Welcome!!

Bow is tough until you find where to catch them. Summer is definitely easier as they are all over.

Generally, you want to find some character in the water with flow at about walking speed or a bit faster.

I've found rapalas work best (brown/rainbow with smaller sizes in winter/spring, can go up to size 9 if targeting biggies).

If on the fly then there is more to talk about, with lots of sites and threads that will be more helpful (but the most exciting way to fish the bow IMO).

Fish are generally bigger south of the zoo, but between sarcee trail and the zoo can be great because it's fished less.

Just my thoughts, some people may agree/disagree. Good luck!

Sam
