                                          Rates and Trip Information
Bow River Fly Fishing Adventures operates as a complete guide and outfitter.  We offer a variety of fly fishing packages to give you the trip of a lifetime.  Choose from Float Trips, Walk and Wade Trips, Lake Trips, and hike-in Alpine Lake Trips.  Ask about our Corporate Packages, Family Packages,  and Multi-Day Bookings.

All trips include flies, tippet, all of your gear (rods, waders, wading boots etc.), casting instruction, and food and drinks based on the duration of the trip.  If you have any allergies or food preferences (e.g. veggie, diet soda), please discuss this with us prior to the trip in order for us to ensure your satisfaction.  Please bring sunscreen, bug spray, polarized glasses, a rain coat, a rain hat, and an insulation layer.  This is Calgary, and the weather can change very quickly and dramatically!  Feel free to bring your favorite pair of waders, or your favorite fly rod.

Beginners are welcome as casting lessons are included and basic fly fishing techniques will be covered.  Steamers, Nymph's and of course Dry Fly's will be discussed and proper techniques will be shown.

Family trips are encouraged, as bringing your son or daughter is a great way to introduce them to this great sport while passing down some of our heritage.

Trip Information

We offer a first class experience with great food, professional guides, and all the gear you require - including flies!  Pick-up time will vary according to weather, time of year, and recent fishing trends.  A typical full day will last 10 - 12 hours, while a typical half day will last up to 6 hours.  These times include travel time.  We can always adjust these times to suit your needs.

Float Trips
All Float Trips take place in a very comfortable Mackenzie style drift boat.  Our drift boats have padded front and rear seats, front and rear casting braces (knee locks), rod holders, and of course an extremely stable platform from which to cast.  Anglers will fish from the boat and from shore in the many secret spots along the way.  Your guide will help you choose between three sections on the breath taking Upper Bow River, or between  five sections on the world famous "Blue Ribbon" Lower Bow River.  Your guide will put you on fish with advice for which techniques and flies have been working lately for that particular section of river. 
Half day trips are great for the corporate businessman who works during the day, and wants to get out and entertain clients during the very productive evening fish.

Walk and Wade Trips
Walk and Wade Trips are designed for the angler who may want to learn certain parts of the river, for those who want to learn to read water better, and for those who just enjoy thoroughly covering good water and picking fish out one at a time from a productive hole or seam.  Clients can choose from a variety of rivers and streams in the region including the Upper Bow River, Lower Bow River, Oldman River, Sheep River, Highwood River, and Livingstone River to name only a few.  You can pursue Bull Trout, Rainbows, Browns, and Cutties.

Lake Trips
There is a plethora of beautiful lakes around Calgary, Canmore, and in Kananaskis Country.  Trips are available to hunt ferocious Northern Pike, beautifully unique Arctic Grayling, hard fighting Rainbows, evasive Browns, scrappy Brook Trout, eager native West Slope Cutthroat, and aggressive native Bull Trout.
Depending on the lake access and your preference, lake trips will be in either a boat, a float tube, or from shore.  Your guide will teach you about the feeding patterns for the fish you are pursuing, will instruct you in fly selection, and will show you various retrieval techniques to get those fish biting.
Lake Trips are a great way to take the family out to introduce them to fly fishing, or to just spend a day or a weekend with some friends.  Let us take care of the details for you so you can concentrate on the fishing and time spent with family and friends.
