not a bad win tonight! we played pretty good.. looked puck hungry.. some good passing play and glenscross played great on the 4th line... really skated hard again.... not too worried about out past trades.. look way back.. we traded giguere... he turned out too win a cup ring with the ducks... or when i was just a kid we traded some hall of famers away and the upside was we won the cup.... im sure we have traded away alot more "talent" that worked out for another team... i would figure most teams have done that alteast once!! trades happen...... we had too do something.. the current team was playing like a bunch of jokers... i like who we have now... prust will be back.. he is a free agent and twice already he has comeback after being traded away by sutter..... its also hard too say if sutter is really done! -
burbs just roll around.. kinda like a sucker i suppose.... ive pulled a few out of the bow.. will post a few pics tommorow! cool too see on the end of your line when your expecting something else!they have very poor vision ive read and mainly feed at night (useto slay em afterdark icefishing) and i think they depend on smell more than there eyes too find food! BUT a buddy who frequents fishcreek slays a dozen or more a year easy on the leech pattern in the frogwater!

ive had a couple pms in regards too this today and as i see it alot of te big trudes, stimulator, chernobyl, dave.whitlock hopper, foam bugs or something big and bushy oldschool style that would double for either of the two bugs i listed (grasshoppers n stoneflies) so any big bushy fly is good unless you wish too get specific/realistic with either of te two bugs!

yea according too tsn thats is the pending trade drew.. kotalik has too waive his no trade clause too 1 of the 3 teams he dosnt want too trade for (guess who is one of the tops 3) time will tell if this goes well but i think sutter is clearing space too sign a few dudes on or off our team at the end of the season... this might jstu be a shake up for the rest of te team.. the toronto deal i like forsure! and olli wanst doing a whole hell of a lot really....... but ultimatly.. lets see what happens with the end result come playoff time... i gots faith in sutter! -
this months challenge is almost done! submit you entires! i will have a poll up and next months challenge at the beginning of febuary!

brad fishing lead in teh parks is illegal.. even if u tied a small wooly bugger i would bet that over half of the weight of your fly would be lead.. easy.. if not more.. u htink some marabou, chenille and a hackle fibre outweight half dozen lead wraps? so u are only technically allowed" 1% and 50% of your flies weight is lead.. ur done... all fishing store in the parks also sell non lead weights lures beedhead flies etc because it is illegal.. u could fight it but u would get fined .. guarnteed

its getting frustrating that is forsure.. seems all teh dudes are snakebit.. every game we have a few almost sure things and we hit the post, puck hops, waite a half second too long too pull the trigger........ we are slowly turning the corner i suppose but HOLY F*CK at this rate we will be joining the leafs.. im not too concerned i figure we shall make it.. but if the avs n nucks keep it up we will be playing for 8th spot! -
from what ive seen for most fishing 7 n 8 wt switches in the 11 ish foot range seems too be the most popular... with casting most people seems too talk about double overhand casting with scandi lines.. i think it all matters on what type of fish u are targeting .. for pink salmon i think a 5wt would be nice but if its larger salmon/bigsea run browns.. u might want a 7 or 8wt?

nicely done!!!!!!!

i just use a little dish soap n water like others mentioned

No Water For Fish In Alberta's Water Allocation Review
maxwell replied to Lancaster's topic in General Chat - Fishing Related
this is something everyone needs too send letters in too! if not our rivers with irrigations (bow and oldman to name two) will suffer greatley.. they will be drained more and more like this year with no rain too fill the farmers fields.. a good friend once mentioned on how alberta was a frekain desert and alot of the crops we grow are water suckers.. not ideal for our eastern climate.. so the farmers want mroe water! and our streams n resivoirs will suffer! -
it sounds like a cool idear.. this was brought up a few years back and turned into a 10 page fight.. good too see more people are on board for this!
