May was great a month for fly fishing the lakes around Merritt, BC. Prime time for chironomids. Got my grandson and a friend who is new to fishing into personal bests.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize that.

Wishing you and yours a safe and Merry Christmas.

dang...you're my kind of girl!!! :lol:

I'll stick with the Thills for the shallows and the Quick Release Indicators for the depths. I do a lot of chironomid fishing in the lakes.

all fish on my site were caught on the fly...hence, no sturgeon pics. :)

:lol: No...not me!! Good one!
Check out my signature, when you have a second.

The Vedder/Chilliwack River system is about an hour out of Vancouver, and is the most productive (and popular)winter steelhead river in the area. Late April is prime for flyfishing this system, and...
