GRAND MANAN, N.B.

Clear, calm, 7C temp for a high barely into double digit in the forecast. Sunrise over Ross Island spectacular with red sun and mill pond reflection in the harbour, impressivie to say the least. Long range still looking good, sun moderate temps.

Fishery front remains focused on lobster preparation, bait coming in good amounts. Most of the fellows have at least a start, appears to be more interest in fresh frozen than in the past.

Hunters returned over the weekend, hunt not very successful the river very high, food source for the birds underwater. The accomodation was superior so the change of venue from previous years a mixed success.
