Booked a morning out with this outfit.. got Scott as out guide. Awesome time fishing, with all the views. Scott was very knowledgable, and we hit several spots the whole time, getting good bites. Scott went over and above on our booking. Highly recommended

We had a great time with our guide Stephan. The fish were a bit elusive on Saturday but Stephan kept trying different methods to no avail. He was very knowledgeable about the lake and we were very interested. Catching or not we had a great day and couldn’t have had a better guide. I would recommend this trip to others.

I made a reservation with Mr Anders, where he demanded to pay in cash to avoid the credit card fees. My big mistake.
He simply called me on the day before my reservation saying it was canceled, without any reason or explanation.
It was a desaster for my kids and I had no alternative to substitute it.
For sure he had a better offer and simply ignored his original commitment.
Really unprofessional.

Anders took two friends and me fishing on the last day of the season in 2019. It was a great experience! We had all fished before but were rusty - Anders showed us how to set our lines and set hooks. We each caught at least one fish and boating on the lake was beautiful. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to fish at Lake Minnewanka!

Unfortunately, did not catch any fish. On the other hand, our guide Crawford was a knowledgeable fisherman and knew a great deal about Lake Minnewanka. Fishing that day with Crawford is definitely one we had to use as a learning experience as we lost a fish that was giving us trouble, "one that got away."

We went fishing with John as our guide and I can’t say enough about our experience! It was incredible! John was so informative and patient and went above and beyond to help us catch fish and experience the full effect of Lake Minnewanka! I would recommend John and Banff Fishing Unlimited to anyone!

We had a great time fishing Lake Minnewanka on August 13, 2018. We had John as our captain and he was very helpful, full of jokes, and very knowledgeable about the lake and fisheries. We tried for Lake Trout for a while without much luck, but then went shallower and John was able to put us on a Rocky Mountain whitefish hole and we caught over a dozen of those. Saw a large lake trout try and snag a small Rocky off my line while reeling in, so they are definitely down there! We will 100% be back fishing the next time we travel to Banff (which will be very soon.)

We were unsure what to expect but we had a brilliant morning! We are a big family - 2 adults and 4 children - all boys ranging from 13 down to 6. Our captain, Scott, was incredibly patient....even when the 6 year old was casting his line all over the place! Scott had a wonderful sense of humour and a relaxed manner making it such a fun morning for all. I would thoroughly recommend this for a fiamily - the boys rate this as their top experience in our 3 weeks in Canada! Thank you so much to Scott and Banff Fishing Unlimited!

We chose to float down the Bow River with Phil as our guide. We visited a fabulous sandwich shop/bakery before we began, and fished for 8 hrs. It was a fun adventure even though we didn't catch any large sized fish which is always a bonus & I definitely have become more skilled in flyfishing in windy conditions. Phil was a lot of fun, lots to tell, and all around an awesome guide!

We fished Lake Minnewanka and our captain was John. He was very informative and pointed out a lot of wildlife in the area. We did catch one 3 pound lake trout. We didn't think we'd catch a lot of fish because it was early in the season. That didn't bother us because the lake was beautiful and we had a great morning with John!
