Fishing this area dropped off this morning.
Leigh picked up a grilse and the rest of the boys tied into some salmon. I picked up a nice 37 1/4" salmon around noon, took me down river further than I've been for a few years. Fish are all over the river at the moment, seem to be running individually not concentrated schools as in the past few days.
Doaktown/Blissfield reporting decent fishing.
Some folks stopped in from Dungarvon, reporting good fishing.

3'd July 2012
Turning into a hot day, water is dropping nicely. Allan hit the water around 8am and had released two fish before 8:30 am, he tied into 3 more before taking a breather.
Corey was able to catch a nice Hardy Saint John reel and rod from 4 or 5 feet of water, he did mention the rod was just a cheap one (Coleman's).

Happy Canada Day
Overnight thunderstorm kept the water high and riled but we are seeing fish, especially along the shore. The water dropped trhis afternoon and the boys picked up a 9-10# salmon around 8PM. Salmon & grilse landed. If we can get a few clear days fishing should inprove.

25th June 2012
Rains have brought the river to a nice level and temperature, more rain perdicted. We have had rods on the river for the past 3 days with no fish. I do have confirmation of a 10# salmon being taken at Salmon Brook, so at least one got by. Counting stations are reporting low numbers, only a fraction of last years count.

21st June 2012
Rods on the water for past couple of days, not a sign of a salmon. Down river reports are the same with the exception of the "dream catchers". High day time temperatures are driving the water temp up and seeing the water level drop. One would be hard pressed to run a canoe through the rapids at this point without getting out and walking.
Calling for rain through this weekend, looking forward to it. if you are going fishing take a cold pack and deck of cards.
