Matt Martin does guided fly fishing trips on the upper Credit and the Grand... https://www.smoothriver.ca/

Now put FFS in the drone and have it communicate back to your screen, and you can cover the entire lake without leaving the dock...LOL When does it stop being fishing and just become a video game ? I'm curious if there's anything in the reg's about using this tech ? I know for hunting, drones are absolutely forbidden...but fishing ?

Izzy developed bladder cancer. I'd take her for a walk, and she'd stop every few feet to try and pee. Vet said she had a tumour the size of a baseball in her bladder....very aggressive and had already spread to her other organs. The vet put in a catheter to give her a few more days (she was in pain) so my kids could come home to say good bye...they were in university at the time...one in Kingston and one in BC. We all had one last weekend at the cottage with her...and then Monday, we all went to the vet to hold her that final time. The saddest part of of having dogs as family members is that we as humans generally out live them...

Can't wait for the underwater drone technology...like launching little Hunter Killer subs...😁 Seriously though...the tech has no limits...at some point are the regulations (fish & game act) going to limit the tech ?

We had a strinkingly similar looking member of our family....a Collie cross with the same colouring. We recued her as a 6 month old and named her Izzy, after the mascot of the '96 Summer Olympics. She was gifted with an almost supernatural canine instinct...she knew what you were thinking, before you even thought it. Same thing, she passed at 11 years old hugged by all four us as we bawled like babies..

That was so sweet, it turned me diabetic ! -
Just insane...I dont think they even know what the criteria for legal/illegal is...seems to be based on the "look". As long as they don't touch my O/U 20 g bush chicken getter, and .308 venison sausage maker...I'm good. Although my .22 semi-auto tin can plinker might attract their attention...although its an old (Dad bought it for my 16th birthday) Winchester 49O that certainly doesn't have any "assault" DNA 🙄

Agree. We have a Honda Pilot AWD and a Ram 1500 4×4. Slugging through mud, sand or deep snow, the Ram wins every time...locking differential and gobs of V8 torque... but on an icy, slippery road the Honda with VTM-4 (torque vectoring) and Michelin X-Ice rubber handles like its on skates at any speed.

Sounds like you had a great trip with lots of variety. I assume you stopped in Rabat or Casablanca...yeah, the port cities are pretty grimy in north Africa. Further down the coast is Essouria. Pretty cool place.. nice beaches and a big hippie hangout in the 60's and 70's. The Beatles, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendrix, etc used to hang out there, play at the festival, and smoke Moroccan hash. They still hold the World Music Festival...one of the biggest events of it's kind on the planet...and the local hash still sold everywhere...

Yeah, the Sagrada Familia is stunning...the photos really don't do it justice. Barcelona is a great town...just wish there weren't so many tourists..lol. La Rambla is a zoo, and watch your wallet. We liked Morocco too...spent a week in Marrakech and then drove up to the Atlas Mountains...who knew you could go snow skiing in the middle of the Sahara desert.

My wife and I have done the cruise...Vancouver/inside passage of BC/Sitka/Juneau/Skagway/Glacier Bay/Seward. Two years later, we flew to Anchorage with another couple and rented a SUV for 14 days. Drove the perimeter of the Kenai Peninsula...sightseeing, hiking and fishing along the way...Soltodtna/Homer/Seward...then up to Denali. Much preferred the road trip.. roadside motels and cabins, local down home diners, and of course the fishing. On the cruise...other than the scenery and some of the stops, you could've been anywhere. And you don't get to hangout in a local bar and meet real people...rather than just other tourists and the ship's crew. Same reason I don't like all-inclusive resorts...there's a vacation, and then there's traveling. My wife's been in the travel business for 35 years...she never recommends cruises or all-inclusives if you actually want to travel and experience another place. Just sayin'. .
