Thanks Jayhad great info i have camped on christmas tree island before and the noise from the treatment plant there sucks so the noise from deerfoot would probly suck. I dont really care about getting caught by whomever at worst it's going to be a fine wouldn't be my first not going to be my last. This is still in the planning stage, I have fished the upper BOW quite a bit and seeing as it is really an unproductive part of the river, with smaller fish and the weir seems to take a little more skill than just point and shoot i may reconsider and go 17th to carseland.
