The amount of gold that comes out of this channel is unbelivable, its like butter.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks! We really appreciate that.

I've been hooked on this channel. I was out lake fishing in my canoe with my spinning rod (I've always just used spinning rods) when I noticed the amount of bugs on the water. Must have been a big hatch. The fish started rising all around me by the dozen, even a couple feet from my boat. A few smacked my lures but I couldn't entice a single one to do more. I swore to myself that I would learn to fly fish and this channel has been pure gold. If I wasn't in the Canadian Rockies, I'd stop in to the store.

Brian read that when he was 19 or 20? It' must have been written on cuneiform on clay tablets! That's all well and good but what about those of us who fish warm water?
