First pike on the fly!
 

I went to Coal lake spill way last night and caught my first pike with my fly rod! Yes, I know he is very little but it was still good to get one landed :) Hopefully the first of many to come!

It's a blast catching them with the fly rod. :) Now you have to feed the addiction.

Atta boy! I LOVE pike on the fly once you get into the bigger boys you'll even a better time :)

:sHa_shakeshout:

what were you using for a fly? Dry, nyph, streamer? If sub surface what depth? Thanks!

Ya pike on a fly is a blast,got into fly fishing six years ago and never looked back but never for pike Finaly went out and got myself a new 8wt sage and Amundsen reel rio pike fly line and out to Battle lake. Landed 8 pike all between 57and 61cm now am addicted so planning a camping trip at battle this weekend. There bound to get bigger lol

I was using a red and white streamer about 8 inches below the surface. The creek is only about 15 feet across and two or three feet deep so it was basically sight fishing which was cool :) I am actually going down to Okotoks this weekend to see my girlfriend, any places you would have in mind where I could fly fish and she could hardware fish? Besides the sheep, she already said no to river fishing :( haha

Congrats!

Read the regs, most rivers dont open till the 16 of june
Just a friendly heads up

Thanks for that, but it is considered part of coal lake not a river :)

Good job! You'll remember that one for years to come.

Nice!Pike on the fly are a blast regardless of size
