Doug Schlink with a 25 pound Restigouche salmon at Red Pine Mountain Lodge

Doug Schlink, 25 pounds

This was my third salmon of the day (the others 17 & 20 pounds). This salmon took in the "bucket" between the two big rocks in Two Brooks in front of the Warden's Cabin. The fly was swinging hard and this fish hit so hard he nearly ripped the rod out of my hands! He made 5 spectacular jumps. A fine day of salmon fishing on the Restigouche River!
