British Columbia fly-fishing literature

Jeff West Coast Fisherman is another book put together by some BC
Jeff boys. but I haven't read it.

Ahh, I first thought that it was a magazine, but I found it:

Seems to be highly recommended, thanks. And I see that Barnes and
Noble has both books, this one and also 'The Gilly' (although 'The
Gilly' only as used).

Thanks, keep them coming!

there is a magazine called West Coast Fly Fishing that one I'm pretty
sure is put out by the same group as the book. Northwest Fly Fishing is an
magazine and it covers Alberta northwest USA and British Columbia. It always
seems to have some great articles about fishing in some of BC's Rivers.

Now my 2 cents.
A few places that are worth seeing. and some time lines on a few rivers,
I was going to give you the whole tour but realized quickly I would
probably be writing a book. The most amazing place to fish for scenery, fish
and adventure has to be Terrace in the Fall. The mushroom pickers are all
over the side of the road and this is something to see but the fishing is
usually pretty amazing. The Skeena is a good river but I like the Nass
because there isn't so many people. There are lots of Bears including
Grizzlies up there that time of year so be careful. They won't usually
bother you as long as you follow the rules. If they want it.. give it to
them and if you **** Bury it deep. (I am seriously not lying about the last
one and there is a story to go along with it but that for another time)
There is also 2 glaciers up there you can walk on and the Southern tip of
Alaska is right there. Hyder is worth seeing up there to.
Spring In Vander Hoof is sick with fish. Around the Kenny Dam area there
is so many lakes and creeks that 4 pound fish is the norm. And I had an
experience there where every single cast was a fish. It was gross cause they
where all big and didn't seem to care what I was using or where.I seriously
got bored from catching to much fish. It is possible.
Anyway good look and I'll look through my book collection to see if I can
find or think of any more. BC is seriously one of the most amazing places in
the world. Have a great trip,

Hey Ken everyone except you mentions how good the Skeena and it trib's
are...I wasn't friggin advertizing I was just trying to shorten the man's
time searching for a great place to fish...people like you Ken give me a
pain in the ass....peace gord p

You're a goddamn liar, Gord. An opportunistic, lying piece of ****.
And I am proud to be a pain in your lying ass. Now, you can kiss mine.

since Gord simply has a link to a commercial web site as a sig - as do some
other regular posters I can't see what's the problem.

No, he didn't. It was in the body of his message. He had _no_ sig
file.

The problem is that Gord used a request for literature as an excuse
to post a commercial for his business. One would think that a British
Columbia outfitter would be able to recommend at least one or two books
about fishing in British Columbia to a guy from Finland who wanted to
spend the winter planning a trip, but Gord chose to post nothing but a
self-serving commercial. A commercial that was, at best, misleading.

Gord's commercial was mildy, VERY mildly, rebuked and so he came back to
roff to lie and whine about it. The lying and whining is despicable and
offensive, and that too, is the problem.

so is this a sig or did I enter it like you said Gord did?

Not quite. It's in the right direction, but it should be an empty
space line or two below your post. Then you put in two dashes (not
underscores) and a space and another empty space line. Then your sig.
You can find out why about the two dashes and a space some other time,
just be sure they're there. And it still helps to put in the http://
before the www. Some people have old programs or programs that just
don't add the http:// automagically. (the sned below is intentional,
btw. Assume it's just because I'm a little eccentric.).

So if it were my sig, I'd be doing:

--
http://www.snedmeyourmoney.com
And then I'd add my name or one or two lines about my business. Not
more than 4 lines total. 5 won't get you flamed, but more will have
people just looking at an enormous sig and sighing or screaming. As
mine is a vanity page, I just put something I think it interesting or
clever below it. (Oops. 5 lines. Oh, well).

Not true. The entire site is advertising for one company. The
'information' page is for the customer to sign up for the services.
The 'environment' page seems to be all about how you can transport
people doing studies from all I could stand to read of it.

time searching for a great place to fish...

Yep. YOUR place. Your profit.

Yes, Ken, among other traits that we may or may not enjoy, loves being
a pain in every orifice to SPAMmers. May his cattle prod always have
electricity to spare.

Thank you, Ken.

peace gord p

You keep your peace and we'll be quiet, too. He nailed you fair and
square. Whining just irritates some of the rest of us who'd have
otherwise kept quiet.
