Tako Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Finally got a buttload of pics off my camera and onto my laptop. I don't know what all I posted before but here is a bunch from this year so far. Thanks to JMasson for showing me a sweet hole on the Lil Smoky! You rock dude! Anyone swinging through the north country, shout at me, Peace River is a lonely place for a fly fisherman. Everyone here wants to hump those ugly walleye all day :? Arriving in Alberta I am greeted by my boss who says "Let's go to Sulphur" Next up was Figure 8, which I have learned quickly. I hate going there because it's always packed. But those damn browns have me in their grasp. I gotta get one. And I will. Here's a typical assortment of rainbows. Almost all in the 1.5-2lb range, with the odd older fish pushing the 3lb mark. Kicking right in there at 14-17" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Next up was East Dollar Lake, which I have a love-hate relationship with. The fish are big and TOUGH, the mosquitoes are brutal, the lake is scummy and the browns are glued to the shoreline. I've hooked a couple gooders, but nothing monster to the tube yet. Brown time Nothin but big fat healthy tough scrapping bows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 After a few rounds of the local lakes, it was time to hit the Little Smoky. JMasson and I took a chance and talked ourselves into hitting it this past saturday. After heading into an unproductive spot, I hooked a big bull and JM landed one grayling, he had to head home and I tried out a different area he figured there would be fish. You were right dude! Wahoo! Good mornin on the Bigstone JM chuckin flies Finally gets one (lots and lots of swearing up to this point) A promising find YEEEAAAHOOOOO I think they heard me in Fox Creek when I stuck this old warrior with a #16 stone A few more to round off the trip and I was headin home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 And then there was Weberville. What a place to practice your fish photography, lol. CPUE on a good day is about 15-20 fish per hour. Here's the best of the lot from my many afternoons at the trout pond Exiting stage left... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMasson Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 No problem, boss! Was a good day, even if we only got one fish. Went to that hole downstream of the bridge? Nice spot, eh?! August 21 on the Blackstone...I'm pretty sure I could get down there for that. Hit the Wapiabi one day too. My mom's visiting from Florida then but I'm sure I could swing a couple days for fishing.
