Sounds like a challenge......um, how far is that from Milwaukee? Wolfgang

Till then, I'm willing to shrug it off as coincidence. Wolfgang

205717.news.uni-berlin.de: Sounds like a challenge......um River fisheries tend to be lowland affairs where streamside modification have taken place ... i.e. farming. Casting my "scrabbling through the bush for a fish" eye over some waters leads me to believe there are unexploited opportunities there. The easiest (best? only?!) way to access them seems to be from a lake walking up the guts of the stream. The bush is _that_ thick...did I mention the leeches yet? On the upside, untrammelled places with untramelled scenery. On the downside, these streams may only hold any sizeable fish during the spawn when they are closed to fishing. Distance from Milwaukee? Three plane rides and a 1.5 hour 4WD (preferable) jaunt should about do it. You could be into a lowland fish in less than 24 hours assuming you make it past the beagles at Hobart International. A remote highland stream? Just about as far as you care to take a hike. ;-) Steve
