Fresh Water Atlantic Salmon: High Water Put The Damper On Salmon

Drove to the Margaree Valley where the Autumn is unbelievable with color, in the Sun. Unfortunately the Sun Chose not to come out the week I was there. Caught a Grilse in some shrubs in the middle of the ever rising river and had to release him in the shrubs as we were both stuck. Rain and high water from the day I arrived, OH!, the people leaving the next day had great stories and pics of the numerous Atlantic Salmon they caught, all I caught was cold and some

kind of rash from a spider bite.

WOW - the atlantics really stuck it to you this season - kinda like my experiences with the albies. i like your style though - no need to fluf it up with all that nonsense about .. "it was still fun even though we didn't see or hook any fish." or "the weather was beautiful" or "just being in margaree was wonderful, it didn't matter that we didn't hook any atlantics" - i much prefer the truth.
