How is the bow right now BTW? Is it clear enough to catch anything besides dishwashers?
The Bow is washed out around Exshaw, but did not look too bad in CGY today when I drove over it - it is higher than normal.

Current Report
Flows on the Bow are rising and the river has some color. Fishing has been fair to good with some fish rising to caddis in the afternoons and evenings. Hopefully, we will get a week or two before runoff starts to kick in, but it looks like it 's going to be upon us very soon, the Bow at Banff has doubled in volumn. The river just opened today from Bearspaw Reservoir to the weir at the zoo.
