    July Slab of the Month Entry: Bow Bull

    Chum reader Timbre Pringle was out fishing on the Bow River this past Sunday.  The fishing was slow until she tossed a pink marabou leach on and caught this Bull Trout.  All kinds of good this is indeed.

    Calgary, a City Where Trout Fishing Does Not Go to Die

    The name "Bow" refers to the reeds that grew along its banks and which were used by the local First Nations peoples to make bows; the Peigan name for the river is "Makhabn", meaning "river where bow weeds grow"

    Generally, the demands and detritus of a budding metropolis spell the death (or at least the considerable degradation) of a trout stream. But in the case of the Bow, Calgary’s swelling population — and, more specifically, its wastewater treatment needs — have helped create a world-class fishery in the 30 or so miles of river from the city east to the rural town of Carseland.
