You're just chubbing with me Tosh. New word... call Webster's

chubbing: the act of poking lighhearted fun at someone, making whymsical remarks or dry sarcastic pokes (chubbs) in order to create humour in a chubbdarter-like fashion while staying up late in front of a computer, eating KFC and listening to Sonny and Cher and dreaming of Hooters girls

You've got to be chubbing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What lake is that? Must have been a looooong time ago before we started getting heavy snowfalls. Maybe the previous global warming before the dinosaurs. He looks warm. Guess they didn't have augers then... just shoot a hole in the ice.

lets not get to hasty here. fh7 and i have decided that shore fishing is not practical and we need a subway boat. order will be placed tommorow. does your site have a boat launch?

travers for sure TR, look at the shoreline. chubb don't waste time anywhere else. looks to be a nice spring day. tosh is gonna be in some heat for posting this photo. i'm sure i know that chunk of shoreline. gotta be a spring honey hole.

I think he'll be OK. Pretty sure that shoreline eroded during the ice age between now and then.

whatever you asked for some advise. there's no possible way of getting a tub in at my location. maybe one of those fan jobs or them beaver tail flat bottom buggys. completely unnecessary though, not needed with this french technique. real finesse is required. how long do road flares usually burn for anyways? you could land an airplane in my back forty right now. oh, they've started up again, i can hear em. another hour or so.

My friend sent me some Ontario regs and asked me if I noticed anything weird about them. I noticed within one minute that so many lakes have Lake Trout closures, Something is up. At least they noticed in Ontario. Alberta government seems to think it is amunied to any affects of global warming or adverse affect of pollution.

they have been clear cutting for over a century, why all of the sudden? All clear cut areas are replanted once the harvest is complete. Plus, with the controlling of forrest fires, forests are getting older, not younger, thus the onslaught of pine beetle.

Default Are we warming???

Some people would have us think we are warming. This is a chart showing temps for the last 17,000 years.


PREDICTIONS BASED ON PAST CLIMATE PATTERNS

Global climate changes have been far more intense (12 to 20 times as intense in some cases) than the global warming of the past century, and they took place in as little as 20–100 years. Global warming of the past century (0.8° C) is virtually insignificant when compared to the magnitude of at least 10 global climate changes in the past 15,000 years. None of these sudden global climate changes could possibly have been caused by human CO2 input to the atmosphere because they all took place long before anthropogenic CO2 emissions began. The cause of the ten earlier ‘natural’ climate changes was most likely the same as the cause of global warming from 1977 to 1998.




Figure 2. Climate changes in the past 17,000 years from the GISP2 Greenland ice core. Red = warming, blue = cooling. (Modified from Cuffy and Clow, 1997)

Not so fast. Frogs are regulated under the Wildlife Act. Along with Crocs and Hippos.

Catching the wrong species could get your Minivan impounded and land you in jail.... after the appropriate beating...

what do you guys think.
I agree. I heard global warming...causes global cooling which starts the next ice age. Winterkill will occur over the whole globe.

We are doomed.

Curious though...the earth has been warming since the last ice age...yet lake trout have not gone extinct yet.

Me thinks the writer is just desperate to sound knowledgeable on a very controversial subject. There is a link to every conceivable world issue from slugs to earthquakes...all caused by global warming based upon some hypothesis or another.

Anyways...if the earth is warming so horribly so...why is it so FREAKING COLD in Calgary the past year?

Pipelines and oilfield clearcutting does not have the impact you are alluding to. Forestry on the other hand...they do the clear cutting.

It is true however that exposure to direct sunlight does harm trout species. I worked on the Dogpound Creek project. They fenced off the creek from cattle and other disturbances. In turn mother natures grew the willows etc along the creek and in effect shaded it.

The shade in turn decreased the temperature of the creek. Trout can't stand higher water temperatures. I suspect many creeks in the foothills and close prairies contained trout at one time...cutthroats anyways. They are so small that the impact of clearcutting and cattle grazing ruined them. Good thing is that with fencing...you can bring it back.

Blaming everything on the oil industry is as common as blaming everything on global warming IMHO.

That almost sounds like a family radio prediction....I have a really hard time believing that prediction. Climate change seems to be a near impossible thing to accurately predict to the point of knowing what it will be like that many years ahead. At least it looks like I will still be catching them until I die...although I still have never caught one!

I agree with you 100%. There is a creek in cypress on the Saskatchewan side that has mountain suckers in it. I don't know where the next closest location to the Rockies that has this fish species but I find it odd that they would be this far east if their original distribution was not much greater at one time.
