First generation mum and dad immigrated in '62 love to go back and fish for salmon there...

Two years ago today was the last time I was back, I think I'm due another visit.

Maybe if you are lucky you could get a Gillie to take you out on the water.... mind and sample the whisky.

The water of life... dangerous stuff. What's a gillie - a type guide or steward?

That's a pig of a hen man! Good on ya!

Gotta go buy a bottle of champagne to smash over my new rod and reel, absolutely nothing wrong with my old setup but hey... Why not spend some cash on a new pin?!?!

Tis' the season for steel, cold hands, snow, rain, and wind.

Took a buddy of mine to a given pool today, and he still didn't hook up, myself. Well... I did pretty good />

At first, I was skeptical about my new rod, 15'6" and nearly twice the weight as my 13', and after losing the first three fish I hooked onto, I was even more sketchy... But...
Fourth fish landed... I was lovin' every foot of it.

6/11 after all was said and done, off the river and having lunch by 12:00, I was really looking forward to staying all day but when your pal is soking wet and freezing cold, ya gotta help him out. Bro's before......... Chrome?






That hen was a lot bigger then she looks, I wish I would of got a better pic, it's tail was as wide as my hand from my fingers to my wrist.





I'm going to end up sending that pic into the MNR, he had some weird things going on, i would love to know if any of you guys have seen anything like that, it was like some of his scales were scarred over and lifted up... It's hard to explain but it looked parasitic or fungal...
But he fought like a pissed off mule, so I assumed he was healthy

Sweet fish man!

Can't believe you guys are all still catching steelhead with pins and fly rods......I'm stuck on the hardwater. Hahaha...

Here's a 20" rainbow with beautiful colors. We hit the ice on Sunday and caught 5 fish but nothing broke the 20" mark. Still a great day on the water.

Not fishing, but a few shots from Whistler British Colombia. A couple people on here asked me to share some pics so here they are .

Just finished our first day of riding and we were blessed with fresh powder that started falling over night. Visibility was horrible in the morning though, at one point we got stuck on a run due to the fact that we couldn't see infront of us. Ended up walking that one for a bit lol.

[Majstor]
