Dangus

Other than being local, do they have any other beneficial traits?

That fancy new gif vid thing at the start makes it rather cumbersome to login on a phone too

No doubt

Hey all, with the cold weather (and even sun gloves imo) please consider taking them off before handling fish. Quite frankly, I don’t know why You wouldn’t want to keep your gloves dry, but seems Iike quite a few like to leave them on. Only Takes a second to rip them off with your teeth and throw them at the bank or stuff down the front of your waders. Cheers bron

Walk three blocks north and go fishing

So what’s going on again with this road?

Sweet. Just in time for fall sales. Did you find out what he got slapped with?

Probably fine. Saw a pair of guys in a 10 foot tinny today. Went down shallow riffles into a run sideways...standing up inside the boat. Absolutely clueless. Was hoping for a good Vid but they pulled it out!

anything within city limits is out of bounds. 26 That part of the Bow River commencing at the west boundary of Section 5, Township 25, Range 2, west of the 5th Meridian and continuing downstream to the point where it exits the City of Calgary at the south boundary of Section 20, Township 22, Range 29, west of the 4th Meridian Bow River

Been meaning to swing a few this year but never got around to it. Hopefully this fall. Dont know much about them. Was just planning on sending them down and across on the trout spey

Echo what scel said. Especially in cold water when your hands become useless bats. Really tough taking small flies out that still have their barbs.

I’ve never had any twist to the point where I’d be annoyed enough to wonder if there was a fix for it or if I was just doing something wrong....

Sorry for late reply. I have open country at2 “ extreme” (insert eye roll on the name). But they’ve been great. Mileage dropped about 1 l/100 compared to the stock tissue paper tires despite being pretty wide too. Can’t recall if they’re 305 or 315. Got about 70k km on them and they’re about 30 percent ish. Noise is not bad. I’d buy them again I think

Snagged a nice spinning set up last summer.

Has anyone found Arrow heads or such while walking along the bow from the city to carseland? Ive put a lot of miles on various streams and I always keep my head down, but I’ve never found anything cool.

Cost is probably 2 dollars out of china ha

If a guy is geared up with a couple thousand dollars of gear...pretty safe bet. Probably look a little closer if you haven’t taken the plastic off the foam handle of your Shakespeare extra heavy spinning rod.

Ya I’ve been given *hit for that too. They said it’s cause they can’t scan it. I made a PDF and signed it digitally, and they can scan it from their phone. I tested it out with one of them.

Last week, Saw some guys that looked like they bonked one at bankside. Called it in, get a call back from a guy in cochrane and that he can’t get a hold of the guy around fish creek. So, the guys went home and a had a fish fry. month or so back was below the dam on the elbow with the dog, saw some skids rigging bait (and pink Powerbait nuggs Floated by) called it in. Officer didn’t even know the access to get down to the base of the dam. Made me wonder how so few officers Don’t know about popular access points. Especially since I’ve personally called in two poaching events at that spot this spring and summer. not blaming them, but still frustrating.

Good job. Pretty frustrating...but youll feel a little better knowing he got caught and you can buy something purdy with the cash.

the “20 inch rainbow” story reminds me a little of the “hey we got lots of snow and it was cold” story as it relates to global warming. Don’t get mad at me. Just something I came across. I too, wondered how much those things have to eat to maintain that mass. Further reading reveals that the pelican populations were crushed and they are finally starting to rebound. May account for your 70’s observations. I did notice that the power lines flossed a few around mac last year. So the bow has that going for it. Ha

Just a tidbit I came across... “Pelicans feed on a wide range of fish and aquatic animals; sticklebacks, perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, salamanders, frogs, and aquatic invertebrates are the usual fare. Contrary to popular belief, pelicans do not consume large quantities of game fish.”

Apparently, They were documented in Alberta in the late 1700’s. Gonna go out on a limb here and say that they’ve been on the bow for longer. That being said, it may have become more popular for them as the fishery blew up after the sewage injections.
