Miramichi Fishing Report for September 8, 2011

By Giv'er Miramichi / September 8, 2011 /

This will be another week of very high water, in some cases higher than it was in spring. However, it should bring in the fall runs of both salmon and grilse. All else aside, it is very positive for the fish, even if catching for anglers is a bit more difficult.

The trapnet at Cassilis was recording only a couple of fish per day earlier this week, while the Millerton net was averaging 5 to 6 grilse and 2 to 3 salmon daily.

Miramichi Fishing Report for September 1, 2011

By Giv'er Miramichi / September 1, 2011 /

Here we are in September, and there certainly is no shortage of water. Hurricane Irene drenched us pretty well, leaving all rivers very high, and in some cases dangerously high, and dirty. The best guess by most who report on the river is that maybe by the weekend, most rivers will be fishable high.

Both the trapnets at Cassilis and Millerton had very low numbers last week. They were taken up on Sunday before the storm and probably will be fishing again by Tuesday past.
