    I recently came across this video, and got interested in fly fishing the mouth of the Adams with an egg pattern for rainbows. I am wondering though, when using egg patterns, if you should use an indicator on a 9ft leader and floating line or use it without an indicator. It would also be...

    Sport fishing column for August 30 to Sept 6, 2010 For everything there is a season, a time to be quiet and a time to speak. The last warm days of summer are heralded in farming communities as the time of the harvest. Here in British Columbia the harvest many look forward to is not a...

    Sport fishing column for August 23 to 30, 2010 One of my favorite fish to pursue is the desert trout. Though not prolific in numbers, like the rainbows in our high catch lakes, I find these fish to be well worth the time and study it takes to master them. This particular strain of...

    Sport fishing column for August 16 to 23, 2010 Some weeks ago I took my wife and daughter back to a lake in the Cariboo that we had not fished in ten years. After finding the fish (credit goes to my wife Kim for spotting the Damsel flies climbing up the bulrush stems), we were quickly...

    Sport fishing column for August 9 to 16, 2010 With another drowning in the Vedder River this past week, I feel some safe wading tips are in order. Neoprene waders fill with water and all others fill with air, when an angler takes a tumble. This makes regaining stability difficult...

    Sport fishing column for August 2 to 9, 2010 I am back from my short vacation, with some lessons learned. Safety is #1. While some of us teach water safety, general safety is often taken for granted. My lesson was administered as it often is, through experience when I slipped on a wet step...

    Sport fishing column for July 12 to 19, 2010 Last week I suggested that fish can be good teachers and this week I wish to expand on that statement. I know I may have ruffled a few feathers amongst my readership and some may think it blasphemes, but do fish Black Crappie quite often during...

    Nicola Valley Outdoors Fishing Report for July 13 2010 Pike Mountain lakes have been steady. The dry fly activity in the evening with caddis dry flies has been good. Tom Thumbs have been good producers as well as Tri-wing sedges. It was a little better before the cold front moved in...

    I was recently fishing Big Lake off the Likely road with my Dad and son. There was a small boat working the shoreline quite quickly and I joked that it looked like a couple americans fishing for bass. Well i ran into these folks at the boat launch later and it turns out that is exactly what they...
