Well that’s a mouthful and a half….wasn’t really sure how to
word it but there you have it…..we have a fishing paradise here in Fernie and
men, women and children come from all over the world to test our waters. Fish
stories are exchanged daily over mugs of steaming lattés and cappuccinos….about
the one that got away…it was how big?? Now in all fairness, I am not a seasoned
fisherwoman…..in fact I can’t quite recall my last fishing expedition but I’m
sure it involved dragging the bottom of a lake, yards of tangled fishing line
and expletives not fit to post. I know, I know….I need to at least give it a go
now that I live here! My son is heading out this way on the weekend to do some
fishing and he invited me to go with him…I told him I’d sit on the shore and
read a book….and cheer when he reels in the big one! Such a good Mum!!
The weather is ideal right now for fishing…the days are
still warm and sunny and although the nights are cooler, fall fishing is
fantastic! I’ve even noticed some new hatches of little flying creatures stuck
in my teeth when I’m out for a run by the river…I’m sure they have some name
like Baitis or October Caddis. You can venture out on your own, but to find that
perfect deep pool or sweet foam line, you’d be best to take a guided fishing
adventure with one of our experienced and professional guiding companies. You
can choose from Fernie Fly
Fishing, Kootenay
Fly Shop and Guiding Co., Elk
River Guiding Company or Fernie Wilderness Adventures – they can all provide you with
one of your most memorable fishing expeditions ever and help you reel in the big
one that didn’t get away!
Now after a day on the river wrestling with “Fishzilla”,
you’ll probably want to rest those tired, aching muscles. Why not book a spa
treatment at our very own King
Fir Spa. Choose a Restorative & Relaxing Classic Massage or a Sports
Massage or any one of the wonderful services we offer. Then check in to one of
our cozy log cabins or condo suites with your own private hot tub and soak the
night away. We still have some great summer accommodation specials
– don’t miss out!
So as summer continues to grace our valley with all it’s splendor, the leaves
are starting to turn and before we know it the snow will fly! Christmas and New
Year’s are not that far away. Book today! What are you waiting for? If you visit
us for a Fernie Christmas, don’t forget to ask about our Christmas Package
including a tree, ornaments, tree topper, tree skirt and the best thing of
all….some of my world famous shortbread cookies!
Let us take care of your vacation – it’s what we
do!
