N.B. fishing season opens, but outfitters miss international anglers

 Dozens of boats dotted the Miramichi River in Blackville with cheerful fishermen eager to land an Atlantic salmon on Thursday morning.

It's a far cry from last year when the season was delayed for two weeks because of COVID-19 restrictions.

"It's a beautiful day, beautiful conditions, for a few fishermen, all from New Brunswick," said Byron (Byzie) Coughlan, the owner and operator of Country Haven Lodge and cottages. "We wished we had the borders open, but that's the way it is."
 

The majority of his customers come from the United States and the U.K. So despite returning to an April 15 opening day, fishing in New Brunswick is still a lot different for businesses that rely on people coming from other countries.

Coughlan says people come from all over the world to his homestead in Grey Rapids, near Blackville, for their chance to fish for Atlantic salmon.
