Pre fishing season thoughts

I sit on dinner break at work. We are experience the end of another one of our many snow storms this winter. Damien and I never got together to go fishing last summer. We are both so busy that cooridinating the time is not easy. Our day is coming old boy. Don't you worry! Until then I will just keep tying flies and will make sure I won't sell them all.

The salmon are holding in their winter homes under the ice of the upper reaches of various Maritime rivers including the Miramichi. The salmon have their privacy spawning this winter. The ice and snow is protecting them from most preditors. With the incredible amount of snow this winter, it certainly looks like we are going to have high water levels for the early part of the coming season. Time will tell.
