Rivers and reservoirs are closed for the winter but the smaller stillwaters are open all year.  The fish are fitter and fight harder in the colder water so now is a good time to visit.  You can also book me for a fly casting  lesson, either as a complete beginner, tune up your existing skills or learn some new ones.  Lessons can be a couple of hours on grass or combined with a fishing day.


Our annual Atlantic Salmon fishing trip to the Miramichi took place at the end of September and was a great success,  Over 100 fish were hooked and around 70 landed and released. The fish came in a range of sizes from about 7 pounds upwards with several in the region of 30 pounds.

We are running the trip again in September 2017 and already have a number of bookings. There are still places available for this trip so if you want an opportunity to fish one of the best Atlantic Salmon rivers in Canada and North America then either call me or contact Country Haven Lodge (phone 001 506 843 9010).

September 2016

Fishing has been slow on the Taw system due to lack of water.  A rise in early August produced good fishing for a week or so but low levels have returned with the inevitable fall off in fishing success. Keep an eye on the weather forecast as there is generally a spell of good fishing a few days after heavy rain .

Our annual Atlantic Salmon fishing trip to the Miramichi at the end of this month bodes far better.  They are having great fishing there at present and this looks to continue through our week and beyond to the end of their season in mid October. You can see how things are going by looking at the Country Haven Lodge fishing report on this link http://www.flyfishingatlanticsalmon.com/reports.html.

We still have some spaces available for this trip so if you want an opportunity to fish one of the best Atlantic Salmon rivers in Canada and North America then either call me or contact Country Haven Lodge (phone 001 506 843 9010).

Salmon and sea trout fishing on the river Taw continues to improve following the removal of all the major migration barriers on the Taw and Mole. Conditions at the moment are perfect and some fish have already been caught on the Mole.  Fishing a few days ago I hooked and lost a good fish on the Taw so all the signs of a good start to the season are there. It's definitely worth making a visit now while river levels are perfect and there is an opportunity of hooking a spring fish. As always it's a case of being there at the right time.

Hopefully we will get some good saltwater fishing for bass in the summer but be aware of the recent change in regulations, no bass can be kept until July and then only one fish a day per angler can be retained.

Our late September trip to the Miramichi river to fish for atlantic salmon is planned again for 2016.  Their season has now started and you can see how things are going by looking at the Country Haven Lodge fishing report, click this link http://www.flyfishingatlanticsalmon.com/reports.html.

Contact me or the lodge if you have an interest in our trip.
