11th April 2009

Miramichi River Conditions:

A check this date from Doaktown to Hayesville finds some up river stretches clear of ice, however those stretches are few and far between and there is still a lot of ice through Priceville and above the Porter Cove Bridge with a jam at Porter Cove & Hayesville.

Although the days have been nice the nights have been cold with a little ice movement after 1 PM . Water levels have dropped and unless there is a rise in water it is unlikely to see any significant ice movement.

As for fishing, in this area I doubt the ice will be out before the 15th of April and even if it is the river will require a few days to clear up.
