Quinn Soonias knows the majestic Bow River like few others. After all, his Cree Ancestors lived on its banks for millennia, relying on its life-giving resources. Now he leads fly-fishing trips through his company Drift Out West. He offers three different packages as well as custom experiences for solo adventure, family groups, or corporate events. He provides everything, including all the dry flies, streamers, and nymphs, which he ties himself, and hopes all his guests enjoy not just a good day fishing, but the healing benefits of spending time in nature.
