Default Anyone from Airdrie?

We bought a place in Southwinds and I like to walk the long pathway behind Windsong every night where a creek with a few ponds along it are (near the baseball diamonds). I notice a ton of fish jumping in the ponds and the creek itself, what are they and can they be fished?. I'm assuming this creek attaches to the one in Bayside by the 7/11 and Breathe Yoga, but I haven't followed it down that far yet. I've seen lots of fish jumping in Bayside as well, but never anyone fishing.

Weird. I would assume its probably just suckers or something if those ponds are for storm run off, but no clue how they'd get in there if that's the case. Nose creek is the creek that runs through Bayside with the houses backing on to it, right? Can that be fished?.

I live behind Kimmer, and have no idea how fish can survive, it's so gross with the weeds and garbage, and very low...

Yea I've heard about that then, I figured that was somehow connected to Bayside. The main ones I'm talking about are below

Just south of the ball diamonds I see a ton of fish jumping every night


And in the middle of the pic theres a bunch of Canals/Channels where people canoe, etc and have their own docks and I also see a ton of fish jumping here
