  1. There is actually a special license that allows you to do this on Quirk Creek and various other bodies of water, you must however pass a test as you mentioned above which is available at Trout Unlimited in Calgary and record details about your catches. Im not 100% sure on all the details but there is such a system in place.
  2. Yep, and just a FYI that is a Brookie and not a shark Just a quick note about my guiding experience up at Fortress for anyone who is interested. The facilities and food are amazing, a diamond in the rough in the middle of absolute no where. Quite a spectacular feeling being the only boat at times on such a large lake with such amazing fish, quite a rarity in todays worlds. In regards to the fishing, it is second to none. Having hosted clients who have fished at other trophy brook trout lodges, the consistency, quality, and all around experience it offers to guests far exceeds those offered by any other lodge. It may not have the history of the east coast lodges in NFL, Northern Ontario, Labrador, or Quebec but the scenery more then makes up for it. Mark my words, that I know there are likely some world records swimming around in that lake and that one day it will be broken. This fish was my best go at it, all thou im sure i fell short by 5-6pounds, 14-15pounds is a big fish lol. Only wishing i had a scale as i might qualified for a IGFA line weight record . Anyways thats all i will say about Fortress, Id like to post more pictures but im having issues in regards to that. Dustin
  3. Always looking at the negatives. Ive seen many shows that show great handling of fish and proper techniques, why not point these shows out? why is it that everyone on this board must point fingers and look at negatives. For once id like to see, did you see so and so's picture or movie! what great release technique ect... *hit happens sometimes, im sure weve all dropped a fish on the rocks by accident at one point, or even dropped it in shallow water without a proper release... screw it, we should all just quit fishing all together, at the end of the day you are sticking a sharp object in the mouth, or in the throat of an animal, taking it out of its natural environment in order to save/attempt to save its life, and then releasing it back into the wild. As a result of this things will happen, and everyone will do it differently. Get over it
  4. Green would be a horrible choice for D, sure he has high points but look who is on forwards? i dont think we need any help getting points, plus green has shown time and time again he will go for the chance at a point rather then make good defensive decision. Id much rather have a stronger Defensive player anyday then a point getter, that being said i am an Oiler fan and was surprised Bouwmeester wasnt selected.... I dont think the team is great, but it could have been far worse. Im sure they will do fine, Canada has alot riding on this and it would be a pretty big joke on the world scale if the fail to preform in hockey... Lets hope Dustin
  5. Talk to Bryce, he is a very recognized a decorated snowboarder around the Alberta/BC area and is sponsored by Ride and some other companys as well as a hell of a fly fisher. He works at the Source down south, send him a message on here and ill give him a heads up so he checks for it.
  6. If you havnt seen the video, its got amazing videography but hardly any real fishing and the fishing that is done is mostly for rainbows. However as a fan of planet earth by BBC i really loved the video and thought it was a good buy. For anyone who doesnt know its called "Once in a Blue Moon"
  7. buying any type of shares or stock is gambling. Only sure thing is government bonds and treasury bills. Everything else has risk, and in return is a form of gambling.
  8. been in the news for years and years, as much as i can remember there is a high electric current stoping them from getting into the great lakes and thus canada so lets hope that stays working. Beyond that i also think there are some ponds in Alberta that actually have them but the are there to keep them clean and are 100% infertile. Could be wrong thou
  9. Correct me if i am wrong, is it not TU's responsibility to conserve, protect, and rehabilitate our streams and fresh water ecosystems? not destroy an area so you can have easy access to a river? be glad that you are even permitted to take in and put in at the location. Wait TU is a non profit, but according to Dej1 they should spend all of their funds to pave this area and make it a nice easy spot for him to put in. Sorry if this is your 2nd post and im coming off as rude but grow up man. Not a way to enter a community
  10. i see youve been to jurassic lake, isnt one trip of a lifetime per lifetime good enough? why not let someone else go
  11. on a big tricked out Ford F350 all done up nice driven by a bunch of indians seen at about 3am in the morning "Get to Work Whitey, This Truck Aint paid for Yet" and a big decal in the back window that said CHUG LIFE... oh im not racists either, i was howling when i read this
  12. You know what they say about fishermen with small nets baahahhahaa or is it.... nevermind
  13. When i was little i used to tie on panther martens onto a fly rod and catch fish that way because i thought it was funner, but then again i used to stick keys in light sockets because it was a good hiding place....

  15. FYI Rick, some people dont know how to read. Take me for example, i have no clue how to read and as a result i rely on other people to tell me what is in the regs. So in this case is it their fault that i dont know what sections are closed? what if i really want to fish, but my friend who will remain nameless who can read isnt home, so i decide to go anyways? am i a bad person for this? food for thought man! food for thought Dustin
