By Cindy Rule Imagine this: It’s a cold winter morning and as you pull into your parking spot behind the shop where you work, your mind is full of worries about things that haven’t happened and guilt over things that have. You open the back door, stomp the snow off your boots and as you [Read More…]
Read MoreAs we head into the second week of the season, there is no shortage of water. Foul weather (or should I say ‘FOWL weather, as most say it’s great weather for ducks when it’s raining) certainly has brought the rivers up and in many cases, even over their banks. But that aside, the rain was needed, not only for the rivers, but for wells and fire-prevention. Bottom line is it certainly gave the rivers a good cleaning as I saw a lot of debris floating by on Wednesday. So generally speaking, today or by the weekend the water should clear and anglers will be back in numbers if we don’t get any more precipitation.
The printed angling regulations are now available, so check where ever you bought your license, or drop into a DNR office.
Trout season for the Miramichi drainage begins on rivers, brooks and streams on Tuesday, May 1, 2012, while lakes do not open until May 15.
