Atlantic Salmon and Sea Run Brookies sounded good to me! I must confess I was somewhat reluctant to imagine Brookies over 2 lb. but with varying low and high water in Maine and warm to boot, well, why I’m in the wrong place again. Our guide said rain will bring more fish up and start a fall run ofnot go for it. The water was low but 58 to 62 degrees temperature. As Pat said, we were over Atlantics every day, no cigar. These fish moved toward our flies, rolled at them and leaped over our fly lines, not my first rodeo, continue fishing. I have felt the great tug from the King of fish and can’t help but cast to them. Reality does set in and a few good Brookies still wearing their sea lice like little medals, of wich they are deserving after their grievous journey upstream, is a good change. They had plenty of fight and bent a 7 wt., 10 ft. hard. Two of my favorite species in one river and of respectable size made for a great trip.The accomadations were great and North Shore Outfitters was a great outfitter. Jocelin and his wife Sonny are great people to provide every bit of info. you need as well as make great coffee streamside. The Atlantics were amazing and I saw fish that had to be pushing 35 to 40 pounds. The Brookies we caught were up to 5 pounds but larger Brookies were visible in shallow areas near natural springs. I was told that it is raining hard up there today and the fishing gets better now through September. Better?, What happens when it’s good? The locals said Pat and I were there when the water level was at a 20 year low?, now it’s finally raining and both species.I am definately returning. The outfitters were wonderful, enthusiastic people and the fish were what they said they would be. Truly, a great time.
