Yoho Banff and Kootenay
 

Hi,
I'm leaving for my honeymoon in two days and the trip includes multiple hikes/backpack in the parks. Some of the stops include Lake O'Hara, Mt Assiniboine, Floe lake. It looks like most of the alpine lakes have fish but I couldn't find much information and I know at those altitude a lot of the fish are pretty stunted. Any suggestion on where to focus some fly casting to connect with some nice Westslopes cutties?
Thanks
Gian

"Any suggestion on where to focus"...

Yes. A good tent, comfy bedding and your new bride!

Bring a pen, the ranger up there will make you write a history of your gear.

Headwall Lakes in Kananaskis!

Congrats and have fun.

Why would he do that?

Emerald lake, drive right to it, best fishing is in the opening week. It was an annual event for over 35 years for me, but now parks caNADUH is using whirling disease as an excuse to enforce catch and release. They've been wanting to stop fishing in the parks since the 70's when they quit stocking fish, it is the only extractive recreation in the parks, e.g. you are not even supposed to pick berries there etc. If this does not change I will never buy another park pass or NP fishing licence again. Really too bad because the Brookies out of Emerald are in my opinion the best tasting fresh water fish I have ever eaten.
