not like 45+ inches no, but average is around 30.

i'm still fiddling with the drag system. never had a reel with an actual drag before. but soooo smooooth. i love my new rod. the reel will fit under my pillow. i could sleep with my new reel tonight.

here is the thread. http://flyfishcalgary.com/board/index.php?...ic=1923&hl= if alberta's trout highway isnt on the list somewhere, it should be. there is also a number of excellent tying books listed in the fly tying forum

anyone for pike at chestermere. dont laugh it's fun in a pontoon or belly boat, float tube. as soon as break up starts and the ice clears, give it a few nice days and the beginning of May is golden

anything in particular? how tos on tying, how to read streams, basics of casting, spey stuff? i have a shelf full of stuff, more like back seat of my truck full of books. but with so many to chose from, give me some ideas and i can narrow it down.

not even cheap women... i have a 5/6, now lined only as a 6. just got my new orvis 5 and new reel - thx brent. and OMG, it casts amazing. makes me look GOOD! i love my new rod, want to go to sleep with it. unfortunately the cold metal case it came in is not so comfy under the pillow. but i do pet it every night before i go to bed. i love my new rod. i think i need another so it isnt lonely

here you go. syncline is located on hwy 774 outside of beaver mines (hwy 507 south of #3) westish, on the way to castle mountain rivers in the area south of the crow... north and south lost, suicide, carbondale, lynx, west castle, castle, south castle, north and south york, gardner stretching over 3 valleys but all connected through the back roads (carbondale hall road or river road, the adanak and the lynx road) from 774 and 507 to blairmore. for stillwaters there is beaver mines lake, lees lake and burmis lake. plus barnaby/southfork all the water is within 30min drive of the campground. castle, south and west castle are within 5 min. my fav is about a 20 min drive, depending on bovine traffic. try the link, not sure if it will work, hybrid map and satelite still. if it does, anything that looks like water in those valleys is what i'm talking about http://ca.maps.yahoo.com/#mvt=h&trf=0&...50272&mag=7

Amen to that brutha

i already did in the other thread. i'll go find it and copy/paste. i just gave Al a little more specific info on the water and location that's all

thanks clive, thems ugly bugs

will pm you AL

got mine at walmart

ya gotta link or something, never tied one. sorry, didnt get in on the terrestrials.

looks like fly tie tuesdays may be fairly interesting, tying or not

i'd like to do that area in august, rock. sounds pretty cool

not much for C&R are they. lol

2 lines in hard water and you have to be within 30ft of them or something like that

...so you can make some money j/k the more peopel i talk to about fishing and FFC, the more people i find at least passively stop by to read and learn. it is interesting to find out that there seems to be a direct impact on the spey infussion from the forum

i'm too cheap to buy new waders again this year. especially since i only wear them in the winter and really cold spring days or in the float tube. maybe i will just stop eating and hope the thighs fit a little better so it doesnt look like i'm a wearing spandex body suit damn that's sexy

LOL LMFAO, i was thinking someone should start this... BAAHAAHAAA HAA HA HA!!!!!!!!!! Dave keeps facebooking my mom too.

i gave up on school long ago, but i was wondering how that paper was coming along. did any of those links help you? if they did you still owe me a fishing day

anyone Rock. we be having a beeeegggg parteee again syncline for me. hey we could take section B and crash the wedding reception LOL. sorry, DBT. i'm sure that's just what your bride wants, a bunch of drunken fishermen stumbling around.

it makes anglers feel better to say hard water, because it still makes it sound like water and not ice, but we really know that it is ice. sshhh, dont tell the anglers. we dont want to upset them

BAHH HAAHAHAAHAAA HAAAHHAAAAHAHA HA!!!!!!

fortunately 1 video was erased, me the BF were having an apparently not so private moment when the night vision video camera came out. i was told all you could see was part of my butt in very very fuzzy out of focus (drunk operator) green haze. the other video i havent seen. and that was dancing around the campfire sans chemis. the guys didnt know until after the camera man clued in and panned to me. guess you could say i'm not so modest or shy. besides, the guys i camp with have known me for many, many moons. they know i'm just one of the guys. and we're just having some fun. howling at me. you havent met me yet. i could look broome hilde all warty and haggard, saggy and such
