SPECIAL THANK YOU! To Mark Edwards of Oldman Outfitters for hosting us. www.flyfishinginalberta.com/

Fly fishing from a raft or drift boat happens FAST! When you first step into a boat and begin fishing, you look down at the rocks and realize “Holy S***!” you are moving quickly! And that can be intimidating. Looking ahead, planning, knowing when and where to cast and fish is a Reading Trout Water Skill that takes some getting used to. We work through an introduction to it in this video as we move through British Columbia’s Elk River, dry fly fishing cutthroat trout. Amelia & Dave then work a bit of water, searching for cutthroat trout willing to rise to the dry fly.
