The best time of the year to fish

I get asked the question, when is the best time of year to fish and where. Here is my answer.

The Miramichi is made up of many different streams and rivers. Good fishing depends largely on when and what river you want to fish. Yes… July can be very good and the salmon are usually through much of the river system however there are some rivers that make up the Miramichi that does not have a run of salmon until fall. Example the Cains. So you think this is complicated; allow me to throw in the facts about the weather change. As we know the water levels have changed with the change in our weather. Once very predictable, the salmon would be at certain places in the river system at certain times of the year. The salmon has changed their habits. Last year a large amount of salmon made their way up river the first chance they got. It has been said by the elder local fishermen that they believe they are adjusting to the changes in the water levels and warmer temperature. For sure things are changing even for the salmon. In short if you want great salmon fishing it depends what time of year and where you go. Of course this is the Miramichi which is one of the best salmon fishing in the world so you should be able to find yourself some fish. Please note that if you fish for salmon in N.B. and you are from out of province, you require a guide. I am a guide. Ad a comment that you would like my service I will pick it up and get back to you.
