Father fishing the Tobique River

Father and I did not do a lot of salmon fishing together and I can not recall when he started fishing salmon in earnest. i dare say it was in the early 70's.

A little time and dedication can bring results, and although I don't always catch fish I learn something every time I go.

Me again.

Father, Me and Duncan on the Tobique

In order to continue with Part 2, I felt that a few more photos were required. So, I spent the better part of Saturday evening going through Mother's old desk. I don't think she threw away a piece of paper since she came here in 1946. Definately a treasure trove. As you can imagine it was a trip down memory lane for me. One of the first discoveries was my New Brunswick Guides certificate issued in 1952. A short dig below that turned up Fathers guides certificate dated 1935. But I digress. So back to fishing.

Father with a nice stringer of trout

In order to do this correctly I have to give a short history of Father. When he was in his early teens he hunted, fished and trapped with his Great Uncle Henry Prosser. Father would tell about them hopping a frieght train and then jumping off when they got to the place where they were going to hunt, fish or trap for the next few weeks or a month. Under the tutelage of Great Uncle, Father became an excellent woodsman.

I have been thinking about this ever since I read the post by Joel Anderson on "The Season of Reflection". Who influenced me and helped me to be the fisherman that I am today. This will be about the people that have given me direction and substance to my Fishing. Please give it a read and let me know what you think, this may be a good way for others on the site to educate us all about them and their influences.

Please Enjoy.
