A Guided Fishing Trip               PHOTO GALLERY
The clouds finally broke and the sun shone through here in trout country. I was fortunate to guide three very nice people from El Segundo, California today and we were able to catch some nice fish from the Bow River. We headed up to one of my favorite Brown Trout holes today and had some success while there. John latched into a very nice Rainbow Trout on the way up to the hole and this fish gave him a serious run for his money. He was able to battle this very hard fighter and reel him into shore where I helped him unhook the trout and take a quick photograph. The big smile on his face told the story as the trout here just seem to be a little bigger than other places in the world. His friend Josh was also able to hook into a couple of nice sized Browns as well.
My main goal today was to get Dave and the boys into some larger Bow River trout and this Rainbow was a welcomed site for both me and my clients. I try my very hardest to provide the best possible experience for my client/clients at all times. As we made our way up to the big trout hole we had a nice talk and got to know each other better. That’s the thing about guiding is you get to meet great people from all over the world. While talking with Dave I got the feeling of just how lucky we are here in Alberta to have a river system such as the Bow right out the back door.
We were able to hook some nice Browns in our destination point but today’s trout we just not hitting as hard as I have seen in the past and kept popping off our laser sharp hooks. I guess every fisherman has his day, but it would have been nice for me to see Dave pull one of those bigger fish he had on into the shoreline. Never the less I had a blast guiding these great people today and I hope they share the same feelings as we parted company. I hope to see you back again Dave as there are bigger trout here just for you. Thank you so much for letting me be of service to you today.
