Fishing in the Canadian Rockies

A  fishery much overlooked by Fly-fishers fishes particularly well at the South end in spring time, in the area of the Kananaskis River inflow. The mud flats of this Delta are exposed to a tremendous amount of heat prior to snowmelt and as the level of the lake increases with inflows of the K.River, much like a dessert after a rainstorm these superheated mud flats explode with aquatic vegetation,

MIDGE and CADDIS flies adorn the table so to speak, and the lakes residents gravitate to the feast at this end of the Lake. Again small personal watercraft are ideal, while wading is possible. Use extreme caution while wading, as many of what were small valleys between these "Mud Dunes" while they were above water now become deep troughs most being better than 10 feet submerged.
