According to long time anglers, there is a big difference between ‘fishing’ and ‘catching’. Fishing refers to the attempt to have one of our Piscean friends grab on to your bait; catching is the act of having said fish available for photo opportunities or as the evening entree. The area near Drumheller offers at least four distinct possibilities for those of you looking for great ‘fishing’ opportunities within a one hour drive. Two of those spots are located within Starland County and are operated and maintained by contracted employees. The McLaren Dam Recreational area offers users potable water, communal kitchens and well defined campsites.
