People are crossing the ice at Riverhurst but the DOH has not opened it yet so its crossing at your own risk right now.
go to taxidermy, mount it on the wall

no nets broke in a while, there keeping close eyes on them once the ice starts to break up as for knowing if anyone is catching them I cant tell you that cause I dont know.

they must have lost some fish as of lately because we have been seeing trout less than a foot in length underneath us...and quite a few of them...we asked the boys at the nets and up at the office but they had no clue as to what or where they have come from.??????????????

There is natural rainbow reproduction in Diefenbaker, so the small trout could be resident offspring, or they could be fish hatched up river in the Bow who have found their way to Dief.  Remember, they stock Dief with rainbows who are capable of reproducing if they can find a suitable place.
