  1. birchy i actually commented on one of his videos, i looked through all his videos to see if i could find the comment and looks like he deleted it.

    this is how it went

    nice fishing handling buddy your play those fish out pretty bad and leave them out of the water for a pretty long time.

    he gave his location in the video as he does in nearly every video. so i said your just making it easier for poachers to find fish.

    i didnt say anything nasty by any means. just stated the facts.

  2. i already called him on his fish handleing a few months back, i also commented on how he gave dirrections to a few holes.

    this is the responce i got.

     

     

    "Subject: How about you go **** yourself bag licker.

    Message: Hey sack muncher, I would love to meet up with your ****ing ugly mug somewhere out on the river so I could teach you a lesson in violence let alone a lesson in common sence. It's ****ing homo's like you I love to put in the hospitial for free. I sure hope to meet up with you very soon. Poaching, you don't even have the slightet ****ing clue what your talking about do you. Probably a flyfisherman and a calgarian to boot."

     

    i never responded to it because im waiting to run into him on the river, i sure hope i have a streamer on my line when i see him floating by in his raft!!

    hopefully hes wearing his life jacket

  3. Got started fishing as a kid on the Notty and Boyne rivers in and around Alliston, ON. (this is chucking lures). the moved to Ottawa and discovered Pike, pickeral and muskie, spent 10 years chucking lures at that on the Ottawa, Rideau and Mississippi rivers. then moved and got a house as a grown up in Picton ON, bought a bass boat and fished for Bass, Gar, salmon, and walleye. then we decided to move to Alberta.sold the house in Waupoos on the lake, sold the boat, (sold GPS with way point for 3time the gps value). and moved to Calgary.

     

    we got to Calgary and my son 15 decided to rebel long story short he ran away for 6 months lived on the streets and accumulated the Habits found there. In January he entered a program and when he did I asked him what he wanted as a reward for working hard at getting his life together. answer was to start fishing with me again. so I started looking around for information on rivers as fishing here is much different than at home found the FFA site 2weeks before it shutdown and the found FFC, Talked to Cody about type of fishing he wanted to try and he told me about watching some guy fly fishing around Princes island park and how it looked. so after 6 months clean and 1 yr of school completed. we took our lessons at Fishtales, and have been out most weekends since. on my son he is completing his last course now 80% average and has received his pre-selection letter form the armed forces. looking to basic training in the fall. wants to go either Combat engineer or vehicle tech. and I think now we are closer than we have ever been

     

    that is how I got started Fly fishing, wasn't my father or a older mentor it was my son.

     

    Proud father

  4. When i was 10 years old my uncle and step dad had us casting to a hula hoop on the front street. we would practice for an hour every chance my brother and i could. once we got the hang of things it was off to sibbald beaver ponds for some brookies and cuts, as well as sibbald meadows pond for some stocked rainbows. after our fishing improved it was onto the bow. fished a ton of the nw stretch with the rare school night or weekend trip down to fishcreek etc for the huge caddis hatch's. spent 2 weeks or more every summer in Skookumchuck bc fishing gerrard rainbows.

    i got it lucky! and im glad my family is so into fly fishing. sad to say it but my mom can whop my ass with a fly rod lol.

  5. The launch is pretty much ice free, but could be sketch on some of the boulders, should be manageable. Another option would be anywhere by Burnsmead a little bit of a trek on crutches but definitely doable! Doulgasdale by the ballpark is also accessible... Depending on when you go, I would/could go with you to make sure you get to where you wanted to go and to fish/hang out, though scheduling would be the crux, I'm sure others would volunteer as well! ;)

    peter thanks a ton for the quick reply!

    it honestly doesnt bother me where i go.

    i would be up for anywhere i dont have a ton of trouble

    i would love your company and i am free anytime after 11

    let me know if this works

  6. hey guys and gals im looking for somewhere i can cast a line for a few hours.

    im on crutches and cant deal with the ice or wadders but i am itching to fish.

    i was thinking of making the trek across town to do so.

    looking at the river behind my house its all jammed up with big ice slabs.

    i was thinking of that i could fish bellow the bridge at glenmore or the boat launch at fish creek.

    im young and pretty good on my crutches and for fishing im willing to fall,

    but i dont want to be on a unstable shelf because if it were to break i probally wouldnt be able to get my self back out.

    if you know if the boat launch at fish creek is ice free for the most part i would love to hear :rolleyes:

    or if anyone has a better idea then staying home.

  7. I know that there is no solid evidence supporting that these creatures do exist, this is what makes me really not belive that they do.

    i spend alot of my time in remote areas as do most of you. im sure if there were something out there there would be more pictures and proof supporting it. seeing as people are all over the place.

    I know a few people in the climbing communitty that spend ALOT of time in very remote areas. none of which have encountered anything.

    but after reading some of these storys it makes you want to belive it, and for some reason i want to see it for my self.

    however im not going to go looking for these things. but it would be something else to see one! granted they do exist....

    this was a great topic and it was awsome hearing others stories and the diffrent sides of view.

  8. Let me start by saying that i have been in bed for the past week and half due to a broken pelvis, so i have a ton of time on my hands.

    well i was on google earth taking a look around the mclean creek area. when i came across some numbers tagged on the map.

    i took a look at to my suprise that its a bigfoot sighting. well after seeing these i went to the link and read every report.

    this is the site http://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_county_reports.asp?state=ca-al these are reports for alberta.

    now my question for you, has anyone ever had an experince with a bipedal. seen prints thought they saw something?

    im very intrigued after reading these but i still dont believe it. there are many reports all over alberta of these creatures.

    whats your guy's take on this?

  9. i use gas plus gas all the time

    have been for 2 years.

    never had a problem but not sure if its cheaper quality

    i wouldnt think it would be a big deal.

    i have used their preimum gas in my talon before i took it to the track.

    i ran better times on the 1/4 mile then i do using co-op gas.

  10. Keep in mind that the edworthy area isn't open right now. Check the regs before heading out!

     

     

    nope it opened on the first.
