Even then I don't think I would. Firstly I'm not the adventurous sort. The thought of dying in a 'copter crash or drowning after falling over the side of one of the silly inflatables they use puts me right off. Secondly, still too many places to fish closer to home that offer me plenty of scope to up my game from its present standard.
Obviously if you get rained off your Junction week three years running I can understand maybe it offers a safer investment. The only other type I can see it benefitting are those in a hurry to catch lots of fish and in need of a fast learning curve, particularly if World Spey Casting Champion and 15 years experience as a gillie is missing from their cherished international angling guide/ rod builder C.V.

Going all the way to Russia for a measly week seems very wasteful to me. If I ever go on a foreign fishing trip, I'd rather go away for at least a month. Places I'd like to try include Russia, Norway, Alaska, Patagonia and the Florida Keys (for tarpon). Decisions decisions!

Col Alaska & British Columbia for a month in a camper van is more suitable for the budget I had in mind.
