Striped bass fishing Miramichi River May 13/16
Striped bass fishing on the Miramichi River New Brunswick Canada. The striped bass fishing here is incredible during this time of year and only gets better as the days heat up. When the temperatures rise so does the action as anywheres from 30-100 - 200 bass are attainable here during peak action. My arms are sore. Gotta check this area out if you like lots of action. We are fishing the Northwest Miramichi River near the village of Red Bank. (Metepenagiag)

Miramichi River, Red Bank, New Brunswick - Weekend Adventures!
I love to enjoy the outdoors and have fun doing the things that are depicted in this video. I love to fish for trout during the winter and spring months and also fish for Atlantic Salmon and striped bass in spring and summer along various areas of the Miramichi River. The Miramichi is a well known river in New Brunswick, Canada and anglers from around the world have enjoyed the sport of fishing.
I am aboriginal and I am from this land where the Mi'kmaq tribes are located along the east coast of the Maritime provinces. My family has always lived off the land, with each season providing us our foods and fun activities. We are learning to adapt to a new lifestyle!
Thanks to all the people who took part in this video.

N.B. First Nations activist recalled as a builder
Noah Augustine, a well-known First Nations leader from New Brunswick who died in a weekend crash, is being remembered for fighting for aboriginal logging rights and bringing native and non-native communities closer together.
Augustine, the 39-year-old former chief of the Metepenagiag First Nation in northeastern New Brunswick, died in Red Bank at about 10:20 p.m. on Saturday.
His 2009 Dodge Ram truck left the road, hit a tree and continued down an embankment.
The RCMP said they believe alcohol and speed contributed to Augustine's death. They also said they believe he wasn't wearing a seatbelt. A second person is in the Miramichi hospital recovering from non-life threatening injuries.
Augustine came to national attention as a leader in the fight for aboriginal logging rights in the province before being tried and acquitted of murder in the shooting of Eel Ground resident Bruce Barnaby.
He also oversaw a $1.4-million land claim settlement with the federal government and was pushing for electoral reform.
'It's very sad and a little discouraging to see a relatively young life ended in such an untimely fashion, particularly a life that held so much potential for the future of aboriginal people.'— Bud Bird, former N.B. cabinet minister
T.J. Burke, a friend and former New Brunswick Liberal cabinet minister, said Augustine was a tireless advocate for First Nations people.
Not only on the spiritual side and the cultural side, but on the economic development side. He wanted to see First Nations people succeed, Burke said.
And he wanted nothing more for First Nations people than to be treated on an equal footing like everybody else, and to see his community prosper like every other community in Canada.
Augustine's commitment to bringing the First Nations and non-First Nations communities together was also remembered by colleagues, such as Bud Bird.
Bird, a friend and former Progressive Conservative cabinet minister, and Augustine founded the First Nation and Business Liaison Group to try and identify economic strategies for the communities.
Bird said Augustine managed to pass his vision for the future on to others in the community.
It's very sad and a little discouraging to see a relatively young life ended in such an untimely fashion, particularly a life that held so much potential for the future of aboriginal people, in my opinion, in New Brunswick and perhaps even in Canada, Bird said.
During his term as Metepenagiag's chief, the First Nation opened a $7-million park and interpretive centre to showcase the 3,000-year occupancy of the land by the Mi'qmaq people.

N.B. First Nations leader Augustine remembered Funeral fills church to overflowing
First Nations activist Noah Augustine was remembered at his funeral Thursday as a man who brought together aboriginal and non-aboriginal people.

New Brunswick Premier David Alward, chiefs and representatives from the Assembly of First Nations were among the 700 people at the funeral at St. Thomas the Apostle Roman Catholic Church in Metepenagiag First Nation, which was filled to overflowing.
Augustine was killed in a car crash Saturday at the age of 39.
Richard Lang, a longtime friend who delivered the eulogy, called Augustine an articulate man who fought for the causes he believed in.
He was a leader who could set aside personal interests for the interests of the common good, Lang said.
He was also a family man, Lang said. His son Zachary Simonson and his daughter Chelsey Karasek both read poems they had written.

The two-hour mass was filled with songs sung in English and Mi'kmaq.
Lt.-Gov. Graydon Nicholas said outside the church that Augustine and his work will be remembered for generations.
He's also inspired a lot of young people and I think the next generation of young children that will be coming up —future leaders — I think they'll see something in that.
At the age of 21, Augustine became a counsellor to help people in his community who were addicted to drugs.
He first gained national attention leading the fight for aboriginal logging rights in New Brunswick, rights that were affirmed by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2006.

A chief of Metepenagiag First Nation until May, Augustine was instrumental in reaching a $1.4-million land-claim settlement with the federal government in 2007.
He also led an initiative as chief to form partnerships between First Nations and the private sector.
While he was chief, Metepenagiag opened a $7-million park and interpretive centre to showcase the Mi'kmaq's 3,000-year occupancy of the land, formerly called Red Bank.
More than a decade ago, a jury found him not guilty of murder in the shooting of Eel Ground resident Bruce Barnaby.
