Fishing With Hoagy
The Grand Cascapedia River, on the Atlantic coast of Canada, boasts some of the best sport fishing in the world. Its salmon stocks are in great shape and people pay big money for permits to fish there.

Carmichael took producer Bob Carty fly fishing and talks about the river’s unusual history and of concerns for its future.
