I went fishing with a friend today. We headed out to the Castle
Wilderness, in southwestern Alberta. The area is beautiful, and is about
an hour and a half drive from my home. The scenery was awesome; the area
is forested, many wildflowers are in bloom, and there was no one around.
We had the stream to ourselves.

We walked along the stream for about 6 1/2 hours, followed by a 10
minute hike to a road, and a half hour walk back to the car. I was
pretty beat. All in all a good day.

Thanks for the report, Tim. I still hope to fish the Castle one of
these days. So how have the river levels been this year?

As to Dave's question about bull trout in Alberta: They are
protected, and have been for quite a while
(since 1995?).

And Albertans definitely have gas.


Chuck Vance (that was the question, right?)

Water levels are pretty good. I think a little higher than they had been
at this time in previous years. Its been a bit of a cool, wet summer,
but I think that may be over now.
