The first real snow fell on us today here in Southeastern North Dakota. It was a good day to sit and daydream about warmer-weather adventures and to live vicariously through the experiences others have reported online. A couple of notables:
From MidCurrent, James Card’s “Cold War Trout: Fly Fishing the Korean DMZ Borderlands”
This is a very engaging story that drew me in, having visited the northern areas of South Korea. I got to experience some of the mountainous areas and streams, but sadly without fly rod.
From Outside, Patrick Simms’ “A Peaceful Angle”
Taimen fishing in Mongolia. Another good fantasy for a lazy winter day here in North Dakota. The things one can do with money!
From Field and Stream, “Bill Heavey Goes Bass Fishing in Cuba”
Ever since I read Monte Burke’s book on bass fishing (see my bibliography in a previous post) I have wanted to find my way to Cuba to catch a world-record bass. Darn funding gets in the way every time.
Enjoy your Saturday as much as I have enjoyed mine! Reading these articles got me thinking about other pursuits, such as giant catfish in South America and trout fishing in Chile. Sweet dreams.
