There is plenty of good fishing in Alberta if you look for it and that includes trout.

Personally stocked “trophy trout” don’t do it for me especially when there is so many self sustaining options. Even the highly promoted stocked fisheries in B.C. suck compared to many of the less talked about self sustainable populations. The same goes for Alberta

I can respect others enjoy them and support the government providing this style of management/stocking for those who do enjoy theses fisheries. But realistically there is good options beyond theses waters for those who choose to seek them out even here in Alberta

Yes I do trips outside of Alberta but it’s often to experience a different species or style of fishery or just to explore but if anyone thinks there is no quality fishing in Alberta they need to look harder

But to each their own
