Part of driving the Alaska Highway lure for me was fishing my way north.
Every region has their favorite fishing flys and lures. Somewhere on our journey, in response to questions about nearby fishing I was given a list of suggested Fresh Water Lures Used in the Yukon. I would think these same lures should also work in northern British Columbia and Alberta.

When purchasing a British Columbia fishing license in Dawson Creek, I discovered US Citizens are considered as non-resident Alien. An 8-day Alien license ran $50.00 CAD. Knowing I'd be passing through British Columbia again I went with an Annual Alien license that ran $80.00 CAD
In the Yukon, US Citizens are considered garden variety non-residents. The Yukon offers a 6-day license for $20.00 CAD. Knowing I'd be in the Yukon more than 6 days total, I went with their Annual fishing license for $35.00 CAD. A very reasonable price I thought.
A fishing license may be purchased online or you can locate a license agent at these links.

I hope this information is useful for those who want to do a bit of fishing along the way.
