Electrofishing on the Bow River - Sept 12-16
Alberta Sustainable Resource Development(ASRD)-Fisheries Management Branch will be electrofishing on the Bow River between the WID Weir and Carseland Weir from September 12-16, 2011.
Biologists are collecting important data to better understand fish populations and to make informed decisions on how to better manage the Bow River fishery for every angler's enjoyment.
If you see ASRD staff electrofishing in the area you are fishing, please exit the river immediately until crews have passed.
Please be assured that staff operating these vessels are highly trained and consider angler safety as paramount.
If you have any questions about this project, please contact Paul Christensen, Senior Fisheries Biologist, in Calgary at (403) 297-7199

All lined up – for fishing & harvesting
 |
| All photos: Bow River Shuttles |
The trucks and trailers were lined up along the gravel bar at McKinnon Flats this morning, launching their boats for a great day of fly fishing on the Bow River.
High up on the ridge, a few hundred yards from the McKinnon gate, the combines were lined up, preparing for a day of harvesting.
Our cold, late spring caused all farming activity to be several weeks behind. Swathing and combining have only begun in recent days. In most years, we would have seen this starting in mid-August.

Water allocation in Alberta...do we have enough to go around?
