Do any of the forum members have any plans for a fishing trip to a foreign destination during the next season?

Going back to fish the Skeena in British Columbia this year, except this time in August.
Gives me a better chance of contact with some chinook salmon as well as the steelhead, and some dry fly fishing for these fish also.

Would like to try a few days on one of the Norwegain rivers Namsen, Guala, Orkla etc but i dare say that i'll have to put in a few extra weeks offshore if i want that this year..  |

SK,
Plenty of wee rivers in Amsterdam last time I was there, not sure when or what the salmon runs are like though.
Nolon.
(There's a joke in there somewhere about 'us all sitting in the red light district clutching out 15 footers' that I won't stoop to)

Northern Norway..........but sea fishing so the trip doesnt count. Even though halibut can scrap as good as any salmon.
I am getting very tempted to go for a cast in the Reisa which runs into the head of the fjiord we fish. It is a cracking looking river and not too busy after mid July.
I hope for a few days on the Tweed in November which is quite close to a foreign destination!

Friend of mine has just moved to Southern Sweden, have to see how logistics go, and try and visit the Morrum.
Though not salmon, went fly fishing in Mexico recently.

Plans are little bit smaller than last year but
Twice on Kola, Tweed and one day on Morrum has to be enough.

Week 41 , lower part
Hope that will be not to much water
By the way I will be very appreciate of fly suggestions. Still is few months but now is the best time for tying.
Like always the best flies are tied in the evening but with something I have to start.

You wont go far wrong with a Cascade or similar at that time of the year. A few tubes if the water is higher, a gold Willie Gunn or Junction Shrimp.
Do you fish two different rivers on the Kola or have two trips to the same one?
