Sunday on the Bow
Was fly fishin yesterday on the Bow at the Glenmore bridge. It was a great day. Warm and no wind and the fish were on.
I'm standing on shore casting, and I hear a "Watch out" behind me. 2 guys walked right into my back cast. He said, "you need to watch what your doing". I started to laugh at him and asked back "why would you walk directly behind me?" . He didn't answer. When he walked by I saw they both had pickerel rigs on their rods. One with worms, and the other with minnows. I politely told them they cannot use them, but I don't think they understood me. On one of the guys first cast, he loses his rig on some rocks. So this is when I decided to call RAP.
5 mins later, the other has a rainbow on his line. He pulls the 18"/19" fish in, holds it up, drops it on the rocks, and KICKS the trout back into the water.
I hung out for a half hour after I made the phone call, and nobody showed up. Nothing against F&W, maybe they were very busy yesterday.
What else do you do, short of starting a fight.
