21st July 2009

We haven't had any fishermen in for the past couple of days. (1) salmon H&R yesterday morning, couple hooked and lost, spattering of fish throughout the day as the heat shot up.

This morning saw a run go through around 8am, nothing was taking, another hot day, water dropped and water temperature rose. Saw no fish in the evening. Weatherman calling for showers for next few days, there is lots of water if we can cool it down maybe the fishing will pick up.

It's amazing how two days of sunshine can slow the fishing down.

On another note we notice the lack of "red wing blackbirds" where we used to see flocks there are only one or two birds, we have significantly less hummingbirds this year and haven't seen a bat, the latter were always cruising the river as dusk. This goes along with the decline of Gaspereau & green eels in this area ..................something is changing?
