25th September 2008

This is exactly what the day was like, saw lots of fish, threw everything at
them, nothing taking.

Made a run into the Dungarvon Counting Station, 860 salmon in the holding
pool, largest around 30 lb.
75 trout some in 3.5 - 4 lb range. Well over twice 2007 count, normally
they open the gates the first of moose season but will be holding for a few
days yet this year.

This year they have 2500 fingerlings to release and saw the first of their
reared Salmon return which is very positive as they were concerned with no
previous returns.

Still a great day to be alive on the Miramichi. Our guest's comment were a
bad day onb the river is better than a good day at the office.
