Looking for a Fly Fishing Partner Thread...etc
I know its way too early I'm thinking we should have a sticky in the sub-category. As most people know fly fishing partners are a bit tougher to find and some fly fisherman can be more selective.
What do you all think? |
Sounds good to me, im returning fly fishing from a 5 year hiatus and I don't have any friends in the Edmonton area who fly fish. Been fly fishing for most of my life, and i really need a partner willing to do the odd boot out to the mountains and such.
|
I'd be up for it too.
I'm new to these shores and don't know anyone who fishes, yet. I enjoyed exploring last year but it would be great to discover new places and go with someone like minded. |

I'll be looking for fly fishing company as well. Been fly fishing my whole life. Just moved to Edmonton. Mostly Atlantic Salmon and Trout experience for me. I tie pretty good fly as well so if I can line up a partner or two I could supply a few patterns for a trip.

A partner for fly fishing would be good
I am more than avid boat fisher in Southern Ab.
When I moved here 20 yrs. ago I was wired for the bow Then I discovered winter bow fishing . Had a couple of Self induced accidents , bad granite cut climbing the bank And got taken out by a floating ice block cause I waded too deep. Haven't been too avid last couple of years ,but now I am totally Retired so could go anytime .... Have caught some nice trout But always willin to learn ( my wife says I have to put in that's Only in fishing the learning ) if you are avid and don't know nothing That's ok too ... |
The leduc pond ,Trout here?
Are there any trout in the Leduc Pond ,thought I might cast a fly in there some time
|
they put a few trout in the leduc res every may but the fishing in there has never been worth the time !
|
I've never caught anything in the reservoir either.
Might try again this year for the heck of it. |
anyone plan on going fishing in the next couple days? i'm looking for someone to tag along with, will travel 2,3 hours if necessary
|
Hitting the bow on tue
Leaving leduc at sun up if anyone wants to tagg along I can pick up anywhere along the way |
I would like to fish the crow and area this year, And would like a partner due to the remote locations i.e: castle river I dont mind trecking in for a while to get a good spot have a 4x4 and all the gear feel free to pm me I live in calgary and dont mind picking someone up
|

I would join you but I have that pesky work thing to do! |
Yep fished it prob a doz times since the start of the year
Been fishing good Wed looks nice supposed to be +11 to 14 If anyone wants to join let me know |
Anyone interested in fishing the Bow River this upcoming weekend? I'm a newbie and want to go with someone that can show me the ropes. I have taken a "boot camp" and have all the gear that I know of that I need. Now I just need to watch and learn from someone. I'm a quick learner. Been out a few times, I'm strictly a catch and release fisherman. I use the term "catch" loosely as I have never caught a fish on my fly rod or out of the Bow.
