2022 Atlantic Salmon season begins
Home Pool 2021
Cold air temps and a bit of rain are finally bringing in some salmon. Here are two from Home pool Friday the 2nd of July.
Emily’s 2021 Atlantic Salmon
Here is the evidence of the low water during the last week in May 2021. Emily did a great job in hooking, fighting and landing this large Restigouche Atlantic salmon. As you can see the river was gin clear and very low. With few fish coming in to the the Restigouche river
under these tough conditions, the RRL hat is tipped to Emily!
Emily Rodger’s Atlantic Salmon from Adams Pool
Who says ladies can’t fish! Stop drooling guys.
Emily hooked this fat hen in our Adams pool. She finally landed the salmon off of Bell Island. Below the railroad and inter-provincial bridges. We are delighted for her, go girl!
Colin Huff’s Atlantic Salmon
Colin Huff got his big Restigouche Atlantic! Get another, Colin,
Greg “Magic Touch” Dixon with a great buck
I guess were getting tired of seeing this guy’s mug with another large Atlantic salmon! The man has the “magic touch” This fish was from yesterdays evening fishing. This morning Mr. Magic only managed a 20lb from the top of Ledges. First couple of casts, then BANG!
Yes he will be on the water tonight.
Greg Dixon’s Atlantic Salmon 2020
Greg Dixon with a beauty from tonight.
RRL guide Toby Gilbert’s Atlantic 2020
Here is a Restigouche Atlantic salmon landed by RRL guide Toby Gilbert. Times keep getting tougher in these Days of the Coronavirus. Despite the new outbreak in the Campbellton hospital, the Restigouche River Lodge is keeping our staff working for as long as we can. We have the hope of opening at some point this season. Maybe at the next date June 21. People need to work. Never say die!
Salmon showing in good numbers
We have been seeing good numbers of fish this week, hooking a few. Following a nice raise of water from the rain yesterday it looks like the season will end with a few more salmon being landed.
Shown here is RRL guide Sandy with our guest Randy of the Yellow Dog gang.
