[Trout near olds]

Staying in olds for a couple of nights, any trout streams close by ?

[Soft hackling]

I also grew up swinging wet flies, hadn’t used this technique for years, tied some coach y bonddu and diawl Bach to use on the little smoky, had a blast, caught a shed full of small grayling

[Wet flies]

Tried it on my first crack on the little smoky, swinging a diawl Bach and a coch y bonddu, had a blast, caught around 30 grayling between 4 and 10 inches

[Wet flies]

Been Stillwater flyfishing around stony plain since moving to Canada, I’m hankering after what I’m used to some stream fishing, looking at rivers like prairie creek, bow river etc, what I’m used to is fishing a wet fly, wading downstream casting at right angles to the flow, just wondering if this works in Canada or just stick to streamers and nymphs under an indicator

Check out where the Blaeberry enters the Columbia river. You can park just off the trans-canada highway by the bridge over the Blaeberry river. Its a bit of a walk from there but worth it. Another spot is the Bluewater Rec area that isnt too far. You can also find fish in the Blaeberry itself, but the Columbia is best for numbers. Also Kinbasket lake can be good where streams dump in. I grew up there and Sept/Oct was one of my favourite times. Make sure to bring a heavy set up and lots of BIG white bunny style flies. The kokanee might be starting their run, but the bulls will probably be feeding on whitefish/suckers primarily. Wouldnt hurt to bring flies with some red on them, but not necessary in my opinion. Lots of bulls up to and around 10 lbs in there. Might be some rainbows, but I've always only been able to catch them in the spring.

Have fun, it's a gem of an area!

Thanks for the info much appreciated

Going to golden bc beginning of september, looking to fish for a few hours, any recommendations for trout streams close by, staying near blaeberry, maybe the blaeberry river ?

No sir it is not. The Clearwater barely is. We have feets of snow in the timber to melt off simultaneously which will murky things up. I'd say in two weeks you should be good to go.

Thanks for that

[Prairie creek]

Anyone know if prairie creek is ice free yet

[Fish Handling]

We have fishing shows on tv showing so called professional anglers picking fish up by the gill covers, then the next shows another pro not using a landing net with the fish floundering about while he insists on showing us how good he is at gripping the fish upside down, I was wondering how people are educated about fish handling, just an observation but I find people that behave like arseholes while fishing do so in all their daily activities

[Red deer river]

Just for you fishinglibin, weirdo lol

[Red deer river]

Thinking more of summer Uber 

[Red deer river]

Worked near drumheller this week, great access for the red deer river, what’s the trout fishing like in that area

[Ice free bow]

Thanks, maybe leave it for a few weeks then lol

[Ice free bow]

Wondering how far down from Calgary the bow would be ice free to fly fish, don’t know the river at all so the thought of standing on an ice ledge to fish doesn’t appeal to me
