in the northern half of the province. Brook Trout are also plentiful in
this region. In the more populous south, there are several varieties of

and west. The
primary New Brunswick fishing rivers are the Kedgwick, Restigouche, Upsalquitch,
Nepisiguit, Miramichi, Tobique, Cains, Magaguadavic, and the Saint John
River.
