My goal now is to toss my boat on the Bow and do a float by August long weekend, don't even care if we hook up!!! On a side note my buddy's 14 year old daughter caught an 18" Brown off there back porch in Bowness with a funky looking spinner...apparently it was released unharmed to wander around the neighborhood at will...hmm life will find a way!!!

-break my pb sturgeon (67"length x 30")
-land first bull trout on the fly
-10# + walleye
Those would be my top 3 in order.
Would love to knock remaining Alberta species off bucket list but likely have to wait for another year. Those being Grayling, golden trout, whitefish(mountain), and Lake trout. Hmm after reading that list to myself, looks like a trip up north is in the cards

The hike to allstones isnt too bad just that its uphill the whole way. Fishing up there last year was good only one other guy up there all day, and that was on a long weekend. My goal this year is to finally catch a brown on my fly rod.

Catch a large pike at wabamun lake, largest is around 15 pounds that we have had in the boat but that's still half the size of what people are flaming they have caught this summer.
Wouldn't mind dragging out my fly gear and learning to use it for pike also.

a better than 60 inch sturgeon, and more unrealisticly catch a 100 pounder, tag 150, and a 36 inch walleye. maybe beat my pike next winter. Or just fish a lot, that I can achieve
FF I can get you that eye this fall.

40 pound + salmon for myself
Run 200 people through the Lodge
Catch a Salmon on my "new" 1975 wooden peetz reel.
Have guests set new Lodge record for Salmon. I don't think 60# is going to be impossible.

Beat all my personal bests in Alberta: 17+ Pike, 27+ Laker, 9+ Walleye.
Hopefully have the chance to catch my first salmon, halibut, and all the other fun stuff out there on the coast as I have never been.
Most of all have fun with friends and family on the water.
This will be a cool thread to look back on in the fall

My 2013 fishing goals were to catch the last two fish off of my bucket list in Alberta and they are Grayling and Golden Trout. Grayling is done and now I only have golden trout left. Then I have caught all AB sportfish species. Of the non sport species I have caught carp, 3 kinds of sucker, and chubb and that pretty much covers the non sport fish I wanted to catch.

Catch anything on the fly besides a pike or a rainbow! Most likely in the north sask or red deer river if they ever decide to come down

It is the only one I haven't caught but since they are so rare and impossible to individually target, they are not on the bucket list.
