Fishing the NSR from Rocky to Drayton.

Hey Guys
I'm canoeing the NSR from Rocky to Drayton in late August and I've heard good things about the fishing. Would anyone have some experience and tips they could share? Seems like quite a diversity of species.

you will be canoeing during prime rocky mountain whitefish time, bring some small spinners, wet flies and maggots to target these guys, some split shots on your line to get the flies down is what i use. For larger bulls and brown trout use bigger panther martens or small spoons. Good luck and have fun.
