I hope your packing rain gear.

Enjoy the fishing!

I just bought all the basic fishing gear last night. If the rain clears up we are going to go to Lac Ste Anne, better knows as Alberta Beach. Can't keep any, but walleye fishing there is supposed to be an easy way to learn to fish.

well no pics forgot the camera, but we caught about 300 pike. the limit is 3 total over 25" most where 24"-30" so no monsters unfortunately. the lake is INFESTED with pike. there are perch and walleye in heart but why would u want to fish for a fish u might catch, when u are garenteed a pike every other cast or even more frequently?

Richard


the limit on pike in lac la biche has been reduced to limit of one and there arent that many in there, or they arent as hungry.

Just come back from my second time out this year from camping at Carson-Pegasus Provincial Park, just west of Whitecourt.

Two lakes associate with it, one stocked with trout that love marshmallows.

I think I am going to have to find some more free weekends this summer!

Oh wow -- there's a blast from the past for me. I used to work up there (well, the Carson Creek gas plant) in the early 90's!! That is a -really nice- provincial park.

I remember once I was biking some 20km loop in the woods around there and I came across a sow and two cubs. Since I was by myself, I sort of thought, wow, this is it. In 2003 some hiker is just going to find a pile of bones and a rusty mountain bike. I have *never* pedalled so hard as I did that day, riding back to the car. On the other hand, maybe that would be fabulous way to train if you could pull that off 2, 3 times per week without managing to get eaten by the bears!!!

hey there rory.......

if you want to learn to fish there is this new place out here by spruce grove called "U-FISH" same concept as "u-pick" it is on some guys private land so there is no need for a licence and there are no limits on how many fish you take..... the pond is stocked with rainbow and steelhead trout..... the owner supplies everything from rod to reel to tackel ($7) too many ppl looseing hooks. he even supplies bait for fishing off the dock...... the cost is $1 per inch....... i took the kid and wife there yesterday and it only cost me 35 bucks i lost 2 hooks.... oh and if you dont loose ur hook you keep it.... we were there for 2.5 hours and had a blast..... a great place to learn how to cast....... my kid finally learned how to do it yesterday....... we only cought 1 fish in the 2.5 hours we were there but it was fun..... a private group came in when we were leaving and cought like 20 fish in about 15 min....damn there luck!!!!! a great place to learn how to fish!!!!!
