Today saw the temperature drop slightly, still hot but bearable. Believe it or not we saw some fish movement in the morning - but when the fishing is slow we watch the "tubers" float down river by the dozen. It must seem like a pinball game to the salmon moving upstream who continually run into the rubber tubes floating down. Tubing is a nice economical way to enjoy a float on the river and it seems to have caught on as we see large number of every variety daily.
Our recent guests took full advantage of the river, the two teenage girls turned into mermaids and it was nice to see them enjoying tubing and swimming. We are awaiting the arrival of guests from the U.S.A. tomorrow and hope that they will get to see some good down east hospitality.
I still see a few fishermen on the river but with the current water temperature playing a fish would stress it out badly and probably kill it so my recommendation would be go tubing - or make this your golf time.
I note a couple of comments in Doug Underhill's River Report and today's gleaner that would interest fishermen frequenting the area & will leave the research to you.
We are awaiting hurricane Bill, who may brush us or not around this coming Sunday. At this time the path takes in the Southwest Corner of New Brunswick.
