Court in Rocky Mountain House, over early so head to Ming’s, with plans to meet Robert later. Check out Prairie, quite high and brown – dredge a BCN through the home pool and give up. Off to Stauffer and the B. for Wildlife Bridge. Slow day, miss one; am ready to leave when Robert arrives. He suggests we try the slow stretch further down. Into the willow jungle we go – and it’s very interesting. I only catch one fish but miss a couple of good browns, as does Robert (Green Drake). Break my thermometer – shit!
