Fly Fishing with the Beavers


Kersplash! The beavers sound the alarm with a resounding tail slap. As you concentrate on fly fishing, it can be rather startling. Well it has happened to Karen and I often as of late, especially when we are out on the water in the evening. The funny part is they can also be quite distracting. We saw one beaver slide down a bank, of course I got a strike on my fly while that was happening. Crazy!

Updates! While the Red Deer River is running high with little visibility, our pot hole lakes are ready to go. Fish stocking is also in full swing. I am sure your favourite lakes are fishable. remember that Sylvan Lake, Gull Lake and Pine Lake are open on the 15th of May. Check your regulations to ensure you are able to get out and fish legally. There are some nice surprises in the regulations, so do take a look!
