The Walleye in Chin reservoir know where mud lines will form and use them on windy days. One spot, well east of the bridge, is only a foot deep and still holds fish. The same holds true in other southern Alberta reservoirs.

Fish are not smart. Not much problem solving going on upstairs. Everything done is done on instict, which doesnt require thought. Why are fish so smart? Because they travell in skoolz.

anybody seen the mythbusters where they train the goldfish to swim through a hoop to get food?

I still don't understand those days where they refuse 4 different dries, and when I switch to a nymph they hit the indicator
