  1. another sweet film by the "New Wave Angler" thanks man, i always enjoy you r vids!!!
  2. Just threw this together, tung. bead, little different colour but the legs look pretty good. I dont have that colour, mines mottled turkey thin skin. before the goo looks good also
  3. Im 44 and mom wont let me go anywhere legally impaired for 24 hrs. That said im sure my wife wouldn't mind if I tried wading through the river in this condition, thats real Go figure I had to go out into traffic for something "Today" of all days, made it but she was stop n go this morning.
  4. These are the good times the freezing started to wear off about 3 hrs ago. The anti-inflamatory pain meds they gave I cant do because of my chrones disease. Hello, they sent me some Tylenol 3's as well woot woot just jokes, if I dont have to I wont take anything but, t 3's def do the job, if need be. Good old Advil regular strength seems to work great for most stuff, unfortunately Advil and chrone's don't mix
  5. the good thing with boatmen patterns is that they are typically easy to tie. Murray, theres a bead on that fly eh? is it glass or tungsten?
  6. yes i do spend a lot of time at work fired up watching fly guys and the river, theres actually a couple of spin guys that r always down there. Anyways yes its a good place to be. Seeing them and not being able to go gettem is painful sometimes, the good thing is that the rivers still there after work
  7. seeing the river on the other side of the fence doesnt help lol! but yes a great view from work.
  8. woowee, thats a beauty!!
  9. dead drift, strip, swing, this fly does it all, just sayin. you can leave the legs longer or angle them towards the head for a more natural look but it doesnt seem to matter. Even though this isnt tied using it, I really like Super Fine Dubbing for this pattern, you can get it really tight and slick looking. These bugs are not hairy or say "buggy" as some.
  10. Got it done today, STOKED!! WOOT WOOT!
  11. i feel like i'm in jail Just saying
  12. found his leg in a bunker and some other parts, not sure what they where?
  13. I understand but, this trip has just come up as an old friend has contacted me. It costs a lot so if i cant get someone I feel comfortable with we just wont go. We'll try and if it doesn't work out, better luck next time
  14. I thought he was the guy behind the humblefisherman vids. Thank you for pointing that out though...
  15. Im torn at this point, I have a past here. Man I wish I could go back 10 years this decision would be much easier, I think. One guy I would like to use but am hesitant because of my past here, not really hesitant, I just wont do it. Good life lesson for myself and others to always try to be cool, you just never who ur gonna need or run into down the road. BF
  16. never seen a double worm rig and never will.
  17. seen josh on tv and his humble vids, sweet!
  18. Thanks for the responses, gotta make some calls.
  19. Im looking for recommendations. A buddy and I are planning a Bow float for early oct, Im finicky, in paying for a guide Ive only used Terry J out of FishTales and am reluctant to book without him. That said he's popular and its not looking like he's available on the days that I am. It costs a lot of money and I want a good guide, someone that does it for a living, not just some guy that has a boat. Its happened once before and it wasn't awesome, hence the reluctancy. Im sure there is a couple more really good guides out there, I just don't who they are. Any help would be appreciated.
  20. Crickets
  21. LOL, my boss chirps me all the time. Im old so I get as close as I can. I was not speaking to you it was a general comment to any and everyone!!
  22. Our greens aren't super quick but have good speed, IMO we have really good greens. Before the little spot short and left of the hole cutter is the dragon fly from the previous pic After anyone who fly fished the bow in Fish Creek before 17 years ago will remember this tree, now its part of 5 and 13 green. I know "fisherman" have cut our fence numerous times in numerous spots along 2, 3, 4, 13 etc, Ive seen and heard about it. Please stop it, it costs us time and money, just walk around. Kids come down from the houses in Mckenzie lake and pillage and steal from our course on almost a nightly basis and that cant be stopped, their kids! If ur the one that brings the cutters with you and does it please make a better choice, its trespassing, your breaking the law and vandalizing our golf course. I personally could not cut a hole in a fence, to me its just wrong and being a law abiding citizen i wouldnt even consider it. Just saying.
  23. we've got a coyote den between hole 5 and 6, looks they got their fill last night!
  24. awesome stuff man!
