The Bow River, just downstream of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is one of the top three trout streams in the world, harboring the most consistently large river run trout you will ever catch. The Upper Bow River near Banff, Canmore, and Lake Louise is a pristine, wild, untouched fishery with cold, fast moving, glacier blue water. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world to catch Brown Trout. Southern Alberta is also home to some of the most breathtaking creeks and rivers to walk and wade for both Cutthroat Trout and Bull Trout. The Oldman River, Crowsnest River, Livingstone River, Highwood River, Sheep River, Ram River and Racehorse Creek contain surprisingly big trout, with a backdrop that is right out of the movies.

Our Season goes all year. Warm chinook winds in the winter trigger good fishing from December to February. Our main season goes from March to November. The best, most consistent fishing is from mid-April until the end of October, with runoff interrupting mid to late June. During runoff, we do Lake Trips for Pike. Prime time for Pike starts when the season opens right after spawn, May 15, until the end of June. During this time of year, the water is cold, and the Pike are feeding aggressively. November is weather dependent and can be great. Contact us if you are going to be in town, and we'll get you out for a fish if the river is fishing well.
