Early fall fishing on the Miramichi. The most accurate report I can provide at this time is that there are plenty of fish, as the water remains a decent level and the water temperature in the high 60’s the salmon are constantly moving and not pooling. We are seeing runs of single and small schools of salmon quickly working though the pools with more showing in the morning. In the afternoon and evening you will see one, two or three fish showing in close proximity about every 15 minutes. We have thrown everything at them including small flys on 18 foot leaders with little success since last Tuesday although they did show a little interest when presented with small black trout dry fly’s by sinking them L
All the fish we are seeing are dark. It will be interesting to see if this continues for the next few weeks. We should be seeing more trout drop out of the streams back into the main river, may be the only fishing left unless a fresher run of salmon enter the river. I have not previously seen a similar salmon run pattern.
Had some friends return from the Dungarvon Friday afternoon, reported seeing lots of fish and tying into two. One of them (Earl) fell in, cell phone and all J
