Way more chrony fisherman there educating them. And those lakes have a lot of feed in them so they have a variety of food to source thus making them even more picky I think.
I know times chrony fishing in lakes where I live and fish in AB can make anybody feel like a pro. They'll take anything you throw at them. Less feed and hatches and less educators..
Good to know. Yeah I think you are right with the educated trout in BC. It even seems it depends on the lake in BC. The smalled higher pressured lakes the fish will grab and drop the chroni so fast. Other lakes that float is gone, they'll dray your whole rod down.

If it even opens up again after this post COVID area when I am back home in AB I'll have to try some Chironomid fishing.
