Fishing the Bow in the winter

[Dennisg]

Hi guys, which area of the Bow opens all year round? I look at the regs kinda confusing with to many sections.

Can somebody kindly share where does it start and where it end in terms of bridges etc...

Are Policeman and Mackinnon flats opens all year round?

Thanks!

I got it lol.

From the Western Headworks Diversion (W.H.D.) Weir downstream to the Carseland Weir (includes 500 m of the Highwood River and the 3 Carburn Park Ponds) but excluding all waters in the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary (see Inglewood Bird Sanctuary) – Open all year.
Apr. 1 to Mar. 31 – Trout limit 1 under 35 cm; All Trout over 35 cm must be released; Mountain Whitefish limit 5 over 30 cm; Bait Ban.

The river usually freezes over a bit below Policeman's. "Climate change" may allow for less ice than normal.
