| FISHING IN NEW BRUNSWICK |
| We offer fishing on the Miramichi river. |

|
|
| Fishing in New Brunswick is more akin to the type of fishing we are used to in the UK - the pools for the most part being private to the lodge in which you stay. The Miramichi, world famous for its Atlantic salmon, flows through the heartland of the Province of New Brunswick. It is a beautiful river with clear, clean water running over an endless succession of gravel bars, braiding into channels flowing around fertile islands. Oxbows and backwaters provide habitat for beavers, otters and wildfowl. Good river management has resulted in large numbers of fish returning each year. Salmon average 6 - 8lbs, with 10 - 15lb fish taken regularly and 30lb specimens occasionally. |

WILSONS
|
 Wilsons have been hosting fishermen since 1855. Keith Wilson is the latest in the line of family experts to carry on the fishing traditions of the lodge, which is delightfully informal and friendly. To ensure a memorable fishing experience you will be one of 12 rods. You will be transported by a traditional "chestnut" canoe to the 16 private pools on the Miramichi and Cain's Rivers and will be guided by some of the best salmon guides. |
| ACCOMMODATION |
 The "Big Murphy Pool" is home to a new main lodge with a spectacular 20 km view of the Miramichi Valley - with no other dwellings in sight. The main level has the office, kitchen, dining room (where excellent home-cooked meals are served) and tackle/gift shop, surrounded by nearly 100 feet of covered deck. The lower level begins with a covered deck providing access to a comfortable lounge with fireplace. There is an adjoining bar. Accommodation is in one of seven cabins nestled among the spruce and white birch trees on the five acre site. Cabins have private toilets, showers and veranda. |
