After 2 days of filming on the bow with the LL Bean show I still wasn't satisfied that Tim had seen the true quality of bow river trout so Jason took my half day trip for the morning with Todd so I could get Tim out early in the morning before his flight and to get some still photos for both the Echo and LL Bean catalogue. We ripped streamers looking for that 1 big fish, as the city stretch has some of the biggest fish in this river. Tim took a nice little brown but not the pig we were looking for. Kash joined us part way down the river and we were fortunate enough to get a casting lesson from Tim. It's pretty cool when you get to learn something new from one of the best there is in the sport. I learned more in 15 minutes of instruction from Tim then I might have gotten in several years of trial and error. We finally found a bank that had snouts on it where Tim got to see big bow river fish feeding super tight to the bank in shallow clear water being extremely cautious not to give away their position.
