The hatch guide of streams is GREAT. you can also get the big nymph books off Amazon.com for a good price

Follow the Lethbridge fly fishing club site (Chinook Waters Fly Fishing Club - http://www.cwffc.ca) and you should see some good bug and hatch info up soon.

And a great one for Alberta, from Bob Scammell: The Phenological Fly

I have an extra copy of this book that I might be willing to sell. It's a small book, but hard to find for less than $100 on the internet.

 

Handbook of Hatches:
