Fishing Trips on the Lower Bow River – Part #5

 Another piece of advice I would give to the angler who selects the Bow River for their next fishing trip, is to check the local sport fishing regulations guide before you head out. Here are the regulations as of April 1, 2006 From the Western Headworks Diversion Weir to the Carseland Weir (includes 500 meters of the Highwood River) but excluding all waters in the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary – Open all year.  April. 1 to March 31- Trout limit 1 under 35cm; All trout over 35cm must be released; Mountain White limit 5 over 30cm; bait ban is in effect on the Bow River and Alberta has barbless hook rule in effect.
