Salmon Migration

Jeff and Connie’s Newfoundland home is in the Humber River valley. The Humber River is a major salmon river and they are running. Yesterday we went to Big Falls.

Set-14-10W

Not a high falls but it does create something of a barrier for a salmon. There were several fishermen trying their luck below the falls. Flies and barbless hooks are mandated here.

Set-14-19W

Of course most of the fish make it past the fishermen but still must get past the falls themselves.

Set-14-33W

Once past the falls it’s easier going for them

Set-14-57W
