I got a few creeks on my hit list. Dutch creek, old man, livingston, clear water, highwood, and maybe the bow if i got time. Got a few spots around the shushwap i wana try too. Never chucked one fly last year, busted my right arm up good. Now im all better and ready to rock! But i can wait, its hard water season!

I plan to fish with my buddy, Taco, at least once this year.
We keep talking about it, but never actually get around to it.
2013 is the year, Dutchman!

Default waterton

I'll be headed east for Tigers again, going to drift the waterton and columbia and then it's back to the Bow, there's some browns that need catching
I drifted the waterton once a couple of years ago. We drifted from waterton resevoir to the highway 810 bridge. It's an extremely long float, but we fished water I am sure never gets fished and caught some beauty browns. Are you drifting down this low or hittin it higher up in the park?

Planning a week long hike for bullies and grayling with some friends. Been a while since we have all gotten together (life seems to happen all too often).

Cheers,

I am going to try and make it out your way to smash some of those brookies and take a chunk out of the population.

I have already been out flyfishing about 20 times since 2013.... Caught my first dry fly fish of the year about 2 weeks ago.. nice rainbow! Lots of plans in the works, looking forward to a continued summer of hardcore fishing.

My plan so far is to hit up some of the small creeks around me to try for some browns, then Ill probably be going to the small trout lakes for some fun with the brood trout in them.

Moving to Canmore in a week. Planning on exploring the park alot and seeing what i can find. Cant seem to find much information on the streams in the area. Doesnt seem like alot of people venture past canmore for fishing (except minnewanka) If anyone has some tips they would be appreciated!

Heading to Manitoba in May for the second time with some buddies. Going to try to beat my 11lb rainbow record and I figure out some of the big browns as well. Can't wait.

Cheers.

Started my season in Cuba, casting to 4' baracuda,20lb jack and huge yellow grouper. Looking forward to the Red Deer opener targeting browns and later on gold-eye. Fly-fishing the Kooteney River for large bulls is certainly on my wish list.

My friend and I have a guided trip planned in July down near Whitefish on the South Fork of the Flathead River. So excited! Lots of cutts down there! Anyone been down there before?

Unfortunately no... On my list though!

Hopefully you catch a bunch of yellowstone cutties!

I too have a few alpine trips planned. This is the year the golden trout gets crossed off of my bucket list. Other than that, spend time on my usual creeks and discover a few new ones.
