Renous River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Renous River is a Canadian river in New Brunswick.
The Renous River has its origins at several lakes in the Miramichi Highlands, part of the Appalachian Mountains, in the northwestern corner of Northumberland County.
Generally flowing southeast through heavy forests, the Renous River joins the Southwest Miramichi River at the village of Quarryville in Renous, NB.
The Southwest Miramichi River then joins the Northwest Miramichi River at Newcastle, NB to form the Miramichi River.
The river is noted for Atlantic Salmon fishing. The annual run of Atlantic salmon occurs from June through October each summer and early autumn. Fishing is restricted to fly fishing only and all large salmon must be released. Salmon fishing in this river is generally best after a spate. Popular salmon flies on the Renous River include the Black Bear series, Butterfly, and Silver Cosseboom. Small deer-hair Buck Bugs are a popular fly in normal water conditions. There is also a local fly pattern known as the Renous Special.
Tributaries include:
- North Renous River
- South Renous River
- Little South Renous River
- Dungarvon River
