Hey everyone I'm looking to fish the Bow River tomorrow but I have some questions. I fished the part by Fish Creek last year but I didn't have much luck (I caught 1 RBT in around 4 hours of fishing) - the current was also really fast.
I'm wondering if anyone has any good places where the current might not be as fast thats within Calgary limits? Adding on to that, I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on how to fish the Bow. I'm going to be using a spoon and casting from the shore so any tips on how to cast, what to look for, etc, would be really appreciated.
Also, I usually fish for Pike so my rod has 30lb line on it - does the strength of the line affect the way trout attack my lure in a river? I see everyone fishing with 8lb lines and under so should I switch it out to lighter line or will I be fine with my 30 pound line. Thanks!
