I’m jumped ship to PNW fly fishing and need some recommendations (AB/BC Banff Trip)

Just Hatched
What’s up, everyone?! Travis, aka T-Bag, recommended I join this site since everyone left WFF a bit ago. I have been part of that site since 14. I’m now 24. 10 YEARS since I started fly fishing, and life is quite different now. I live in Vermont; I know, BIG MOVE, but life’s been good. I’ve been a professional cinematographer/photographer for a few years and haven’t looked back.

Anyways, I’m heading to Banff, Yoho National Park for a week in early July for a wedding and am looking to catch Bull Trout and Westslope since I never have (tried on the Metolius but sadly lost what I believe to be my first Bull a couple of years back😢) I’d love any recommendations for the area to catch those two species. Thanks again, guys.
PS, I wasn’t able to get in the fly fishing film tour, but your guys’s support last year meant a lot. All of my films are available on YouTube now and so you can feel free to check it out. I’ll add a link.

---And that was my first native Brook Trout I caught 10 minutes from my house here in VT. Thx, Kaden https://youtube.com/@kaden_swart

Welcome! I moved to the PNW from Vermont (where I grew up) and did a lot of fishing there, especially in the Winooski. Feel free to PM me to talk about VT anytime, I miss the trout fishing there!
 
You did better than most people fishing the Metolius. Most do not even get a nice big tug...

Welcome to PNWFF from the other place...
