The fly-fishing trip of a lifetime

We will be planning one for 2007.
We are thinking of Patagonia.
I care more about the pristine environs & exotic places than catching fish
but
I would like to catch a few.

My wife wants a little warmth.

Any suggestions?

Where would you go if time and money were not such a consideration?

I'd probably go for a winter trip to the Seychelles -- bonefish,
trevally, wahoo, pompano, barracuda, and more.

Well, that would meet the requirement of "a little warmth" ;-)

I'd leave the wife at home and fish for wild, native brookies
in Labrador. Warm and fly fishing just don't go together for
me.

No you wouldn't. Remember, you won't pay to be guided in Labrador.

Besides,aren't you afraid that your neuticles might get wet?

Labrador for Brookies is the all time list but not w my wife

It does not have to be warm I don't like warm either.
I like cold fly fishing also.

This trip

Just not cold ...but pristine.

Patagonia is warmer than Alaska - I think?

There were a few comments about recently New Zealand that really tweaked my
interest. In particular, that once you get there, it's not that expensive.

Trout fishing is my favorite by far, but I've always had a hankering to do
the Amazon Queen...20 LB peacock...the strike is explosive...

Plenty of warmth for the Mrs. and much tourist stuff too....I can hear me
now, "No honey, you go ahead and go shopping, I'll just hang around the
beach in Rio.....but only because I love you so.....

Ideally, you send the wife where she'll enjoy herself and you pick a
good spot in Patagonia for you. If you must go together, try to find
a beauty spa in Patagonia that's near some good fishing and send her
off for her massage and pedicure each morning when you take your
fishing gear and go out another way.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.
