Fishing Reports-September 3
Bow River Report –September 3, 2014
Decent numbers of rising fish in the last few days on Tricos, Caddis , and BWO’s.
Guided boats that have gone with San Juan Worm rigs have caught a lot of fish in the last week so if you want to get tugged a bunch, that’s the ticket.
Still getting a good number of eats on the Hoppers. Lots of refusals as well, good idea to try something a little different like a big ant, beetle, or cricket.
Fish Creek launch is closed until around September 15 for repairs. And with the rain of yesterday and today, you might want to avoid McKinnon’s for a day or so.
Hatches: Tricos, Caddis, Pseudos
Streamers: Clouser-Brown/White, Geek Leech-Purple, Silvey’s Scuplin Leech-Olive/Black/White Head, Love Bunny, Circus Peanut.

High Country River Report – September 3, 2014
Given the rainfall amounts they are calling for in the southwest corner of the province today, it will likely be the weekend before a lot of the high country streams get back into shape again. Don’t worry, it’s supposed to get nice again on Thursday so they’ll be fine in a day or two.

Fish Ass Friday!
Our first instalment of Fish Ass Friday!
A lot of what we see on social media today are standard, run of the mill face and side shots of fish. Well, for those who truly appreciate the tail, anal, and caudal fins, we introduce F.A.F.
Every Friday, we will post photos of the piscatorial posterior side of nature. All species of fish will be featured, with nothing ahead of dorsal in evidence.
Our first! And for those who use it, go to our Facebook page on Fridays.
If you like the Fish Ass photo you will be entered for a prize draw.
And if you guess what species of fish it is in the comments you'll be entered in a draw for a second prize.

The World's Most Interesting Man
 |
| Mike Guinn continues his status as "the world's most interesting man". When faced with the rear quarter of his trailer frame breaking off, what does he do? The W.M.I.M absconds with a fence post, uses his anchor rope to tie everything up, and brings everyone home safely. Kojak becomes MacGyver! |

Fishing Reports - August 20
Bow River Report –August 20, 2014
Trico fishing has been coming along nicely to provide a perfect wa to use up a few hours of your morning.
Hopper/foam fly fishing has been pretty good. The hopper/dropper thing has been kind of inconsistent. At times you’ll get a bunch of eats on the nymph, but at other times hardly anything. The dry fly stuff has been good enough that most of our guides have been leaving the nymph off and just fishing dry.
Streamer fishing continues to be good.
Don’t forget, the Fish Creek boat launch is closed for about two weeks for repairs. All other downstream launches are open.
Hatches: Tricos, Caddis
Streamers: Clouser-Brown/White, Geek Leech-Purple, Silvey’s Scuplin Leech-Olive/Black/White Head, Love Bunny, Circus Peanut.

Berrett’s Cricket, Morrish Hopper-Tan, Point Guard Hopper-Tan
