Hi Peeps,

Has anyone been on a catfish expedition to south america?

Just curious, because I saw a holiday expedition advertised somewhere, and now I cannot find it.

Specifically the Amazon,plus I watched Blue Planet the other night which had a documentry on catfish in the Amazon.

That would just be the perfect holiday...... :D

Yes, several things are documented in the Shane's World section. I'm going to the Amazon in a couple of weeks.

Jools, Whitepine and I will be doing Colombia, Peru, and Brazil in two weeks time. My nets have been dry too long!

Since Expedicion Tres Fronteras kicks off in two weeks, I suppose we ought to start a seperate topic soon.
