International fishing trip - suggestions?

G'day,

A few mates and I are looking to take an overseas fishing trip at the
end of 2004. Probably over Christmas and New Years. The last few
years, we have gone up and down the east coast of Australia and we
want to venture overseas this year. We were tossing the idea around on
our last holiday (Shoal Bay, NSW) and thought that Bali or somewhere
in Indonesia would be a good idea.

The following was some suggested criteria:

a) inexpensive flights/accomodation (we are all on a budget)

b) good fishing (obviously). Ideally, we would do a few deep sea
charters and spend the rest of the time in estury, lakes, beach etc
fishing.

c) beautiful surroundings

d) good beer

e) good women

Does anyone have any suggestions/testimonial/horror stories? We are
all fit young blokes in our 20's and are merely looking to have the
time of our life.

Thanks for any help.

Best Regards,

Jono

If you are up for a long trip you might try Cabo in Mexico. Great fishing,
cheap accomodations and food and ah yes!
tons of fun in town. Sammy Hagar's Cabo Wabo is there along with his own
brand of Tequila. It's a very popular destination. Hope you guys have a
great time wherever you decide to go!....Ross
