Exquisite, Hans. Ready to fish! Wish it was time for that, but lots of snow, right now.

Ray,
Here is my favorite in the set of trip images - I am peering into a backwater on the Mataura, observing a brown lazily patrolling his patch
Cheers,

Hans,
Welcome home! We trust that all went well. These photo's are terrific! Can you post the entire photo album? That would be really cool. Probably not real practical but still ground breaking and enjoyable for us!
And now the big question....what was the favorite pattern?

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.

Hi Hans,
Welcome back and please keep the pics coming! Since you tied tons of all types of patterns for this trip, were there any real standouts among them? Did you get to try most of them out ? Just wondering.
Regards,
Mark
