Well the 2011 season has pretty well come to a end at Bow River Adventures ,
and what a season it was for good big fish over 20 inches , even better then last year , the dry fly season was stellar
and the hopper and stone season was wicked good , lots of trophy browns taken on dry's this year , the total of browns
over 20 inches to the net and taped was roughly 143 , best was a 27 incher and we lost a couple that i think would of been
around 28 or 29 , best day of the season was 8 browns and 4 rainbows over the 20 inch mark caught by Paul and
Bob ,
The
rainbows this year in my opinion have come up in numbers also , 127 , those fish that go 20 inches or above seemed
to be in better condition also this season , best rainbow for the 2011 season was a 24 1/4 inch buck caught by
Kurt from Maine USA
