Started carrying a good camera with me while I fish. A few randoms from Friday. No secret spots were harmed while taking these pictures.

Was also down in the Pass yesterday and stopped at Lundbreck falls in the morning. Saw a couple guys rigging up across the river too.

BC, do you mind my asking what kind of camera you are using? Nice shots. Paul

I shoot Nikon full frame DSLR and Fuji mirrorless. The pictures in my first post in this thread are probably a mix of D600, D750, and D800. I'd say out of the three that the D750 is my favourite and the other two bodies will soon find their way to kijiji. In my post from earlier today the two pics of Lundbreck were shot on the D750 and the other three were on a Fuji X-T1. The Fuji kit is so lightweight while keeping incredible image quality that it's become my walkaround kit while I only shoot the D750 when I'm working out of the truck. If you're looking for a good camera kit, best thing to do is head over to the Camera Store and look around, tell them your price range and what types of things you'll be shooting and they'll point you in the right direction. I've always had awesome service from them and never got "upsold" to anything I didn't need.

 

Here's some other randoms from the past few months. Mix of Fuji and Nikon, but I'll bet you that unless I tell you which is which you can't tell the difference.

Nice captures sir, I'm like that one picture above the Elbow River devastation pic.

 

Looks like a spot you went to specifically to take pictures or were you fishing along the way? I'd love to see what it looks like up there duringa sunrise/sunset with a bit more dramatic light.

Random pictures from walking the banks over the past while. (all the flower pics are for bobloblaw)

 

Blossoms in the rain.

Something smells like wet dog.

Pretty sure that isn't from an axe or chainsaw...

Some more blossoms.

The fishing dog in his natural environment. Note how he stays back of the bank in the long grass to survey the water looking for rising trout.

Snake in the grass.

Yes, this was taken on the banks of the Bow today. Yes, I'm dusting off my fly box full of foam soon.

Good stuff, Marc!

Do trout eat hoppers? All this time I thought I was just using those big ol' foam abominations to hold my nymphs up off the bottom! ;)

They do not. You should just stick to a thingamabobber to keep your nymphs off the bottom and give all your hoppers to me so I can add them to my collection of unfishable flies...

That fly box could never sink

I use it as a PFD for myself.

 

Thats the best fly box of all time (SA right?). I have two of them, that one and the half size one. Water tight!

I think it's an SA or C&F (think SA distributed them for a while). I got that one from Simon Gawesworth a few years ago and it didn't have a logo on it, but it's identical to the C&F streamer boxes I have.
