Hi Guy's

Im off to Lethbridge for my daughter's dance competition.. I have alot of time in between dances on Saturday..

Any place where I can just fish on shore ? Im not too familiar there, so if you know a place, I can look it up on Google and enjoy some time away and fish for an afternoon...
Thank you ! :)

First two that come to mind is Nicolas Sheran for Pike, Brooks, Browns and Perch. Or Henderson for some Pike on the fly. Both right in the city. Can link maps if you need. Was down that way fishing them a few Weeks ago both are active with fish. Npauls is a local there and a good fella. A pm his way might help .

Ya, both Henderson and Nicolas Sheran are open and fish-able (if the wind isn't too much of a bother..... :) )

Henderson has pike and carp. The carp can be caught with dough balls or something similar. Nicolas sheran has large brookies and browns and pike. I don't think riverstone is stocked yet but if it has it will be full of 8-10" rainbows and some pike.

The carp are off limits to fishing and are supposed to be left alone to do their thing of eating the weeds and algae.

Riverstone also has perch and of course some pike found there way in there. Pulled in a pike that was about 8 pounds out of the little back bay that has the fountain in it last year on a streamer.

I thought they opened up the fishing to them sorry I was just going off what a guy I talked to Said when walking around the lake.

Wow! I wonder how the pike get in there. Is it fed with irrigation water? Those pike probably love feeding on the small rainbows every spring. I better take the kids there soon before the pike eat too many trout and everybody keeps their limit.:scared0018:

I am alittle disapointed... brought my fishing gear with me and I woke early just to go... and damn I forgot my jacket at home and it was pouring.
Sun came out for a tiny second and thought hmm I'll go fishing after her dance.

come out after in the the Yates theatre and its snowing ... Like a blizzard :(

So tomorrow I cant fish til afternoon, maybe I'll be able to try again in the afternoon before head home.
Good weekend though, I like watching her dance in competition's...

The weather is suppose to be quite a bit nicer tomorrow. Last I seen it was suppose to be +11 and sunny on Sunday.

I was hoping to get out tomorrow but I guess we are heading out to Vauxhall for a birthday dinner so I am thinking I will end up taking the bow out to the farm and try to get a few gophers while I am out there.
