Tokyo Tony Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Did my dream trip a couple of times when I was a kid, but I wanna do it again: An extended houseboat trip in the Everglades out of the Flamingo Marina with a 17' Egret flats boat and a canoe with a little outboard in tow, and enough beer and ice to last forever. We'd anchor in Little Shark River, take the flats boat out early morning to catch snook, redfish, tarpon, and seatrout along the Gulf shore in any of several creek/river mouths depending on the tides. Other days we'd take the canoe up into the little feeder creeks that open up into back bays on incoming tides and sightfish for snook and reds on the flats. Then at night we'd grill up the seatrout and any mangrove snapper we caught off the houseboat, have a feast, then use the carcasses to nightfish for big sharks. Of course, include in this trip every piece of high-end gear possible 8-) Quote
Willzx225 Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 I would take my dad and we would head out for a year in our Zepher Travel System. We would spend a month or so in Florida (Okeechobee/ Toho) or Amistad/ Falcon and then fish the whole Elite Series as a Pro/ Coangler with some well planned stops in between events. The other stops mixed in would be Guntersville (spring), Logan Martin, Lanier (late in the year for those deep magnum spots), Champlain, Clear Lake, and the Cal Delta (time permitting-wait it is my "dream" trip so we would make it happen!) Oh yeah and we would have a travel partner the whole way - KVD. And all this would be paid for by Microsoft or some huge company like that. I could go on and on but I think I'll stop now since I am at work. Awesome thread! Quote
Popeye Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Loch Ness, Scotland to look for Nessitara Rhombopterix, more commonly known as "Nessie"! Bait would have to probably be a full grown sheep! And since Plesiosaurs have some good size teeth, I'd use a steel cable leader and 20 ton test line. Wonder if Suffix makes any?? Quote
Big T Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Saltwater: First I would like to spend a week in the Keys catching Tarpon, Snook, and what ever esle would bite. Second I would like to spend a week in New England catching huge Blues and Stripers. These trips would be furnihed with all of Shimano's top of the line Stells reels and Calcutta series rods, only because the Cape Fear rod Company went out of business. Freshwater: I would like to go tackle some huge Bass in Florida with Shiners And I would like ot go to Panama fishing for huge Peacock Bass at my Uncle's new house on the Lake down there. Quote
Tpayneful Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Raul, Those Tiger Fish in Africa may be one of the most aggressive fish in the world. They attack their prey at full speed WHAM! It is awesome. An ESPN Film crew got to see me catch this one. Quote
fishnaddiction Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 this time of year a trip to any lake that doesnt have ice on it but no seriously the amazon for peacocks Quote
The Bass Guy Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 A Dream Trip.. Well Since there is no boundaries listed... I would like a dream trip that lasted several years, practice fishing and then tournament fishing in the BIG tournaments.. Oh yeah after I remember how to fish... LMAO... Oh Mortgage heck.. It's time to go food shopping tomorrow, gotta refinance today to buy that hamburger... Have a great night... No honestly though, I would love to have that rich uncle to let me fish for a living for awhile... Don't forget, panfish always taste great... Duane Quote
Super User Crestliner2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Super User Posted January 30, 2008 Lake Amistat for largemouth or Lake Erie for smallmouth. Quote
-Drums- Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 +1 for El Salto. Decent (?) Mexican chow and margaritas at Anglers Inn. Nice size bass all day long, with the very real possibility of a 10+ on any given cast. While we're at it, bring Mark Zona along. That guy's a nutcase! I'd be catching big bass all day, and laughing my a** off the whole time! Either that or one of those fly-in Canada trips for untapped smallies. ...sigh... Quote
rondef Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 +2 for El Salto I saw the hawgs they pulled out of that lake and would love to get a shot at catching a few. Quote
BaitMS Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 DREAM-One month on each CONTINENT: North America targeting largemouth and smallmouth bass, freshwater and saltwater trout, stripers, snook and redfish South America targeting peacock bass and golden dorado Europe targeting zander (walleye), pike, and sturgeon Asia targeting the Mekong catfish Africa targeting the nile perch Australia targeting the barramundi Antartica targeting the Antartica cod and whatever other species I happen to catch. REALISTICALLY-I hope to land a double digit largemouth in Florida this year. Quote
