Fishing With New Friends, And Old Friends...

Tight lines lots of fun and some awesome company. I took Marie, out to catch a few pinks on the lower Squamish. What a blast I had tons of fun, she had never flyfished before and she was very eager to get out there and try it. I did my usual and taught her the basics of casting and she did the rest. I couldn't believe how fast she learned. It was a great day, eventhough I didn't even cast a line that much. It was warm and sunny. It's great because I am off for a week, and having some new friends and old friends, out on the river is all that counts. I invited Dave, Andrea, Holden and Avery to come and try some fishing. It was great to finally get them out there and watch them hook up on a few. I ran into lots of other people that I haven't seen for awhile. My good buddy Cliff, even showed up and it was great to see him as well. Kirt an old buddy of mine from way back came up a few times and it was good to see him as well.. It was a social event all in all, and that's what makes it so much fun to hang out with everyone.

The Fly Tying Lesson..

Melanie wanted to tie her own fly, so I showed her how. It was a great success, the fly looked great and it worked like a charm. She used her fly the next time we went out and she caught a dozen pinks.. It was great to see her catch fish on something she tied herself. She was very happy to learn how to do that, and I was happy to teach her. She is a very good student and a fast learner.

TOP ROD FLYFISHING CLUB, SQUAMISH BC..

The Top Rod Flyfishing Club made an appearance on the river the last few weekends and made a bit of a commotion. The cast of characters, are Stefan Bulowski, Melanie Biemanne, Brian Mcnaughton, Jonathon Barlow, and Andy Racz. All members were cacthing lots of fish, and having a blast. As the fishing commences, our newest member did very well hooking up on fish after fish, and landing them all on her own.. What a show. I gave her some instruction on how to land them and she did very well, Melanie impressed me every time she hooked up.. Her casting was awesome and her determination was fierce.. Archie, and his wife were out there and they did well, his wife Lynne, and Melanie were catching alot this one day and we called it ladies day!!. Melanie said I can't remember when I had this year so much fun at all!!. What do I need more as great salmon catches, and a sunburn for free!.. There you have it coming from the Flyfishing Guru from Germany..
