Default heat wave fish kill

Sounds like some of the local (Edmonton) trout lakes and other bodies of water may be in serious trouble this summer. CFRN had a story about fish dying at Muir Lake and the Pembina River. Some people are going to check out Hasse and Spring Lakes today.

Just finished listening to the Orvis podcast that came out a few days ago. Tom Rosenbauer was talking to a biologist about warm water and how it affects trout. Thought I’d bring it up to my fellow flyfishers since we’re having a hot summer. Give it a listen. Lots of good info.

Yes bring a thermometer with you. Anything around 20 C (68 F) time to go home!
