The salmon run is peaking this week, with 170 grilse and 51 salmon in the trap yesterday in Millerton, which is close to an all time record. Even the salmon are larger than normal for this time of year (more like the salmon that should have been here in June), so fishing should continue to be good until hot weather arrives.
Again today was a very productive day on the Miramichi. Still very good numbers and the water at 63 F. I fished Edmounds Pool and rolled 3, hooked 2 and landed 1. Also some local friends fished with me and they had great luck landing 1 and hooking 5 others. Guide Ian Fortune landed a 25lb salmon 2 days ago on a brown bomber.
I also fished the Bartholomew River and seen a great amount of Par and trout, Never seen any sign of any salmon but I would think there is some there. There is still reports of fish jumping in the Bay by Miramichi city. Thats all for today will let you no tomorrow if the water raised with the rain we got.
Bye for now,
Rodney Colford.
