Howdy all,

So I will have to admit that I am really sad that I will not get a chance to fish on the wet coast for the salmon, but I have been surviving by flogging the "Mighty bow"   for some trout and white fish.

So I cut out of work 4 hours early to "work" from home and geared up for some nyphing the bow right in the middle of Calgary.  I got to my new favorite spot just after lunch. Oh by the way, it has been pretty sunny here for the last couple of days, with the occasional sprinkle at night.  Hows the weather been out there ?    Anyways, I was nymphing a san juan worm immitation for about an hour without much more than a couple of small fish.  So I was about to call it a day but I switched to a brown prince nymph, and that made such a hugh difference.  within 4 casts, I had 3 fish!  This river is so weird.  It almost seems like there are no fish at times, then wam! you cant keep them off.  Anyways, the most notable fish were a 2-3 # whitefish, and a large rainbow that came off just before I landed it.  I need to get a net I think.

One last note.  The white fish here are actually ugly compared to the ones that I have caught in the vedder.  Much darker, kind of a muddy yellow colour. and the Rainbows are different looking to.  I should get a digital camera one of these days.

Cheers from sunny calgary.
