Road Trippy 2015 Erica&Hernan

An unexpected collusion of events is conspiring for us to take in once in a life time experience as a team. Challenges abound, but proper preparation and creative thinking will improve our odds to make it happen. We will make a hybrid expedition: Drive from Oregon to Colombia, while fishing the heck of the rivers in north america in the way down. Let us begin the planning....

Fish across America (or the Americas, as it were), this was a large impetus behind the idea for Road Trippy 2015, but the fishing landscape is vast and the trout are numerous.  Thus begins the enormous (and exciting) work of narrowing down where to go and when.  Should we wing it and go where the spirit moves?  Should we try to do the greatest hits? One idea I've been contemplating is to explore some of the native trout populations, like the Golden California Trout seen above (how incredible is that!).  The photo comes from a great website with some links to native trout sites that might help us out.  We'll see where this leads.
