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.
