Alberta's Bow River

The Bow River is a world renowned river starting on the east side of the Alberta Rockies and flows through the City of Calgary and Southern Alberta. Enjoy a float through the legendary Blue Ribbon Stretch around Calgary, fishing for wild, tenacious Rainbow and Brown Trout.

This stretch of river holds fish with averaging sizes between 16–20 inches. It is not uncommon though, to get a trophy fish that is much larger. Let us show you an exciting day of fishing, while drifting this world class river.

Rocky Mountain Foothills

Southern Alberta Mountain Streams

Southern Alberta isn't just known for the Bow River and its Prairie landscape. Just south west of Calgary there are several rivers located within the Rocky Mountains (1.5–2 hours away).

A walk and wade day on these scenic rivers allows you to fish for native Cutthroat Trout, and also has the potential to produce a Bull Trout.
