Adventures On Stump Lake.
Stump Lake, has been fishing really good the past few months. I have had good quality fishing, and the fish size has been exceptional as well. I have taken friends in there and have had great days with lots of nice rainbows, and cutts in the 20, inch size. The flies of choice have been big buggers, and leach patterns, pumpkin Heads, and small nymph patterns. The colors have been greens, and light green, Fifty Two Buick's have to be added in there as well. These flies have been fishing well with sink tip lines, and full sinking lines, and the floating line with an indicator. Stump Lake is a small lake, and it's nicely tree surrounded, the perfect lake for float tubes with good access..
Sailing with Dave..
My good friend Dave Jones, sailed up to Porteau Cove, and I went to meet him. And we chilled out on his 37fter, it was pretty cool we made something to eat had a beer, and I stayed on board for the night. We got up and had a morning cup of coffee, and looked out on Howe Sound and the glassy calm waters. From a far I could see as I glassed the water, that there were some whales out there that were feeding. We went for a sale, around in the Howe Sound and it was a blast out there, on the way out we saw a porpoise, right beside the boat. Awesome to see that. After a three hour sale around we came back and Dave dropped me off so I could pick up my car, and we met at the Brew Pub, for some lunch and then out to do some climbing at the Smoke Bluffs. It was an awesome day, I hadn't climbed for a long time. Good times as always, and a fun sailing lesson..
Daisy Lake Adventure..
I went with my buddy Ryan, to fish daisy Lake, and Brandywine River. We took the raft and put in from the dam end, and motored across the lake and stopped in to fish Jane's, but didn't get anything so we continued up to the mouth of the Brandywine River, where we fished the mouth and caught many nice rainbows. We fished sink tips, and big bugger patterns and had big fun. It was the first time I had ever fished the river, and had such a blast with Ryan. Even though it was a rainy cloudy and a bit cold day it was still super fun.

Swinging, for steel on the upper Squamish River.
It was a great day to swing for those elusive steelhead, on the upper Squamish River. I met my fishing buddies, for the day at 7am, at Ryan's place. Me Dave, and Ryan, made our way up the rd, to the river and the put in spot. We put in at Shovelnose Creek, and drifted to the Memorial Run. The day went well and we had a lot of fun, and just seeing the river and fishing some nice water. As it goes sometimes you don't always catch the fish, but you can have a great day, trying!!. You always say wow!!, what a great run, or riffle, and it didn't produce a single fish. Sometimes that's what happens, or the fish are there and don't want to take anything, or there just wasn't anything there. The thing is you never know. It was a great day, and hanging out with the guys, and just enjoying where you are is important. Fun times!!.. As always. To the Watershed Grill. for a cold one...
Fishing upper Cheakamus River.
It was a great day to try our luck on some trout in the upper Cheakamus, up by Lucille Lake. I picked up my friend Jeanette, and we headed out for our grand adventure, on the river. The river was in great shape, and color. We went through a few spots, and put a few different flies through but the fish just didn't co operate. It was still a super fun day, and we had a great time. I guess it doesn't matter how many fish ya catch, or if you catch fish, as long as your having fun. You gotta look stylish!!..

Camping at Blackwater Lake.
The past weekend, I went on the first camping weekend in awhile. I went to meet Pat up at Blackwater Lake, for a fun bit of fishing, and hanging out. To my surprise I ran into Dan, and Andrew, and had a little hang out with them. The weekend was good, and weather was awesome, the fishing was a little slow. For the amount of people that were out on the lake, the amount of fish that were caught wasn't great. We had some great food, and drink, sitting by the fire. Super fun time was had by all, I brought a friend up with me, Michele, and she had a great time just kicking around in the float tube, and enjoying being out there. It was awesome, I had fun!!..
