    Thanks for the fantastic pictures. That looks like some wonderful fishing!
    I'm sorry to hear that you fell in. I hope you're recovered now?

    I'm going to be heading up to Invernesshire in a month or so and I hope to get a good bit of fishing in. (Since I am told my nice, stout, Scottish fly-rod might be a bit too stiff to use when I get over to the states.)

    I'll be camping near Loch Ness and doing some of the 'touristy' stuff once more before I leave. Culloden and the like. (I've not seen the new visitor's centre, yet.)
    Most of the time I will be just relaxing, hiking and fishing.

    Arlen - bring the rod. There is some great salmon fishing in Idaho and on the west coast in Oregon and Washington states, as well as British Columbia.

    I will vouch for that. Took my father in law steelhead fishing here a few years ago on the Snake River just at the exit of Hells Canyon, before it joins up with the Clearwater.About 15 miles from my front door. He had been a commercial fisherman in Coeur d'Alene several years ago and this was the first time he landed a massive steelhead. 20 lbs! He took it home and put it in the smoker. Brought down half of it and it went very well with my homebrewed Scottish Ale.
