Kids fishing in kananaskis area?
 
I'm at mt lorette ponds with my 3 year old and I'm trying to get her her first fish. But I can't see a single sign of any fish here and the water is crystal clear.

Any suggestions of where else to try? Obviously at 3 her attention span is lacking hence I thought these stocked ponds would be good to get her a fish and keep her interested. But I guess this is fished out?
Thanks

I believe that Allen Bill Pond has recently been stocked. Hope you guys catch something!

Near Bragg creek? If so that's 1 1/2 hours from us. We are right near nakiska. Any other ideas?
Thank you

Nothing else comes to mind for the area you are in, sorry.

Anyone else have suggestions?

Sibbald might be a possibility.

Should be a fairly quick drive from there as well. Google maps says about 1/2 hour. Head North on highway 40, take a right onto highway 68 (just past barrier dam), keep an eye on your LHS for Sibbald meadows pond (should be about ~7 km in after turning from highway 40).

Good luck finding that first fish for her!

Yeh that was my next stop. But we didn't have time today. We will try it tomorrow morning. I was thinking those were the only options around here.

Mt lorette was stocked with 800 in may. Sibbald with 2000. So hopefully some are left. Filling that we will try Mitford when we are next in cochrane. But I've heard it hasn't been stocked yet as the pump is broken.
Thanks for the pointers.
