dream fishing trip??

[BuilderFL]

I would like to go fishing for Black Marlin in Costa Rica and even get a couple of Rooster fish while I'm there.

[spareparts]

Lowest odds of me actually doing it first
Rooster fish in El Savaldor or Panama on light tackle
Salmon out of Kenai, Alaska
Drive thru a trout creek and squish a rainbow under my tire in Telico, NC in my buggy
Blue fin Tuna out of Hatteras
Florida strain large mouth in lakes around Orlando
Fall sail fish out of here
A fresh water striper that's worth keeping with Reel on an upstate SC lake(rare event from what i hear)
A salt water striper out of Rudy inlet with Lee and/or kracker/draglink/cvensor or any one else on here in Va.
Actually catching some thing of note out of my 14 Mckee

back to the choctawhatchee river with my mom & dad one more time

Tarpon in Marathon...check
Bluefin Tuna out of Hatteras...check
Billfish in Costa Rica....check
Sailfish off the NC Coast....check

Now if I could only catch a damn slot sized red drum I could die happy, that and a few Central American Rooster fish would be a bonus.

Blue Marlin off the west coast of Africa
Costa Rica Sails
Louisiana Redfish
Big Stripers up there w/some of you F__kers that knows how to get 'em

I'm one of those F__ckers who knows, get your Old Coot arse up here, soon.

S far as my desires it would be the Roosters, then Yellow Fin on the west coast.
Would like to spend a month down by Seacrets fishing the Gulf with FishBones, and a month chasing Reds with my best friend Van Bailey in Louisiana.

A few weeks fishing the big drop off in Puerto Rico.
And a few weeks chasing all those Bahamas fish with a fly rod.

I would also like to spend a couple of weeks chasing big brown trout on the fly in England and Scotland.

dont know if you southern boys know this but baby bluefish are called 'snappers'. another fact you may not know is many days, bluefish can be quite the nuisance.
toward the end of summer those little snapper are between 3/4 pound and 1 1/2 pounds. they'll eat dam near anything you throw at them. we got a spot where they hang for hours at a time. they hide from the bigger blues and stripers that are getting fat for the trip south. we throw tins at them on 4 pound spinning gear and believe me they tear yards off them little reels. you can hook up with a fish on dam near every cast and you'll get tired way before they will. aint much to compare with them for light tackle. we flatten the barbs down on trebles cause they take the whole dam thing in their mouth.
many's the day when snappers or blues have saved the day and provided hours of fun. we even throw them 4 pounders at the bigger boys and go on and fight a 10 pound bruiser on a 4 foot spinner.
not my dream trip and certainly way behind another chance to fish with my dad but some of the best sport you can come by in the northeast.
