I don't know of anything other then stocked ponds where a guy can fly fish around the Edmonton area.

I used to go out west for fly fishing. I have fished the Ram, Hummingbird Creek, the East Prairie creek, the Burland and Stoufer Creek. caught trout on dry flies in every one of them. And a few Mountain Whitefish.
Never caught a fish worth keeping though.

I often thought of trying flies on the Red Deer river. Just east of the city there is some good fishing with a few Trout and a lot of Goldeye.
But I never tried it.
I did fish that part of the Red Deer but with spinners. I also had a severe allergic reaction from eating fish I caught there. Only time in my whole life I ever had hives. Don't know what in those fish caused it and never want to find out. Once was more then enough.
