Got a date, and a canoe plus gear, now what
So this girl I know has been buggin me for quite awhile to take her fishing with me. And she's probably about an 8 outta 10, so I kinda want to impress a little. But I've been in manitoba all summer and haven't fished Alberta really at all this year. So what's a good spot that's happening right now? I don't care what kind of fish just as long as we get some, and I got a canoe so a lake that's not super windy on average would have to almost be a must with girls on board. oh and did I mention she wants to go TOMORROW, help me out here guys, I was thinking pine coulee but I got skunked there last time I went and, it's not very senic.

It would sure help if you had pics. :sHa_shakeshout:
|
I'll send ya one, how do I post pics on here
|
If you're in Calgary now, why don't you try spray lakes or something south of Canmore. Pretty easy to catch fish and doesn't get that windy. Pretty nice scenery too so you will probably slay after the fishing.
|
Ya I am in calgs. Spray is a beauty spot but ive never even caught a cold out there Before
|
You ever use little mepps spinners, seem to do the trick there
|
this usually works on the 8 out of 10's
PEACH SCHNAPPS cant help ya with the fishing though |
Lemon gin works pretty good too
|
definatly head up to k country pick up some little mepps spinners and hit pretty much any of the trout lakes up there. theres nothing like the mountains to get a girl in the out-doors-y mood.
x2 on the peach shnapps. patron is quicker though, |
If you got skunked on pine coulee, your in trouble. :sHa_sarcasticlol:
|
To be fair I was ice fishing at pine coulee.
|
what about dickson trout pond? you could paddle to the other side were
no one goes hardly at all. should be able to get a few bows out of there. |
You don't want to get skunked, but I'm not talking about fish. Pick a pretty, scenic place first of all. Then think about somewhere nearby to have a nice romantic dinner at afterwards. I'd lean towards the Banff/Canmore area if I were you. THEN think of a place where she can get a fish, and you can profusely compliment her.

Listen to Coulee, I have a lot of experience with 8/10's. Hey, if you can do it it's not bragging. Anyway, take her to Bear Pond in South K-Country for Arctic Grayling. Beautiful drive, gorgeous little lake and exotic fish. Catch them on small spinners, dry flies, steamers and nymphs. She will have to help you carry the canoe up the hill from the parking lot, but you'll find out what she's made of. And hopefully there's a little spice mixed in with all that sugar. Good luck.

im not trying to be a downer with my comments or anything. ive been in his situation. if i am planning something for someone I am a perfectionist. My ex loved that but at the same time hated me fore it because if one little thing didnt happen I`d be a little irked by it because in my mind if it wasnt perfect, it wasn`t right. I dont like factors other than ones caused by myself to stand in my way. So i try to plan for all possible scenarios.

Take her out on the docks at pine coulee bring a lawn chairs and some mino's / smelts even and you will have a blast. |
I am shocked that no one has said anything about her ONLY being an 8/10....if she ever reads this your butt will have skid marks on it from being kicked to the curb ! All women we date are 10`s .....aint that the truth?
|
I just find it funny how he has to let us know that she is an 8/10 when he could of said he was taking out a pretty girl fishing and wanted to impress her.

And his asking here reveals that he's not used to dating 8 out of 10"s. :sHa_shakeshout: LOL Sorry, just couldn't resist. Piece of advice... think of any girl you are out with as a 10 out of 10. |

lol nice. but my ex can attest that we have had 2 days where we were almost capsized in those waves. spray lakes is narrow but it runs the same direction as the wind blows on that lake and with the length, by the time it hits the bend it can make some pretty nasty swells. remember he is in a canoe not a 18 footer like you probably fish from. But nice try to make me look like a girl. speaks alot for your character and maturity. A true keyboard warrior. Ps I did recommend a lake and even offered him a map of some protected waters that he can fish from if winds are blowin. spray can be calm but more often than not winds pick up and most people who ice fishes spray can attest that the winds at spray if there is any are more than just "a little bit of wind" |
