[Whitefish Catches On The Bow Since Flood Event]

I havent had any white fish since the flood have floated half a dozen times all trout.

This has been the more common response from people I interviewed on the river, keep up the responses and thank you.

Hi,

 

Just wondering if the number of Whitefish caught since the flood had dropped. I can't seem to find any lately. I would enjoy reading your feedback and experiences on your catches of RMW in the Bow River. Thanks.

[Monster Sockeye Unexpectedly Smashes My Fly]

While fishing a likely hole for Chinook this awesome Sockeye smashed by Black Marauder. After entering the river the majority of Sockeye ignore all lures and flies presented to them. I watched as this big shadow came 6 feet across the bottom of the crystal clear deep pool to slash at my fly. Biggest Sockeye I have landed and I hope you enjoy.

Was it possible that avid angler leaked these photos? Only 2 posts? Hmmmmm....

Email forwarded from The Sawmill, they say the sediment came from the South undisturbed face of the creek, I have been advised differently.

 

If you see quads in any river or creek take pics and send ABENV they will charged if there is evidence and proof of identity.

 

I shared the photos will try and see if I can post but difficult from mobile.

The following has been sent to my MLA, the minister of ESRD, and the one who appointed her Allison Redford.

 

Attached is a picture taken on Saturday August 10, 2013 at the confluence of Hidden Creek and the Oldman River. What you see is some very contaminated/mud filled water flowing into the Oldman River from Hidden Creek. If you refer back to your past emails, I and many other concerned citizens sent you concerns over the logging rights given to Spray Lakes Sawmill to log in the Hidden Creek Valley. Concerns were raised over road access ,slopes of the logged areas, and how it this development will cause water quality issues in the basin area. In the ultimate wisdom of the minister the deal to log was signed off on and here we are a few months later. Parts of the lease and access road have slumped into the creek, destroying the water quality and one of the last untouched spawning habitats of Alberta's provincial fish. I pray that you, your supervisor, and Spray Lakes sawmill will be held accountable for your greed and lack of foresight in this disaster. Diana McQueen please step down as the minister of the ESRD before anymore of your uneducated and unqualified decisions put Alberta wild lands at risk.

The minister should step down for her involvement in the decision to open this area up. Her supervisor should be questioned why someone with as little experience in the realm of environmental issues was chosen for this position. I have contacted the DFO to raise awareness to the issue so charges can be laid against all involved. Letters have been sent asking the minister to step down. Please take action.
