West River Pictou
Emptying into Pictou Harbour, the aptly named West River Pictou flows just west of both Middle River Pictou and East River Pictou. This river is among many exceptionally popular river systems along the north shore of Nova Scotia, and will not disappoint if you are targeting sea-run trout. Nearby, you can also visit historical Pictou Harbour, a number of wilderness areas and provincial parks, and secluded beaches on the north shore - maybe even with a view of PEI across the way!
