Most years there's a lot of water to fish for the April 1 opening. It's April 6 and few reaches of any water have opened. Snaky braids of the upper Red Deer, Clearwater, Brazeau, and N Saskatchewan Rivers are open. Poke around and you'll find the typical open water on Shunda Cr near the beaverdam. Sure, Stauffer & Clear Cr are open but get there first or fish follow up. There's a smattering of midges, a few olives, and the usual early stoneflies on sunny, warm days.
This fishing report should be a wee more positive a week from now, after we've had +10C and perhaps some wind to really evaporate the moisture.
Cheers
