Small black stones still wandering, joined by the occassional golden stone and..get this Caddis..yep crazy. Shop is getting fully stocked, new Patagonia and  Fishpond products. Summitlake is  opening up slowly,Lee is stocked ...perfect time to be in the Pass. All the best, Susan

March already! Spring like conditions continue to provide excellent days on the Crow and Oldman. Both are still low and clear with small black stones roaming along the banks. We are again offering a discount till the end of the month on pre-season bookings. Please contact Alan or Susan (403-563-8510) if you'd like to take advantage of this offer. Shop is busy with new 2016 products rapidly filling shelves. Including Hardy and Fishpond. Tight Lines ! Sincerely, Susan

The weather continues to be mild with reasonable snow pack,so the Crow is perfect for winter stream fishing. Few anglers out ..small black stones on top or nymphing ,levels low and clear. The 2016 Hardy line up is available at the shop..excellent prices! Any more info? please give us a call  Wed-Sun 8-5 thanks, Susan

Thanks to all for another great summer. Florian joined us as a guide and did a great job.  Fishing continues to be well worth putting up with the lower temps , and occasional winds. New 2016 Hardy products arriving soon in the shop, and some warm and cool Patagonia gear is in place. Shop is open Wed - Sun from 8-5.

Rivers in great shape..low , clean and clear. BWO's , Caddis and PMD's the fav's right now. We are very happy about the new Castle Wilderness and Provincial park..many have worked for many years to see this happen in such a delicate and beautiful area. . Big sunny sky's ..perfect .

Crazy weather, crazy times. But the hatches and trout behaviour are as consistent as ever. We,ve had snow in the higher elevations, causing a bit of colour to the Oldman streams and mid crow sections. P.M.D's still a factor as B.W.O.'s are coming on strong with Caddis a close second. Very exciting news for the Castle area . A large designated Wilderness area with a Provincial park locked in encompassing the Lynxx , Carbondale and the upper tribs of the Castle. looks like excellent fishing ahead..sunshine , cooler temps in the streams and more open waters...all the best Susan crowsnestcafeandflyshop.ca
