The Joy of Fly Fishing in New Brunswick

I've waited almost 10 years to feel as good as I do now so I plan to make 2013 my biggest fishing year since having heart attack in 2004 that set me right on my ass. It took me four years just to pass my stress test so I was allowed to drive and fish again.

Even though I passed the stress test and was allowed to go fishing I was still pretty much a weakling for the next few years. I've even had to pass my fishing rod over to Jamie a time or two when the fish I had on wore me out before I could land it.

Each year I got a little stronger until last year when I was able to land every fish. My confidence level was increasing as well and I even went on a musky fishing adventure at the end of last year. We didn't get a musky but I did get a 25" chain pickerel without any help.

Time To Take It To The Next Level

I have been so excited about doing some muskie fishing in 2013 so you can imagine how excited I got when Ron, a Facebook friend offered me some of his muskie lures at a price I couldn't turn down. He even sent me a picture of each lure lying next to a measuring tape so I could see the colour, style and length.

I have two Plano boxes just waiting for my new muskie lures. Casey is giving me a tackle bag that will hold the bigger Plano boxes. Now I just have to wait for our New Brunswick fishing season to open.
