A visit to Spectacular to NWT.....

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

RJ & Markus,

I think the part I like the most is the decision to not get a guide and to figure things out on your own! That, to me, is the most rewarding challenge and part to fishing; unlocking the code and secrets to a new location. Fishing big and new water always seems to take a bit of time to figure out, but based on your numbers I guess you did pretty well 8) :) !

Tight Lines!

Finally got a moment to read the report. Awesome.
I have a feeling RJ and Markus would keep Survivor man well fed. If it has fur or fins...look out.

Thanks fellas, I haven't stopped thinking about the trip since home and recounting some of the tales to folks this week hasn't helped.

I guess we will just have to do it all over again!
