- Timing: they describe the St. Mary as closed Apr 1-June 15, often better to start July 1 or later after runoff, and productive into about late September before shifting focus to the Kootenay River .
- Licence reminder: their FAQ tells clients the St. Mary is Class II when open and requires both a BC freshwater licence and classified-waters licence .
- Ethic: they state a catch-and-release policy on guided St. Mary trips for native trout .
- Use it for: booking/licence logistics, current Kimberley-area advice, and mainstem St. Mary trips. Do not use it as proof of guide coverage on small tributaries like Redding Creek unless they publish or confirm that directly.
