I've been searching my limited knowledge to come up with a good winter
destination for trout for you, and I'm coming up empty. Maybe New Zealand?
:-)


I've completed two of the three levels available of RosettaStone Spanish and
am still dreaming of Patagonia ... but .... I hate airplanes and it's 18
hours or something down there .... same for NZ ... add the obvious cost
factor and it ain't going to be this year, as we watch the stock part of our
retirement plummet temporarily


I've heard on good authority that the Provo in Utah is good in the winter,
but I have no first-hand knowledge about it.


Actually California has pretty good fishing available, if you're willing to
stoop to nymphing ;-) .... I see that even my 5 miles from here local
water made it big and hit the cover of a FF mag recently. But, as you amd
most fishermen know, the 'trip' is often the more important word in 'fishing
trip'



Silver Creek, which you know well, is gorgeous in the winter and sometimes
fishes decently, but no hatches to speak of that I've seen. Duck hunting
is very popular, though.


I 'think' it follows the Idaho state general season and is closed in Winter
??? BTW, I was there this June for three weeks and hit the start of the
Brown Drakes ... an experience, for sure
