So i have been workin in Alberta in HighRiver and Calgary , been doing a little trout fishing in my spare time around Calgary area with not much success. yesterday i purchased a Redington fly fishing kit from wholesale sports. I always wanted to learn how to fly fish it looks like alot of fun. a fellow co-worker and myself traveled to braggcreek to check out a couple spots to fish.. the first pond we went to was called Allen bill pond but unfortunately it was next to the river and was completely washed away in the flood, second we went to a pond called mcleans pond..didnt have much luck with the fly rod..but managed to catch 4 rainbows on the tried n true bobber n worm combo.. I have alot to learn about fly fishin was kinda embarrassed to learn from another angler that i was not even set up properly.. i was tying my flies directly to the leader and didn't have a tippet attached..DAM.. you would think that for 250 bucks they might give a little more instruction on how it all works..lol..anyways was alot of fun and i cant wait to get home and back to the salmon chase and will continue to hone my fly fishing techniques..
