"Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, overcivilized people are beginning
to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity..."
John Muir penned those words over 100 years ago, but they ring more true today than ever. At
BowCrow, we're in the business of helping tired and "overcivilized people" be refreshed in the rivers and streams flowing
east from the Canadian Rocky Mountains, and encounter more than a few of the local piscatorial residents along the way! We'd
love to introduce you to some wild trout in wild places this season.
2023 was another fantastic season in the Alberta Rockies and
foothills streams! We've had consistent seasons in the past several years full of excellent wild cutthroat, rainbow,
brown trout, and bull trout fishing...including cracking the 20in mark on the Crowsnest each of the last 3yrs, browns to 26in
on the Bow, cutts to 20in in the mountains, and some epic bull trout in excess of 30in.
If you are planning an Alberta fly fishing adventure of your
own this year, we still have several openings scattered throughout the upcoming season...please contact us as soon as possible
to see if we can accommodate your trip, as 2024 season dates are filling rapidly. We are also actively booking trips for the
2025 season.
Note that we are offering full- and half-day float trips and walk-and-wade
trips on the Bow River in addition to our acclaimed lineup of all-inclusive packages and day trips to other exceptional SW
Alberta waters.
