canadianriverangler Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Been lurking this forum for a little bit now. Lots of awesome photos of very impressive stocked humidors. I have been in this hobby for a while on and off nothing too serious. Mostly just smoke when I'm out fly fishing or being social. But I recently started taking more of a shine to it over the past month. I just picked up a cabinet I want to turn into a humidor. It's made of cedar and has wooden/glass doors. Just going about how I could find some Spanish cedar to line the inside of the cabinet. But that's homework I'll have to do as for now I got a tupperdore to store what I have. And as I mentioned when I'm not working on diesel trucks I am fly fishing. Not sure how many people here do that but would be cool to meet some new faces and talk fishing. Feel free to check out my website here it has a TON of fly fishing related info mostly from Southern Ontario where I live. www.canadianriverangler.ca Regards, Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianriverangler Posted November 26, 2016 Author Share Posted November 26, 2016 Must be nice to live out there. It's on my bucket list to fish out there at some point. Skenna system is what I want to fish. So you used mostly two handers fishing those rivers? The Fraiser is mostly known for Sturgeon fishing no? And I know I have been lazy making videos i have tons of footage but I hate editing them. Man when I'm not working I'm fishing.

Man when I'm not working I'm fishing.   The Fraser is known for Sturgeon, but that is a specialty fishery (special regulations) and not by any means the main fishery.  There are many runs of Salmon and Steelhead and other species in the Fraser and it's many inflow rivers and streams.  In many areas you can use a fly rod and it does not necessarily need to be a heavy weight.  The leader is important...   I don't want to take over your introduction thread, but here are a few picks of the Fraser near Chilliwack where my son and I are fishing with friends over a couple of days about five years ago.  I was using a 8 weight rod and there is nothing like fighting a Salmon on a the fly.  That last one was a nice Steelhead caught by my son... And...  we decided to try a Sturgeon Fishing trip last summer...  my parents, my son and I had a great day of fishing.  We had a guide and it did not involve fly fishing, but we each landed two over six hours.  I threw in one last pic of my son and I holding onto my final catch - the biggest of the day, I might add...  a 6.5 foot monster weighing in at approximately 140lb.  Ahhh, Yes!  This is much better than working...  Nick_O 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianriverangler Posted November 26, 2016 Author Share Posted November 26, 2016 Hey I don't mind about talking fishing haha. Looks like a hell of a good time. Guys say fighting sturgeon is like having a chest freezer that swims on the end of your line. Some beauty Steelhead too. You try for them on the dry?

RedRum Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 A chest freezer that jumps out of the water and swims up river while taking out 200 yards of line. They can fight! My arms are sore again just thinking about it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Nick_O and canadianriverangler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
