just test with my finger. If I push on the bladder with one finger I'm looking for the bladder to give about a half inch to an inch. I monitor the pressure the same way throughout the day as the temperature increases from the sun so does the air inside the bladder and I let some air out. I also take a manual pump with me on the float just in case.

Winston b3x. I have 4,5,6,8 wt b3x and the 4 wt paired with hardy ultralite dd is by far my fav. I have tried a few 4 wts and always go back to the b3x

hoppers

i have the g4z as well, they are great! i also have the simms g3 guide waders and pretty much the same as the g4z minus the upper part. i will stand by simms and will always only buy simms gear especially waders. i have had my g4z for two seasons now and have over 100 outings on it with hiking and what not and still have yet to have a problem. i prefer to wear my g4z over my g3 guides. they are so damn comfortable. i even wore my g4z on +30 days on the water and remarkably they were not that hot at all.

try fish creek park. anywhere south of harvey passage is fishy

what do you guys think. i think it was a great move. hopefully new players will bring to the canucks what was lacking before. plus luongo cost me alot of money during his epic fail during the playoff run lol

I swear u posted something like this a while back but to answer your question: sjw and small bh pt work. Try midges. Or you can try reading the threads in this forum. You can use the search function (the icon that looks like a magnifying glass) and type a couple of key words such as winter flies or something. There have been countless threads on winter fishing and flies to use.

They are sitting in faster currents. Not the slow slack deep wintering holes that you'd find rainbows during winter

With all this nice weather I haven't been able to head out fishing so I'm not posting pics of fish but of my newborn lol She loves simms like her dad

This is why I never shop at WHOLESALE SPORTS. There I let the cat out of the bag. Funny thing is I've ran into the wss employees at fish tales

Policeman flat is not a hole. Go anywhere below the weir on the bow Where it's not frozen over. As for location of holes. There are lots everywhere. Just read the water

Aquaseal. I would also look at this other product called "never wet". they sell it at home depot and i think would be a easy and fast solution!

try the bow river. try it with hoppers, if that doesn't work try a hopper dropper

Yes I called them over and over and left messages for them to call me back. But they never responded or picked up my calls. I tried. Too bad for them they snooze they lose.

They are terrible to deal with. I ordered mine at last years fly expo from the scadden reps and I finally got it 3 months later After over 10 calls and after about 3 packages (u shaped bladder, frame and pump). The upside is they were so disorganized that the day after I got my final package I had another delivery at my door and it was another brand new whole outlaw x5 pontoon!

K give up. All outta ideas. Bow river it is. Gonna fish around the lake chap area. Anyone wanna join for a little walk and wade sesh?

I have an scadden outlaw x5. It's great. It breaks down small. It has a standing platform with lean bar. Also it has a steel rear deck; perfect for mounting motors. Works great on lakes and It's good on the bow too.

Hey guys you ever find yourself planning to go fishing. But can't decide where to go? Well that's me. The boss has got her baby shower tomorrow and I got an excuse to get away all day. I live in Calgary and Was thinking about heading out first thing. Not looking for creeks as I have had my fair share this year. How's the oldman or Livingston fishing? Is it worth a drive to the elk? If anybody wants to join your welcome to.

Take it to fish tales. They will ship it out for you. It will cost 55 bucks. And when it comes back they will call you and tell you it's ready. It took mine a little over a month turn around time

need a account, anyway to repost whatever is posted on here. thanks too lazy

Also make sure to whip the line on your forward cast to make the biggest splash on the water. Bow river trout love that

HOPPERS, hopper droppers, dropper hoppers, hopper with a hopper dropper, or if your feeling extra lucky the hopper dropper with a hopper dropper dropper

don't mean to hijack this thread but there are so many people like this out there. I once was filling up gas and this redneck fckface decided to pull his rust bucket truck right in front of mine and block me to fill up all his tires At first i thought he was just gonna be quick and top up his tires but as soon as i was done filling up my gas the guy was still there going to his 2 of 4th tire. i politely asked him to move. as there was a line up behind me and he was blocking oncoming lane. his response was "when im fcking done now get back in your car and shut up". i was shocked that people act in this manner. My buddy who was in the passenger seat told him to watch his mouth.and the guy got up and right in his face and my buddy one punched him out cold on the side of the gas station. wasn't smart on that guys end as my buddy is a 6 foot 300 lb russian football player. the guy filling up his tire was out cold and his passenger got in the drivers and moved the car and we were on our way with the redneck still sleeping on the concrete. I feel that if guys like the lincoln guy or the guy at the gas station are that ignorant they are asking for it. obviously talking hasn't helped them. so maybe a bit of negative reinforcement will show them that what they are doing isn't working again sorry for jacking the thread

So I ended up deciding on Saturday that we wanted to go on a full day float on Sunday. Called up fish tales and they helped us out right away even with such short notice it was great that they could help us out. Set us up with Mike Algar. Great guide. Totally recommended. Got us into a tonne of fish and really receptive to what we were ultimately wanting out of this drift. (Lots of fish on dries) Will be definitely requesting Mike for future guides and corporate team building activities when I set them up!

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I was hoping to float the bow. Gotta book something asap
