Good access to the tributaries of the Athabasca up here can be difficult without a boat.
When I fish the openers at night i have never used the boat, but I'm thinking maybe Mountain rapids this year- go up in the evening and come back in the morning!
Gotta check the regs and days , I guess!
Oh, one more point -the best gear is CHEAP GEAR for up here on the Athabasca and its tributaries!
it's a delta system up hear and very silty, and some rivers like the Mackay and Ells have lots of bitumen floating in the water from the banks!
