Guys,

 

Too bad you missed it. That's the way the fish outta Cow Lake near Rocky looked like before somebody stocked perch.

 

18 lbs. fish for Alberta.

 

Was great.

Did anyone check out what this guy is really doing. Who cares about the big Rainbows, I want to do the 2 1/2 year trip he's doing.

 

If anyone is interested in giving him a day on the river check out this link. He will be through Alberta in Sept 2008.

I just watched a video of fly fishing at Tierra Del Fuego, in Argentina on the Rio Grande. Some 30-33 lbs are caught each year.

What's the title Playdoh? I'm looking to buy a few good fly fishing DVDs.

I think Max and Dave should take this guy for some monster Bulls

 

Alberta, British Columbia, Yukon Territory: September 2008

In the final stretch of the trip, but I’ll stop along the way at any river and creek that looks like it might hold fish.

"Trips to Jurassic Lake are only run as an add on program to either a weeks fishing for Sea-Trout at Las Buitreras or as a combination program with a week at Santa Cruz for Steelhead. The season we will also be running a full week package at Jurassic Lake in November and December."

 

Looks like a nice side trip

[maxwell]

amen too everything you typed in this whole freakin post chris...lmao....

[bigbowtrout]

Max you should fill in your info and send it to him. After seeing all of his pics and posts I think some large Alberta Bulls would go well with what he is doing. Plus the odd big cutty would not hurt either

[Guest bigbadbrent]

Out of nowhere, this suddenly became HUGE...It's also featured in one of the new mags..fish & fly or something

[maxwell]

o chris no worries brotha...sent it..then posted...will keep yall updated...

[126barnes]

One of the guys from the office just got back from the Land of Fire, best fish 26lbs sea trout (Rio Grande). Hes trying to convince me and my office mate that we should go, only 6000 US and thats just the fishing airfare on top of that.

Greetings Fly Fish Calgary Forum,

 

Hola from Rio Gallegos!

 

Thank you all kindly for the invitations to fish when I roll through your area. That should be around mid-July. Can´t remember if that is a good time or not. I would definitely be up for spending 7-10 days in the area and meeting the forum members. I assume everyone shares my ïnterest¨in sitting around the backyard with a nice BBQ and a healthy stock of beer?!?!?

 

Thank you also for the supportive commentary on my little adventure. I can tell you with complete understatement that it has been one hell of a journey. Can really put it into words.....although many have suggested that I try to write it all down after it is all done. I´ve fished with the best fishermen from all over the world, met extraordinary people, lost a fiancee, seen some wonderful places and now count dozens of people among my friends. Ít is often said....but it really doesn´t get any better than this.

 

More info on Jurassic Lake here (The preferred link) http://www.loopadventures.com/website2/sd_.../26/1/index.php

 

Anyway, thanks again and I´ll set aside the necessary time to spend in the Calgary area. Till then, good luck and fish on!

 

Buena suerte (good luck),

 

Dan

[maxwell]

great too here from ya, hope alls well...hell ur fishin anywere and everywere we all dream...shame about teh fiancee...make sure too give us a holler when ur on your way over here..lots of lips needing too be stretched...take care dude and ttyl

[DanTCook]

All,

 

I forgot to mention that everyone is invited to e-mail me with any questions regarding fishing destinations that I´ve visited along the way. There is a lot of stuff that I can´t put on the website updates for various reasons.......but suffice it to say that I´ve managed to fish just about all the places with the ¨do-it-yourself¨ methodolgy.

 

If this trip has proven anything enlightening, it is that just about anyone can show up somewhere and get access to fishing that would normally cost a few thousand clams. A person just has to be somewhat patient, optomistic and opportunistic. Oh.....and throw caution to the wind.

 

Thanks again for all the invitations to fish. I´ll be in touch with everyone as the time nears. In the meantime, I check e-mail pretty frequently so feel free to drop me a note.

 

Fish on,

 

Dan
