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.

This is the quintessential good cop/bad cop routine.

Well timed, flawlessly executed, a true delight.

Yeah, thank you too, I guess, but now you've gone and run him off
already. We'll never see hide nor hair of Gord ever again.

You're quick, lethal and merciful, roff's best bouncer by far, but
as for me, I like to play with them for a little while before I run
them off.

Spoilsport. When do I get to be bouncer again ? ;-)

Oops. Sorry.

If we get to fish together, you can shove me underwater, prevent my
lovely new inflatable vest from working, pile rocks on top of me, and
take over from there. Or you can just ask.

But I'll rise from a watery grave or post at will at them when they
whine. I hate whining SPAMmers.

Often taunted by trout.
Only a fool would refuse to believe in luck. Only a damn fool would rely on it.

We should have a SE Minnesota mini-Clave. I fished in Whitewater
State Park years ago, caught some fish while wet wading and had a
nice enough day astream but when I got back to my campsite I found
a sweet 16 complement of leeches on my legs. What a bloody mess
THAT was. Kinda put me off SE Minnesota, if you know what I mean.

I do have waders, even though I hardly ever use them, so it's
high time I gave SE Minnesota another shot, especially if you're
willing to be mini-Clavemeister.

You go, girl.

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,
