The Wee-Blog

April 2010 /May 2010

Spring has arrived but is very dry. Water condtions have been reported very low. There is fire bans through out most of the province. I have been spending time looking for a good fly supplier. There has been a increase in prices at local fly shops. I also spent some time with some of the members of Onoway Fish and Game Club. They are interested in me giving a presentation on ultra-lite fishing. I am looking forward to the challenge. I would like to thank Frank at the Mink Lake Store for allowing me to put up a display of my custom tackle. I also asked Marc the web pro. to fine tune my site. There is nothing like banging my head on the wall to when working on my computer. Good Luck to all Fishermans.

September/October, 2009

The weather has been very hot for this time of year. Fishing has been on and off all month long. I was very suprised to hear that most of the boats coming off the lake are complaining the fishing is turned into wishing. I did sell lots of tackle to one man who likes to fish at Dolberg. He came over to shake my hand after he caught a 3.5 pounder Rainbow. He was surprised to catch that hog 20 feet from the dock. Dave the bottom fishing pro come up to fish. As usual he is catching them on ever cast. I did purchase a Okuma Reel just for bottom fishing. It is expensive reel but makes the difference in catching those large fussy fish. The weather is still very warm for october. Star Lake near mink lake produced some big Rainbows. It was very windy so I ended up bottom fishing from the warm cabin of my van. The ice will be coming in very late this year. As of the end of this month there is no snow on the ground.

Trip to Dolberg produced some large fish. There already a hatch of back swimmers. There is a large rainbow close to the dock but it keeps on breaking my 6 lb. line. Some of the fisherman measured the water tempature and to my surprise the water is 20 dregrees down a far as twenty feet or so. The new line professional Berkley fluorocarbon 4 lb test really has good stretch for fighting large fish.

I have really noticed a change in the water. This early in the season I see algae. A lot of the lakes water level have gone down futher than last year. The farmers have said there crops are a right off for the season. Fishing has just started to slow down withe warmer waters. I now spend my time designing flys and working with new suppliers.

spent this month at Carson and to my surprise Fish and Wildlife photographed the Rainbow I caught in front of the boat house. They had commented that it was the biggest fish they have seen.The fish was only ten feet from the boardwalk. The colors are that of a spawning trout. I gave tackle to children just to see how much fun it is for them to catch. My customers were very happy to catch lots of fish so close to shore.

My company was started because I could no longer fly fish. I am recovering from three back surgeries. I just accidently ran across this tiny lures and decided to try them. I tested the part #wee 3 (black) at Carson-Pegasus near White Court, Alberta Canada. To my suprise I was enjoying catching Rainbows with Berkely Vanish Line on a ultra-light rod. I then spent the next year designing and testing my micro lures. The action of the lure triggers a strike with fish. The gentle up and down action. Check out my fishin photos and the rest is history.
