Rocktober and some fall fishing action

 

Bow River brown trout fishingFall fishing is in full swing and the leaves have all morphed from green to golden yellows and maroon red. The water temperatures have cooled down but the fishing action is just getting warmed up. The last couple of guided fishing trips have been very successful, with my clients landing fourteen rainbows and one brown last Saturday. Sunday October the 14th was even more successful, with twenty incredible fish landed including two browns, which happened to be a first for my clients Carla and her son Caylen. It was a great day for fishing the Bow River!

I capped of a fantastic 2018 guided fishing season at the end of October with John Martin and Chad fishing last Saturday, and John and his neighbor Edwardo wrapping up the season in style with some incredible brown trout seen here.

I would like to say that it has been an honor and a blessing to be your fishing guide once again this year on the mighty Bow River. I am always grateful to see each and every one of you on the jet boat. I would sincerely like to thank all my repeat clients for coming back year after year, and I would also like to thank those of you who have never taken a guided fishing trip with me and chose to hire me as your guide this year. We caught and released some amazing trout once again, not to mention all the laughs and memories we created out there on the water.

It is time to put the boat away and close shop for the year. I hope everyone has a wonderful winter and I look forward to seeing all of you again next year. For those of you who want to re-book for the 2019 fishing season, or those of you interested in a guided jet boat fishing trip, please feel free to contact me and we can book a date for you.

    Hey Mike! I just wanted to thank you so much for taking my son and me out on the breathtaking Bow River this October. Your passion for fishing and teaching others how to fish was obvious right from the start! You showed us everything from how to tie a hook to what line to use and most importantly, where and how to find the fish! You were extremely patient with me & my son, you answered all of our questions and made sure that we were safe, comfortable and having a great time. Your energy was electrifying and made the trip so much fun! We caught so many trout….. Rainbows and Browns and HUGE too! What a fantastic day that we will never forget!
    Thank you!
    We will definitely be back in 2019!!!
    Maybe some spring fishing next year for sure!
    Your fishing friends for life,

    Carla & Caylen

    Super glad to hear you will both be back in 2019, would be my honor and pleasure to guide you both again.

    Stay warm over the winter,
