Default Advice Beginner, Float Bow River

Advice for beginner
I have a small 2 person inflatable boat that I put a tube frame on.
I'd like to try it on the Bow River.
Can someone tell me which sector is the calmest for a flyfishing beginner?

Thanks

Mauser

If you could get a buddy to drop you @ Legacy Island you could float to Wyndham park & load out there.

If you do decide to do legacy to Johnson island, just keep in mind of where the main boat launch is located and how you should approach it, so that you don't end up too far out in the main current heading towards the weir if you're not a strong rower.
