Fishing Trip Sunday May 17/09
Bow River: Cushing Bridge to Fish Creek Park
The morning was cloudy but the afternoon was sunny with some wind. The water visibility was about 2 feet; lots of green and white algae which had to be picked off of the hooks after each cast.
I believe that most the fish were away for the long week. I nymphed for most of the trip and used streamers a bit. I only had 4 strikes and only landed one 16” Rainbow who put on a good show by coming out of the water about 2.5 feet twice. This fish took a Silver #18 Lightning Bug.
