We finished on top of the world and had the best fun I have ever had on a fishing vacation in Alberta. I would like to thank my team for coming out and giving there all. There was some very serious talent at the competition. What was amazing was how all the competitors shared there thoughts, ideas, there knowledge to make everyone better.The competition actually became a second issue and everyone was greeted and welcomed with open arms, regardless of who they are in the flyfishing world. Everyone was very approachable and you simply felt at home and welcomed No secrets and no holding back. As Todd Oishi said " We are here as competitors to make everyone feel welcomed, to share our knowledge so that all competitors will become better at this craft. And to develop depth in a flyfishing community from new, youth to seasoned anglers so that Canada will have some depth to compete at World Events. This was the most fun you can have with your waders on. I would do this again anytime just to meet and help were I can with my new friends.

I couldn't agree more.. Though I could not compete with my bum leg I chose to volunteer for the event and that was a very wise choice on my part.

The variety of people and the friendship and comradery was absolutely amazing. I thought it was incredible that people in competition with each other would share so easily. I learned more about myself as an angler in the week than I have in the last year and if you knew how much I've learned in the last year you would understand how exciting that is.

 

If you missed this then you truly missed out on something special..

Michael Short will have a show on the competition, that I believe will be broadcast in January. I will follow up on this to everyone when I have the link sent to me.

Jim it was good training for the bigger event that I hear may come to us in Canada. And the Bow River would be the venue. Cant wait and I want to be all over that executive committee and fish it if I qualify. But cant say to much at this time….

Seriously, as Jim and Gary said this was a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to do it again.
