RiverPeople Guides is a small, guiding business that runs guided fishing trips in Calgary, Alberta, and Patagonia. With Captain Osman Hamzic as your guide, you can look forward to a memorable time in places that include the Rocky Mountain streams as well as the upper and lower Bow River, truly sights to behold. You will find available packages for both regular drift boat trips, as well as jet boat
and wading trips. RPG consists of 5 guides who have decades of fishing experience and we can guide up to 10 people. While Bow River is certainly beautiful, as you can see from the photos, nothing compares to actually seeing the landscape in person. The upper Bow River is an especially scenic part filled with wildlife and breathtaking vistas. The lower Bow River, on the other hand, is the place to go if you’re looking to catch some world-class Trout. Captain Osman is a passionate fly fisherman and will be happy to exchange tips and tricks with all his guests. The price of any given trip includes fly fishing gear, PFDs, coaching, snacks and non alcoholic drinks and shuttle service. You will need to bring a standard province license, as well as a pair of polarized sunglasses and a hat. If you prefer using your own gear, feel free to bring your own fly fishing gear or spin casters and artificials (a strict ‘no live bait’ policy is in force). You will be served a delicious hot lunch on the riverbank on full day trips and, if requested, on jet boat trips.

Bow and Arrow Cast. 🏹🎣 for your Close-quarter battles with trout. This technique requires finesse and accuracy, as the angler gracefully sends the fly into the perfect spot.
Share your experiences with this unique cast in the comments!

Some waters are so clear that if you are not standing 50’ back away from the water you will spook them.

One of the questions I frequently get asked while guiding is, does it bother you when we are catching fish and you are not. My answer has always been the same. No it doesn't. I honestly enjoy watching my clients catch fish just as mush as if I was catching it myself. When I observe someone else's excitement, joy and the gain in confidence due to the improved casting or new knowledge gained on a specific method of fishing or how to read the water when searching for the big ones is simply astounding for me. In the below video I had one of my clients on who took out his dad for his 90th birthday (my oldest client). Listening to his genuine laugh every time we would catch fish and what his son secretly told me is something I will never forget. He said due to his dads post surgery pain life quality has tarnished tremendously in the last few years, and he doesn't remember seeing his dad this happy in a very long time. This all made sense to me why he was wiping his tears a few times when I looked back to check on him. Nothing but happy tears as I am writing this. www.RiverPeopleGuides.com #flyfishingguides #love #healthylifestyle #bowriverfishing #yyc #alberta #river #rainbowtrout
