Would definitely recommend this trip. 10 stars.
We did two trips in a row. One day for pike and the next for walleye. We did the four-hour sunset trip, pike & walleye trip 4-8. And the next day did the 3-hour sunset trip 6-9.
My husband really wanted to fish while we were visiting Calgary and wanted to keep the fish to eat. I was dreading this fishing expedition. I am not much of a fisherwoman.
The fishing regulations allow 1 pike per person per day and within a certain length. There are only a few lakes you can fish and keep the fish. We went to a lake 80 miles from Calgary to fish for walleye. Next time we go, we will book a hotel closer to the lake.
I have never liked fishing, but now I am looking forward to going back.
Captain Troy was a great instructor. He is personable, knowledgeable, patient, helpful, and funny. He has a great boat and equipment. You just have to show up and maybe dress in layers, wear tennis shoes, bring a hat, sunscreen, and water.
Would definitely recommend this trip with Captain Troy, especially for people who have a partner that doesn’t exactly like fishing! We caught a lot of fish both days. We got our pike limit of 1 fish per person - we caught 2 fish we could keep and 1 legal-size walleye the next day we kept. If we could have kept all the fish, we could have filled the boat. We had a great time and my husband now has a wife who will happily fish with him.
Thanks, Captain Troy.
Would definitely recommend this trip. 10 stars.
