I had a lot of family and friends asking me where my videos of underwater perch action were and how they could watch them. When I couldn't find them without logging into my account I contacted WFN via email and wrote that it would be great to be able to search fellow Ambassadors by name. I was informed that it was a great idea and that it would get mentioned to the higher ups.
What a weekend it was. To some Labour Day weekend is the last time out to the cottage and time to bring in the dock and lock up the cabin for the winter. Not for this avid fisherman. Last year my last day on the water was November 4th. We had to carry the boat in to the lake because the ice was too thick at the boat launch. Then on the 28th I walked on that same trout pond and caught my first
I can't say that I have a favourite fishing spot. I love to fish, that's all. Anywhere the fish are biting and I'm in good company, which sometimes is also by myself. I have fished in many new lakes and some rivers this fishing season and some where more successful than others. I tried out Fawcett Lake, Pyramid Lake, Maligne Lake, Miette River, Touchwood Lake, Mayatan Lake, Star Lake,

I was loading up the boat for a 5 day trip to Jasper National Park. There are specific rules in the park that are different from the provincial rules in Alberta. I have read some of the online regs and have started to do some changes to my packing. First off is I need a National Parks License. I will be fishing with my 9 year old nephew and he doesn't require a licence. If we choose to keep

Tied a few more lures tonight. Second day at the new hobbie.
Tried tying some wire worms and got a little fancy and added some extra materials to some. This was my first time at the vice. I see it becoming a very addictive hobbie. I can't wait to try these new creations out and see how they perform under the ice.
Some fish and scenery pictures from the summer.
Photos from hard water season
Im a 32 year old small business owner. I grew up on the lake in the summer water skiing and rarely did any fishing. I grew to love fishing more in my late teens and have become very passionate over the last few years. Now I own my own RV and 14' boat and sneak out every chance I get. Lakes, ponds, rivers or streams, where ever I can get my line wet.
