Graham and Bruce, regular guests of ours from Calgary, joined us today for a float from Police to Mac. The water was still high and had a lot of color in it after the big rains and opening of the dam on Monday, but that's perfect for streamer fishing which Graham loves to do.
Unfortunately the fish didn't get the memo that streamer fishing should be great. The river fished tough today, streamers were not on fire at all, could be the constant water level fluctuations the last few days have pushed the fish off the bank. The weather was hot and the fishing was cold....not the combination we were looking for. Both Graham and Bruce got fish, and some nice fish at that but given some of the epic days Graham has had with us and how well the river fished before the rain today definitely qualifies as a tough go. That being said its always a pleasure to have Graham out on the water with us, its always a riot, I just wish we could've got Graham into the type of numbers and fishing we had last week...but I guess that's fishing for you.
