Hi Everybody!

Karen and I just got back from the Parkland Region of Manitoba. We were hosting a fly fishing trip that was centered out of Arrow Lake Lodge near Russell, Manitoba. There was a total of 15 of us. Most of the group came from our fly tying club in Red Deer. Our buddy Phil Rowley accompanied the group to mentor the group. He did a great job. The fishing at Tokaryk Lake, Patterson Lake and Pybus Lake was fantastic. The nine hour drive across the prairies was long but talking, laughing and listening to satellite radio got us home in quick order.
