it's hard to say but I think the next few seasons we will se less numbers but bigger fish until it rquals back out to some degree 06-10 roughly seemed to have a similar theme was some huge fish everywhere until te numbers bumped back up

are you striking on the rise or letting te fish take it down? my gues would be your to fast and pulling the fly away you need to strike post rise let the fish close his mouth then strike that is a small fly fish down to 2" should be able to fit we in there mouth could be refusals to but I your striking on the rise I think you need to wait a second seems odd but give it a go! good luck

start dropping back into some of the slower water fish arnt in the heavy stuff anymore small mayflies midges and boatman are tops forsure! leeches Juan's and stones are all great anchors to get the little stuff down

it will feel light forsure it will work but not well just won't feel much of the line loading try it out but you will probably want to get another reel with te proper line

they are hard to catch and few and far between havnt fished it much try streamers or the ninja stalking approach with smaller flies it won't produce fish like the bow it's a small stream with limited winter water

your fine Gil it's like launching it taking out at Mac pre and post 2013 flood

hopper dropper or small yarn indicator and lead the groups by a good distance? wait for tem to cruise in the flies direction? I would guess feeding hard on a emergence of some sort probably midges? far from a lake expert

large arbor all the way traditional arbors are a thing of the past

late response but it had bin good for a week now

I'm sure they took a hit saw far more suckers face whites etc than trout at the couple of fish rescues earlier this year but I don't know the overall trout to whitefish sucker ratio pre flood... I always assumed they outnumbered them way more. hope to get some Electro shocking data this year could be interesting

I've bin building and fishing blue halo fibreglass blanks! really digging them!! hoping to build a cane rod down the road they definetly have there purpose and spot on my quiver! not all about super fast action rods in some situations

crazy! I'm sure it more common than we think. taking samples at the treatment plant the day of the train accident like someone else posted in the link is a little off to me... would like to see more testing now and in more areas after the whole river has mixed glenmore south land police mackinnon and so on.. I'm sure u can find all sorts of stuff at a treatment plant the day they are evacuated and forced to run at a low capacity! anyone know how long ecoli can live....in the bow

heard the same thing about 22 still locked.. glenmore I heard there working on it but only allowing FD Mac looks good but tons of sand and muck turned mud with rain... looks pretty sloppy and probably getting stick if we get any rain Jansens from what I've seen looks bad land owner down there cleared his path and piled up at at the acces to the parking lot so that's out to carseland road is gone side channel now around the weir from what I've head 17th ave is also locked and has bin for a few years......

only time will tell know one can see the river structure until we get to float and watch the water clear.. it's all about the crystal ball right now

roll the dice is what I would do.. or help out at the fish rescues to do some scouting! help the fish! and somewhat enjoy the river!!!

when they lift the advisory? typically I would be fishing a little but at these flows on some banks I know are safe to some degree... it's your call I guess but beware the banks are far softer than usuall flows at this height and I don't know how this river ban thig works legally with tickets?

I think we are all trying to figure that out right now no access to mackinnon a yet I was told so I don't think we can see the damage sane with lower down. fish creek looks good police and glenmore hard to launch and no real parking... so it might be a few days to a week before anyone really knows I think.

glenmore a going to be crazy parking lots a awesome like others mentioned with carburn park bein a side channel I think lots of the flow will be on te far side. might be launching similar to mackinnon a on a gravel bar if we can get there

would definetly work now but when te river drops to fish able levels and lower I don't think that will be a option! all depends on what kind of channel there is! hopefully something similar to glenmore I guess when the water is low.. that's about all we got I think not sure if they will ever rebuild and dig out all te gravel... time will tell.

epic news!!!!! I wonder if anything the mayor said will make the Feds step up and have some new bridges and such built following new codes and regulations.. doubtful

recommended a friend Sneek down and check police with the lower flows due to the bridge train event( I'm out of town) looks like it started to wash out unfortunately ever worse the parking lot has several feet of gravel.. the burm did a good job protecting the bank road and start of the launch road but seems I have he'll turn the parking lot into a "high" ground from all te gravel build up! after the train cars hopefully get rescued I'm sure the river will rise back to what it was and more will be lost! looks like most of those bricks are sitting right next to the road! almost like the whole brick carpet flexes bends but eventually wiggles apart from the flows?? just guessing there!! if we had time it might be able to be put back together like lego!!

come on guys lets keep it civil... stop the personal bashing.. we all wish and want shoulda woulda coulda in the end it's a wait and see thing

u would think common sense would tell you that water makes wood mushy I'm pretty sure railway ties are used in lots of those bridges and why woul they not try non hazardous material? I get having it in the end of the train just seems so odd this city can catch a break! could be the beginning of the end for some of our career and people's lives... the damage will e unreal so many homes below...

didnt see this post.. posted similar in another area. not sure if I'm going to cry passout or puke! would take a flood any year over this. only positive I can see is the high flows possibly helping if the doom happens. I hope cp and the city actually have a plan for this. not sure if bumping dragging or hoisting is the plan. in hitching might cause the tail end to rock back and collapse forsure? this is totally insane!!!

for this who havnt seen this could be catastrophic... we though the flood qas bad. cp well known for cutting corners. the guy who claims to have inspected te bridge should be tossed in jail!!! bruuuuttalll!! http://www.ctvnews.ca/mobile/canada/the-bridge-is-failing-train-in-danger-of-falling-into-calgary-s-bow-river-1.1343758
