Default Bowriver Half Day Float

Hi,

Looking for recommendations on a half day float on the Bowriver in July/August. Fly fished the bow lots, but never been on a float.

Please let me know who has had some positive experiences at a decent price.

Thank you!

Just got a boat a couple of months ago did some mods on it and it's ready to rock.Ill keep you in mind if you wanna come for a float with a rookie on the oars lol.I have a few friends and family that want to float but most times there be a empty seat.As for 1/2 day floats I would try to do the whole day because when we went at the end of the day I still wanted to be out.

Any of the above would be great if the certificate was for those shops and not FishTales

I was looking into the gift certificate mentioned. Is there a reason Fish Tales is not a good place to go with? Checked out there site. Seemed pretty good. Never done a float. What are the details behind your comment?
