I had my best ever day salmon fishing in Labrador on the heels of a thunderstorm and rain pouring out of the heavens.The action was fast and furious. Fresh run fish kept coming up into the pool and I literally had to snatch the flies out of the water 10ft out on a couple of occasions as there were 3 or 4 salmon all following it in and and I didn't want to end up foul hooking one. Only time I have seen that happen.
But then the rain stopped, the sky cleared, out came the sun and the fun was over.
As we walked out we met a couple of guys going in to the same pool. One guy said, 'you fished in that rain, you must be nuts!". To which I replied 'yes, I'm nuts but I enjoyed every minute of it"
