Default Little Bow Provincial Park

Any words of wisdom for that area?

My buddy and I spent a few hours out near the dock last week and only caught 5 small eyes... Are there other areas we can check out within the park? Anyone else had success there?

Fiahing from the dock is great in the morning and evening with hook and smelt!

North shore, east of the cabins down there?

Haven't fished there personally, and have no idea how much shoreline there is, but in order to stay away from the craziness of the docks, I would try to venture over there.

I wasn't able to find much shoreline from the park... I'll have to venture out there again this weekend. Thanks for the suggestions!

Like I said fishing from the dock is amazing with hook and smelt, you can catch tons in a short period of time!

Tried smelts at the shoreline close to the dock. Didn't have much luck till I switched over to minnows. I'll need to try again.

Theres a reason more fish are caught from the dock then from shore beside the dock. Do some research on the water body and depth and whatnot and youll see why.

Fishing from the dock is fine if you don't mind fishing beside 23 other people plus all the boat traffic...

Think weekdays would be any better at the docks?
