RedBeard Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Experienced a highly variable day on the Bow with vhawk today. The fish were on and the weather was off and on. Just wanted to share the day.. It started out as a bit gusty but above zero & sunny at our cars. The wind really picked up at almost the exact moment we got to the spot and unhooked, which made things fairly difficult. Hooked into a few fish while the sun was shining.. She splashed the lens.. Fat brown The action slowed quite a bit so we walked down stream to try and find the next hole.. Got word that a pretty hefty storm was rolling through North Calgary, and it appeared to be coming our way. Within minutes it hit us hard! Blizzard blast!! haha. Between gusts we chucked out the gear, vhawk was bested by a hog that he could hardly budge after hooking up. Unfortunately, It ended up as the one that got away, and bent the hook in the process. Had a minute to grab this picture as we waited for the wind to die down after the storm. We finished the day at just below zero degrees, no wind, and sunshine. Landed two more rainbows before packing it in. Despite the weather, we had an awesome time out today! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
