A guided trip in S.W, Alberta is a
fly fishing experience of a lifetime, and very convenient from our fly
shop in Fernie B.C., which is only 45 minutes away from the world class
Crowsnest River. If variety is the spice of life S.W. Alberta is definitely
the spice rack, with 5 species of trout, the largest catch and release
zone on the planet, the trout rich waters we guide on range from High
Country Cutthroat streams to prairie tail waters that big Browns call
home.
The guide staff of The Elk River Angler
has spent countless hours fishing and exploring these waters and by combining
local Knowledge, EXPERIENCED guides and use of private water we have
become the guide service of choice for the discriminating angler during
their visit to S.W. Alberta.
"Dear Dave,
This is to thank you for the really fantastic fishing trip which we
enjoyed recently. Two of the guys with me spend more than half the year
in Jackson Hole and Colorado as their primary residence. They fish many
of the streams and rivers in both places. The best compliment to the
quality of the fishing and guide service represented by the Elk River
and the service your company provides is the first thing they wanted
me to do before we left Fernie was to make reservations for this coming
year. We were impressed. The fishing is as good as I have ever seen
anywhere. We are looking forward to this year."

of '2000', going back w/eight this fall... Can't wait...."

The Area
The magnificent rivers and streams
of southwestern Alberta are truly one of fly fishing's final frontiers.
Famous in its own right, the Crowsnest has attracted much attention in
recent years. The Oldman, Waterton, Belly, St Mary's and their tributaries
offer unmeasured miles of quality trout stream. Click

A little further north of these rivers, the Elk
River Angler offers an opportunity for the visiting angler to meet the
awesome trout of the Bow
River
