I mentioned before about cool places I would like to fish. One of them is Patagonia. How about this 9 lb bow this German FF angler caught? Are you ready FGD & MacFly?
you betcha… looks like a great place to go fishing…
I am so ready. Like I said before, that would be my choice over Alaska. Plus the BEARS aren’t quite the same issue.[;)]
hehehe you have a point.. but if you ever watch north to alaska… man the salmon hit flies hard (and lures and bait).. maybe a good sized halibut instead…
course..isnt this the area for the peacock bass.. and cant you fish the shores for the rock fish??? ya’ll know my abilities with geography.. lol..

Hey there Mac you are right about the Peacock Bass being available in Patagonia - however, the Amazon is where you want to go if you have your sights on the Peacock Bass. I think that I am more suited for Patagonia as I prefer wading. Not a very good idea for the Amazon with all those flesh eating pirrhanas hanging around. I would rather be the hunter than the hunted. 
LOL
me personally…I just wants to catch some fish..but you are right.. I donts want them catching me…
MacFly
Just remember! In the Amazon, the Piharahs will get you before the Pirahnas. They have longer teeth.
That is one of the problems of relying on a spell check system. I don’t know what the hell a pirrhanan is but if it has long sharp teeth like a piranha I don’t want to be in the water at same time. LOL
My bad. It is Payara. Here are a couple of pictures. With this info, you can see why you don’t go tubing in those waters.
As you can see, Sharp objects and Tubes don’t mix.
Whoa - what big teeth you have Grandma! Those pearly’s surely would make a nice looking necklaces. TubeN2 time to get your tube armored plated.
The armor plating on the tube is not the problem. The problem is the extra weight of the armored waders. I think I might have to do this set up on an H6 or something like that.
Oh come now TubeN2 I didn’t mean that stuff that tanks are plated with - just some plain old Kevlar might do the trick.[;)]
That’s worth a try. Can I borrow your tube for the experiment???
Hey no problem my friend except that I covered it with camouflage and now I can’t find it. LOL
Ha ha!! I will find something.
…when I was growing up in St Louis my brother in laws family made pontoon boats from heavy aluminum pontoons… I wonder if someone could incorporate the same idea here…instead of aromoring the bladders of your tube.. make a scaled down version of a pontoon boat with aluminum pontoons… just a thought…heheh

I could probably try a couple of Oxygen tanks or I could go with some of he Jumbo Argon Gas tanks. That should get me enough clearance.
