 Atlantic Salmon: Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
Posted by greg on October 25, 2004
At the end of the day, while rubbing Ben Gay into your throbing casting shoulder, you wonder what you did wrong or right. Was the Purple Grape of undulating maribou the magic fly? or your expertise in fishing that caught a fish. Tomorrow you open the most colorful fly box you have and the anguish over which fly to use starts again. I think you could throw a sneaker and if it is an aggravation to them, one may hit it.
We stayed at Browns Lodge.
We rented a Chalet with kitchen, satalite T.V. and with 2 meals a day the cost was about $400.00 for the week. This lodge is on the river with great Salmon pools on the river of it''s own. The 7 day lisc. was 45.00 to fish any of the rivers in the area and there are several good rivers.
I hooked a fish on the first day and lost him in a few seconds due to slack in my line. Finally caught one and Ken caught one about 30", nice bright fresh fish. We watched fish moving all week, lots of fish this year. People the week before during a good run caught 5 to 12 fish in 3 or four days. Timing is important. I have pictures of people and their fish. My fish is in their being tailed by a fisherman stading next to me, a good sized Grilse. The Margaree is one of the last open Salmon waters in the world, it shouldn''t be
missed if Salmon is what your after.
