What a waste

RCMP in Vancouver destroyed a perfectly good fishing rod! Confused it for an explosive device.

Family Day long weekend

February 13-15, 2010 means free fishing weekend for Albertan's.

Can you think of a better way to spend family day together? Take a kid fishing! While you are at it, take the rest of your family too!

Happy New Year

And this one is a little bit special as it will be the first blue moon on New Year’s Eve since 1990.

Merry Christmas

Broken Paddle Lots for sale

FINALLY!

After jumping through hoop after bureaucratic hoop... (the developers, not me....lol)

I have been informed that the newest lots at Broken paddle are now available for purchase. A little birdie told me the asking price is $55,000.00 each. They are all a 1/2 acre in size and well back from the lake. As a matter of fact, unless I am mistaken, the lake cannot be seen at all from any of these lots. They had a waiting list of purchasers that they are now contacting to see who, after all these years (that would be several), are still interested in purchasing these lots. Those people, as I understand it, have first kick at the cat so to speak. Time will tell if any are still up for grabs.

I will post more info on this as I get the details.

I'm a fisherman

I'm a fisherman and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I fish all day
(He's a fisherman and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he fishes all day)
I catch some fish, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat'ry
On Wednesdays I go quadding
And have battered fish for tea
(He catches fish...)
(He's a fisherman...)
I catch some fish, I flip and bump
I love to cast my lures
I put on protective clothing
And hang around sand bars
(He catches fish...)
(He's a fisherman...)
I catch some fish, I love my reels
Tackle and my rods
I wish I'd been a newfie
When there was still lots of cod
(He catches fish...)
(He's a fisherman...)

My apologies to Monty Python

I hate this time of year. Can't get the boat in the lake and the ice is too thin for my liking.
