Going to visit friends in Trochu soon and want to know what type of fish and grear needed for the Red Deer River near there. Any comments would be appreciated.

I fished alot around McKenzie Crossing, your friends should know where its at. Great goldeye fishing with pike and walleye in the mix. Fish east side of river north side of bridge. Not to sure about Tollman bridge but I'm sure there's at least some good goldeye there as well. Not to sure how dirty the river is with all this rain. I usually only fish for goldeye there using light tackle, try Panther martins, small Len thompsons and Mepps spinners. If you up a couple sizes on the spoons theres a good chance for some pike or walleye or sauger.
P.S. DON'T EAT THE FISH

Yesterday we tryed out by where blindman enters red deer river, and no such luck!! But the river is pretty dirty so could be one of the reasons, Cant see if Blindman actually gets much clearer but maybe some other day try out there, Or even by Joffre Bridge maybe? Dunno?
