Rocky Mountain Whitefish on the Red Deer River


Karen and I decided to target rocky mountain whitefish on the Red Deer River this afternoon before the thunderstorms rolled in! The river is in perfect condition to fly fish for rockies. We fly fished with wiggle worms, Rainbow Warriors (size 14 and 16) and Frenchies (size 12 and 16). We drifted our flies just 4 to 5 below a strike indicator. We look for seams where two currents come together, deeper water and at times, slower water on the edge of faster water!

Tomorrow is tree planting day at the  Agricultural Area just south of the Red Deer Landfill on Piper Creek on Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm. You can sign up right here:
