Question:

That fish pictuer is great Huggy Bear thanks alot.    I kept lookin in that windows help place an the missus helped an I figgered out how to do signatures.   It wasnt easy an it didnt work at first neither.  I hadda put everything in that notepad there an then saved it to the hard thing an then we hadda tell the computar to use the stuff we saved.   The pictuer looks better when we look at it with note pad.  It looks kinda crunched with this Out Look here.  Lemme know if it looks ok I dont know what the problem is.

Yep, it looks just like it should.  The problem you might be having is using a proportional (like a book), instead of a fixed-width (like a typewriter) font.  In Outlook Express, go to the Tools menu, select Options and click on the tab marked Read.  Then click on the button marked Fonts and select Courier New as your fixed width font.  You might want to set it as your proportional width font as well.  I don’t use OE myself, but that should do you OK. An like Bulb an some of them other meowers was sayin I should do I added some stuff after the pictuer.   Its some old stuff from a couple years ago when I first tangled with them Coleman guacamoles.  Im gonna keep addin stuff as I get enuff time.  I been so busy Im lucky I got this done. I wanna end up with everybody that sees my stuff understandin that theres a buncha bums and punks out there an everything to do with nature is goin down the crapper an nobody gives a rats ass neither an everybody thinks censerin is good.

Damn straight.  I’m a city-lovin’ boy myself, but I’ve got no more time for censors than you have. Anyways lemme know if it looks ok Hey I forgot to ask I seen replys to me by that Millenanal Catastrophy there.   Is he the same as Medical Catastrophy or are they related somehow?

The story I heard was that Medcat was killed in a freak crossposting accident and Milcat is his evil twin. Thanks again Huggy Bear that great! Tony G.

Question:

I am thinking of a weeks fishing in the Fernie area some time between July 15 and August 15.  In terms of dry fly fishing, what is the best time to go? What bugs?  Will snow pack be an issue in terms of timing? JK

Response:

From my limited experience (one trip), the  later in your time period, the better for dry fly fishing. Plat

Response:

your timing looks good for a steady diet of dryfly action. patterns to bring:

gr drakes #12,14. stimulators orange, yellow large. rubber leg stones. hoppers later in Aug. if you require guide service click to www.bcangling.com best rates garaunteed. if you come in July, there are some trophy Rainbow lakes not too far away and the sedge hatch may still be happening. tls, pk.

John: I don’t have my information here in front of me, but one place you might want to try is the Blackfoot River above Blackfoot Reservoir.  If you do a little checking, you’ll find that the Nature Conservancy and the State of Idaho have purchased a large piece of land surrounding the river and are in the process of restoring the cutthroat fishery there.  Based on pictures I’ve seen, it looks like classic meadow fishing and supposedly there is starting to be some very good fishing. There is also a rod-fee fishery on the Blackfoot Indian Reservation in the something-or-other Springs close to the Snake River near the town of Blackfoot. There is an Idaho Flyfishing book that I’ll look up when I get home.  It has quite a few suggestions for SE Idaho fishing. Bob

No fishing there. Nope. None.  Don’t bother to bring waders. For some reason Idaho Fish and Game close the river in town to fishing.  Afraid people would hook a swimmer or something. As for fishing ousid of Lava Hotsprings.  Just drive around until you find a stream.   An Idaho Topo Atlas by Delorme is worth the $15 investment even if you are only going to use it that week. Carl

Question:

For those that have written the group and me personally asking about water conditions I send this updated report (by the way, I don’t mind in the least getting the queries). Got three trout today with a completely new method of dry fly fishing. There I was standing  (or at least trying to) in four feet of water on a sand bar that, to my certain knowledge, has been dry, year round, for at least the last six years. The creek is small but at times has produced the occasional 18 inch brown some smaller rainbows and the occasional cut throat or two. This new method consists of casting a dry up stream. letting it hit the water and race back towards you in the current. The three fish I caught had broken their necks trying to get the fly as it went past them at somewhere around forty five mph. Their bodies were then recovered some one and a half miles down stream by an accomplice. Lolo Mt.

Question:

We are planning a trip to Nova Scotia Aug. 17-25th.  We will be concentrating our time in the Guysbourough (sp?) area and heading over to Prince Edward Island for a few days.  We already have the stream map of NOva Scotia…are there any streams/rivers in the areas we’ll be traveling in that offer good fishing without guides?  WE are not interested in fishing solely for salmon but would like to fish for brook trout.  In addition, what are some good fly patterns to bring along. Finally, if anyone can recommend a lodge/bed and breakfast in the areawe would appreciate knowing about it.  Thank you in advance for any information.  Carolyn Mahan and Kurt Engstrom

There are several interesting rivers in that area. the most notable is probably Salmon River just outside of town (Guysbourough) You will find Brown / Speckled trout and Atlantic Salmon there There is also the Country Harbour River nearby but you may be a bit late for it, however if things are slow……. You will also find on your map that you are not far from the St. Mary’s River one of the best salmon rivers in the province and worth a look over even if it is close to the season’s end by the time you are going to be in the area. I haven’t stayed in that area for many years and therfore cannot recommend a place to stay but the Dept of Tourism puts out a book called Where to Stay in Nova Scotia that will give lots of info. They will send you one for the asking                                 Hope you enjoy your trip                                         Geoff  _  / __  __  __/   _  / / /__  /_    __  /_      / /_/ /  _  /___   / /_/ / _  __/    _  __/      ____/   /_____/   ____/  /_/       /_/        http://highlander.cbnet.ns.ca/ Cape Breton Community Network Check it out !!

I received a catalog in the mail from Angler’s Covey today…(since I’m VERY new to FFing, I’m not able to evaluate it…) The humorous part of it is, they had a note attached that said something to the effect of "Due to the overwhelming response for our 1995 catalog, we can only supply you with a prior year catalog…call for updated prices." It was a 1993 catalog…I wonder if the info on this group had anything to do with it?  :) Fish on!, JC Angler’s Covey, Inc. 917 W.
