I turned 60 a couple weeks ago, and I've been retired 5 years. Those two
numbers seem to invite a little introspection and suggest it's time for a
new 5 year plan.

Please list the places you like to fly fish for trout. No, I don't want
GPS or real secret spots. But, as I think about how to spend the next 5
summers "trout bumming" I don't want to miss a great place simply because I
havent' heard about it.


The Atlas mountains in Morocco.
The streams that run down through Portugal from the border with Spain.
The pyrenees.
County Cork, Connemara and Donegal in Ireland.
Some of the north-eastern rivers of Scotland (they don't go up and down
too fast)
Exmoor, in England
The Roya in the mountains behind the French Riviera
The clear limestone streams in the centre of Corsica.
Slovenia - grayling.
Azerbaijan and the Caucasus
The rivers that flow north into the Caspian sea in Iran
The streams about two hours north of Kabul in Afghanistan.

By coincidence, you'll eat very well in most of these places too
(except England, Ireland, and Scotland).
