James provided some images and words on the CAA WhatsApp group. Here it is in report form.

The President sought a cleanup of our DropBox storage and I found this old presentation which had never been stored in our blog. Uploaded just for completeness, albeit some great personal memories, and photos of fish!

When Greg W was posted to UK he organised two group fishing trips to the far North of Scotland. He has previously provided a brief for the 2019 trip for our ‘Places to Go’ blog

Greg spoke at our 12 Mar 2025 meeting and provided additional detail including the 2021 return trip. An infrequently caught Arctic Charr was a reward for him.

I was reminded of a brilliant trip to far northern Mongolia 16 kilometres from the Siberian border fly fishing with Fly Fishers International Certified Fly Casting Instructor Ganbaatar.  Ganbaa recently sent the fly fishing trip options for 2024 which I want to share.

Trips usually last a couple of weeks and transport and all meals are provided including caviar for breakfast some days, western food and local food others.  Don’t overlook the Horse Burgers!!!

Flights to Mongolia’s capital Ulaan Baatar are via Seoul or Beijing.  Look up the fishing locations at Khovsgol and Delgermurun on Google Earth.

Having been to Mongolia three time, I am qualified to say that if you want an adventure fly fishing holiday, this is for you

Roger is currently in the UK, but prepared this for our August 2023 Burley Line

This appeared in our Burley Line 185 – December 2022, but I neglected to upload the report to our “Places” blog.

During his 2022 travels up north, Jason M had a session at the Daintree Saltwater Barramundi Farm with some success. Here is his report and images.

Found this on YouTube.

Peter and I should aspire to get drone vid like this. At 3min 25sec I thought he would hit the drone with his fly 🙂
