The 2021 Fishing season is now underway.With the perfect weather and conditions for opening day this year, the number of fish in the system appears to be the best we have seen in years, with very good reports of many hookups from above Boistown to Quarryville and everywhere in between. Springtime is normally the best time of the season to see the most accurate account of returning salmon to the river – moreso now than ever, due to the warm low water conditions we have been experiencing the past few summers. We will see how the spring season works out but if opening day fish numbers are any indication, it’s looking like the run of 2020 was a very good one. The water is almost now at a perfect height for good fishing – just a bit on the lower side for this time of season. We will need rain to enjoy good boat fishing later into May. After a long winter, Springtime on the Miramichi River is a great time to enjoy the outdoors and an ideal time for beginners as lots of action playing fish makes good practice for possibly landing your trophy Sea Run salmon later on in the season. For anyone who has not tried flyfishing, there are a large number of good outfitters and guides available throughout the river system. If anyone is interested in fishing, guides, cottage rentals or Private Pool access then call 1-877-359-4665 ( 1-877-FLYHOOK ).
