Where to find bull trout on the kakwa??
Before you say anything, here me out. Ive fly fished lots before, caught plenty of rainbows, brookies, and just today a bunch of grayling on the kakwa. However i told myself im ready for bigger game, and i wanted to try bull trout on the fly. So i outfitted myself with a 9'6 8wt rod with a sinking tip floating line and some size 4 streamers. But yesterday i was skunked on the kakwa river, fished the deepest water i could find but no cigar. I understand their behavior and their diet, but it seems like the fishing can be hit or miss.
-could the river be too low at this time of year? Do they leave the kakwa for the smokey system by now?
-are they just being held up in very specific pools? And would you be willing to disclose where to look for them? (Starting point highway 40 bridge).
-do they feed more earlier in the season?
Any tips are much appreciated. Im willing to disclose my new grayling honey hole on the kakwa river for good information on kakwa bulls.
