newfoundland fishing

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Most of Newfoundland is fly only, at least for salmon and most trout streams. Pretty sure that there are lakes and possibly some streams where you can use lures and such. However you will see most if not all depending on the area are posted as fly only. So it is a good idea to practice your fly fishing skills.
A non-resident will require a guide for Salmon fishing or fishing more than 800m from a roadway. You may want to check that reg. I found it to be a bit of a grey area.
What area of the province are you going to?
