I am going to be in the river March 6th and 7th. This is the earliest I have ever fly-fished in Canada.
2 and a half hour drive west of Lévis where I live.
The Yamaska river north branch has a lots of swift waters so it does not freeze and gives the much needed oxigen and food Trout needs in order to survive.
I have not fished this river for close to 15 years but friends tell me it is as good if not better than it was years ago.
Brown trout is mainly what we go after…there’s a few Rainbows here and there but mainly Browns.
With the water as cold as it is, you need to bring food to the trout in a slow drift and be very carefull for any change of direction in your fly line…
I fish wit a weighted Stone Fly….
The fly has to drag on the bottom…That’s what makes it tricky when a trout bites…
But as I always say….fishing is only an excuse to play oudoor….Be sure to comeback and check for video clips I will be posting and pictures….
Till next time, Be safe out there and if you feel like it leave us a comment..
You think you hate winter…here’s another reason why you should….Feb. here in Quebec is been real nice and mild…now normally this is the worse month for cold weather….The key word here’s normally….very weird and for those of you who read and follow this blog and the comments a little while ago I was writing…HOPE WE DON’T GET TO PAY FOR THIS …nice weather…..Guess what….WE ARE…..Winds up to 65mph….and the weather arour 32F. meaning the snow’s heavy….one shovel weights around 40pounds….no joke…so after a couple thousand in a day…your back…arms ans so on are DEAD…tired….and you have to keep on…customers are calling in the middle of the storm wanting to get out and drive so I have to shovel there steps…so they can get to their car and drive off…what a buch of idiots….It is dangerous out there…STAY HOME…They call 911 to ask if the garbage truck will pick up the garbage….WHAT’S WRONG PEOPLE? OR IS IT ME?….IF IT IS LOCKME UP…IF IT’S YOU THAN GET A HOBBY….I always had a hard time with stupidity, my friends can tell you…..AND YES MY FRIENDS ARE AMERICANS….Got a problem with that…..I associate with proud people….The Red, White and Blue…and I always will… Canadian by birth…Southerner BY CHOICE…
Back to this subject….the next couple of video clips will show you what a storm is and driving in it….
Good viewing….
And now the driving part…
As usual we enjoy your comments…feel free to drop a line…
The next pictures were taken for the pleasure of your eyes…..
The first one shows some snow and a fishing rod…Do you think I am ready….I dare to say yes….mind you there’s still lots of good ice fishing as a fact for panfish the best is yet to come….on the ice….
The weather was quite nice and getting there was fun….about a 10 minutes walk….in the snow…
Tracks in the snow….the bird…..a Partridge….I was not quick on the camera or I would’ve shown you a nice picture.
This is for your eyes pleasure…
I have to go back to this type of fishing first…..Ice fishing……YESS…..I love this….
For a change I could always go Fly-fishing….
Man….The fever’s on…..
In my next post I will tell you about ways to find fish at this time of the year….(Ice fishing)…

Who will it be….Here it is WHO DAT…..Yeap, the Saints….I know on paper and by the GURUS of Vegas they prefer the Colts….
I think it will all come down on how the D-FENCE plays…..If the saints attack Manning the way they have hammered Favre…they will force him in rushing his passes and it will be the end of the Colts….Now if they protect Manning and He has time to throw and or have his guys run….it will be the end for the Saints….The Gurus are all looking at numbers….
The Saints are hungry….Never been there and they are tasting victory bad….for this reason I thing they will come out enraged and will win the Super bowl…Sure, I don’t think it will be high score game…..But Breese can and will run….
Well guys this is what I think….let the world know what you think…..
Not much happenin…in my life so I try to eavesdrop on conversation….Not really….I just over heard two guys at the super market talking about global waming and water saving….I could not make sense of what they were talking about….
One guy was saying, I hate folks that water their lawn for an hour a day and wash their car every weekend…they are wasting water…and the other guy goes on to say….Global warming is getting so bad….folks are not caring about the state of our planet….The South pole ice shield is melting and the Northern passage in ice free….We are going to drown…….WHAT…..)((*(*&?*%*&$?&$……You were talking about wasting water a minute ago???…..WASTE WATER AND SAVE THE PLANET……
People don’t make sense or is it me……SAVE WATER….in one sentence and DROWN in the other…..
I work with one of those guys….you can’t flush until the toilet is full and smelly….then they complain about the smell…I guest it is because it is not their own….SH*&?(*%…
Don’t drink too much water….WHAT???Am I going to drown????….GOD …….wake up and be coherent…..
Why don’t you mind your own *)*)(??*&*%&?%&?%….and let people think…..we all were given a BRAIN you know….Well the word all maybe exagerated……
What do you think?……
Let me know….. I fell like a dinosaur……
