14th October 2012

Scott with trout on in first snowfall 2012/13
High water, cold wind and very few salmon makes for a sad end to the 2012 fishing season with one day left.  Scott and Shaun have touched a fish or two but this is definitely the worst salmon season we have encountered for many years.  We had strong Spring fishing, no June Run at all, a little over two weeks in July and there it ended, the few being taken in this area had been in the river all summer.  Reports from ALL over seem too be consistent in that the salmon runs are way down, both Atlantic and Pacific.  Just speaking with fishermen returning from Gaspe, nothing, Matane, nothing, Cains basically nothing, Dungarvon count way down, Upper Reaches of the Miramichi nothing fresh.  Capilano, salmon but count way down.
