phishy 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 Hi everyone! Just started fly fishing/tying a little over a year ago, and would greatly appreciate any tips, techniques and/or patterns that people have found suitable for Brown & Rainbow trout. I've looked through the site, and everyone here seems to know so much, it's great to join the group!! Any other members from Canada? Would love to know of any reccomended places for fishing trout in Alberta. Thanks in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fish For Life 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 I live in Alberta to!!!! There are lots of great little creaks and streams all over that hold some nice trout. For good places to fish i would say the Bow River but im sure your already know that. Good luck and welcome to the site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phishy 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 Thanks FFL. I haven't actually tried fishing the Bow yet - but I definitely will! I just recently was at Red Deer river, and wanted to try Panther when it opens. Thanks for the welcome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spanky29ca 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2013 Calgary here, I recommend you pick up the book "Albertas trout highway" by Barry Mitchell it's a very good book for trout waters along the forestry trunk road. Will give you a start in the right direction. Lots of great information. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McRad 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 I live in Calgary too, only an 8 minute walk from the Bow. I picked up Albertas Trout Highway at either fishtales or wholesale, cant remember. Perhaps the Calgary group could hookup and fish sometime?? Just sayin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
