Hi all just thought of giving a report on the best day of fishing i had since i have come to Canada !!!!.:sHa_shakeshout:
Went Hiking to Arnica lake in Banff National park ( abt 5.1 km just ahead of Boom lake on the highway ), my first ever hike here in Canada.. and tell you what i had to rest after abt. every 10-15 minutes...and take a break.....
when finally reached the lake.. was delighted with the sight :)... started fishing at around 1 pm till 5 pm.. and tell you what wasn't disappointed at all... caught at least more than 25 fish ( lost count after abt. 20) and lost dozen or so, my buddy landed 22 fish and miss few...!! all cutties.. beautiful coloration on the cutties....used an oragne color spoon ( dont know the name,i had found that one!!! and my buddy was using mepps yellow colour spoon.., cutties were goin crazy for them , almost every other cast we got a bite or had a fish on....
Over all what a day of fishing... Was worth a hike...great day overall and will definately go back.......:bad_boys_20:
