  1. I did a search and couldn't find the drift float times on certain stretches so your personal experiences would be appreciated Planning to do an overnight float from police to carsland. can anyone please tell me how much time it takes to float from mckinnons to carsland? thanks
  2. pm'd hey jayhad clear your inbox cannot get a msg to you
  3. so I got my hardwood floor installed and now the tiler is in tiling the other areas. since we are not doing a transition strip from hardwood to tile, the tiler noticed that one end piece has a few chips on the side so I need to cut a new board of hardwood to replace that one. none of my friends have a table saw so its looking like im gonna have to rent one from home depot. seems like a waste to rent one for 4 hours at whatever outrageous cost it is for literally one rip cut. anyone have a table saw I can use for literally 30 seconds tonight? we can share fly fishing stories and im willing to invite you on a drift not this weekend possibly next. thanks
  4. theres a guy on youtube his name is Hank Patterson. hes got some amazing tips that totally changed my catching percentage. Im sure he would answer whatever questions you may have
  5. buy a pontoon first and practice on that first. get comfortable with that and you'll get the basics of learning a drift boat. had a buddy out this weekend on the boat who never rowed a drift boat before but he does own a pontoon and he gets out quite a bit. He picked it up quite quick and basically earned himself a spot on the boat. on the other had a few weeks ago had another buddy out who never rowed before or been on a pontoon and ya long story short is he will only be invited when absolutely necessary. and he will only be rowing though the slow stretches
  6. which section did you drift? how did it fish? any surface action yet? how were the launches? would you repeat this weekend?
  7. I broke my sage rod tip while drifting. brought it into fishtales and they sent it out for me. roughly 2 months later it was ready at fishtales to pick up. of course I had to pay the 50 dollars. I lost the tip of my Winston rod, sent it in paid 175 usd and got it back within about 2.5 weeks
  8. do not buy a scadden unless you want to be making numerous phone calls to maybe get your boat sent in multiple shipments over the span of 4 months. finally after I received the last package the next day I receive another complete boat exactly the same. which I sold. guess I can't complain because I got my boat for free basically. but dave scadden is so disorganized and just a disheveled mess.
  9. did u stop at all? or just float straight?
  10. Just trying to plan my float for this weekend. Has anyone recently floated from Fish Creek to Policemans Flat? how long did it take? How about Police to Mackinnons? Thanks
  11. check online, quick search turned up cabellas
  12. Buy a Winston b3x or a sage one. Pair it up with a hardy ultra lite 4000dd. You can thank me later.
  13. wondering if you guys can suggest a place to get my hyde boat repainted or wrapped in Calgary at a decent price. thanks guys
  14. hey sanjuanworm I tried to pm you but you couldn't receive any pm's very interested about your buddy who wraps boats. please give me more info. thanks
  15. cold beer = more fish the colder the beer the bigger the fish at least that's what I been told
  16. cannot put a price tag on cold beer lol
  17. planning to buy one for my drift boat, can get 30 percent off the website so the price is not stupid high as normal. anyone have them? what are your thoughts on the quality? also if anyone is interested in buying I will extend my discount through them to you. can order together and shipped right to Canada for free
  18. Was considering buying that one but this bad boy came out on top http://www.dji.com/product/inspire-1
  19. 1000 usd? The one I bought for my work cost 6k cad
  20. It's not really that difficult to get a permit. For the drone thy I have all I need to do is go online and submit a form. Once I submit it online with the details I'm legal to fly
  21. Ended up buying the fishpond boat net in the river camo. Love the net. Wanna take pictures of it rather than the hogs it scoops up
