Our Fishing Report
The 22X to Carseland drift on
Sunday was a challenging day
on the Bow. The fishing
started out good in the
morning using streamers then
slowed down considerable
towards the middle of the
day. Based on our conversions
with a number of boats it
appeared to be a relatively
tough day of fishing for many
due to the fast, murky and
weedy water conditions. The
encouraging thing is that the
river does appear to be
clearing up. There were rises
towards the evening however
the majority were smaller
fish.
Visibility of the water was
approximately 2 -3 ft above
the Highwood and far less
towards McKinnon. There are
still alot of weeds floating
on the South bank of the
river.
Favourite patterns were San
Juans, caddis partridge
emerger, black Bow River
Bugger, clousers (black and
olive), elkhaired caddis,
There were lots of Tricos
during the day and some
caddis appeared toward the
evening. There were plenty of
grasshoppers in the grass but
failed to bring many fish to
the surface.
HAVE A GREAT DAY OF FISHING!!!
