Old River Lodge-Miramichi River

The Old River Lodge seeks to provide salmon anglers with a mixture of outstanding private access fishing and exceptionally luxurious accommodation. The fishing is all on privately owned water, a total of 70kms of river which includes a superb range of very high quality salmon pools. The fishing is primarily based around Blissfield but includes water that stretches from Blackville to the Upper Miramichi allowing not just variety in the types of pools anglers fish but allows for quality fishing in all water conditions. All the fishable water available is restricted to the lodge capacity of 10 rods. This ensures an unprecedented level of privacy on the Miramichi with pools being fished on a rotational basis allowing pairs of anglers 'virgin' water each day. The Old River Lodge, founded some 40 years ago, has recently been completely renovated and refurbished. Existing accommodation for 4 rods has been augmented by the construction of three new river-front guest chalets housing an additional 6 anglers. Pairs of anglers are accommodated in individual bedrooms with private en-suite bathrooms. Each new guest chalet has an expansive shared sitting room with screened river-front veranda and individual drying room. The Old River Lodge will be reopening in June 2012. We hope that you will support and follow us over the forthcoming season.
