There are good ones in there, but they are far and few between, i have fished the Battle in the Ponoka area for 28 years, since i was 6..lol. When i was younger it was an amazing fishery, and since elnino, it has never recovered, farm development and cattle damage caused major damage, not to mention the ALberta Hospital sewage treatment going into it..think of all the medication getting in there..brutal. Alot ofchanges have been made lately, and i am hoping for somewhat of a turn around. There are some Nice Pike still, and the Odd Walleye, but this is a fragile/marginal fishery at best.
