Thread: The joy of spring

    Default The joy of spring

    Well, it seems like spring is finally here in Alberta. Consistenly nice weather is forecast for a while, and the fish are responding well. It's so nice to look forward to the upcoming year of fishing!

    Here is a picture of my friends rainbow today, it was his personal best rainbow taping at 25 inches from the Bow river. I just thought I'd share his special moment with you all! Enjoy!

    Bowcrow ...nice fish .... I'm green with envy. Leave some there for the rest of us . I have kin in Calgary and hope to get over there this summer . I have many times driven pass the bow and never fished there . How dumb is that ? I used to live on the pembina right where it goes into the athabee . Good fishing there but we hardly ever fished . To busy farming .
    Don't count winter over yet , I'm in the Okanagan and we have had cold weather move in here all this week with tons of moisture . Rain , hail , and snow higher up . I am sending it your way . Ha Ha ....
    not to rain on your parade but to float your fishes all summer .
    For God's sake, Don't Quote me! I'm Probably making this crap up!

    Brian,

    Everytime you post I kick myself for leaving Alberta. One more year and I can go back...

    Don't plan on having nice weather for opening week in June. I'll be back visiting and beacause I'm bringing my rod I expect a late june blizzard on all the Eastern Slope waters... .

    Very nice fish!

    Thanks guys. He was a pretty happy guy. We went again today and it was really good again, though it got pretty cold and windy in the afternoon, so I am at home now at 3PM.

    I'll plan on taking the family for a vacation that week then Paul, thanks for the heads up!

    Frogpoop, if you e-mail me with your screen resolution I'll make you one full size if you'd like
