Guiding
Shop manager Mike Mailey, a born and raised Calgarian, has guided on the Bow
River for the last 30 years. Mike only hires the most experienced, friendly and
helpful guides who really cater to the customer’s needs. If dry fly fishing is
your passion then owner Dave Cunnings or Mike can guide you for an adventure you
won’t soon forget. Dry fly specialists with a knack of finding rising trophies
can give you shots that the average angler dreams of. With 123 miles of
available water in the Bow, we will find you fish.
Guided Float Trips
Guided Trips have a daily rate of $550 plus GST and include:
- Full day float for one or two anglers in our Mackenzie style drift boats
- Expert level guide
- Deli style lunch and non alcoholic beverages.
We would recommend using your own fishing equipment but can provide rental
equipment if necessary. Pick ups and drop offs can be arranged – please contact
us at the store. We require a 50% deposit at time of booking. Fishing license,
flies and gratuities are not included.
Items to bring on a float trip include: a
rain jacket, warm clothes, a hat, sunscreen, bug spray, polarized glasses,
fishing rod, fishing reel (5 – 7 weight with floating and sink tip lines), and
wading gear.
Walk and Wades
For a Southern Alberta walk and wade you need not
look further than SouthBow. With some of the best private access available we
will take you to the least pressured juiciest water around. We live for this
stuff, so let us show you a great time! Call for availability and pricing.
