Benalto trout pond.... maybe 50 km west of Red Deer, 200 yards north of HWy 11. It seems to me that it is at the benalto intersection. I remember a trout pond at Heritage Ranch from my child hood, not sure of it's condition these days. Bower ponds was stocked with trout in the past and some monster pike got in there a few years ago.

For what it is worth, once the river drops and clears up a bit, Goldeye are a ton of fun for both young and old.They seem to hang out near the surface and they will bite pretty much anything. I've eaten smoked Goldeye, it was good.
