Washington has 2 losses. Michigan is the only 2 loss team that is ranked. Washington has one win against a ranked team and both losses are to unranked teams. Michigan's other loss is to #1 Texas. Now if you want to argue that Michigan shouldn't be ranked I would tend to agree with that. But no...

The fish population is only 25% of target. Its just really poor right now but the flip side is that you can still catch a 6-8# fish on a given day.

The flight arrangements just work out a lot better to do this on the way home. You have good points though.

Thanks for the truly valuable insight.......

The conundrum of the travelling angler. Take to much stuff and its a PITA hauling it around. But sucks like heck to get someplace and say "damnit I should have brought .....". I err on the take as much as I can reasonably pack around to get to where I am going. Rather have it sit in the truck or...

Anybody ever done the one or two day add on for Golden Dorado out of Buenos Aires when going to Argentina? Thinking of adding on a day or two after our trip to Jurassic Lake. Certainly wouldn't expect the quantity or quality fish of a more remote jungle trip but it looks like it might be worth...

Thanks for the kind offer. I think I am in good shape with all the travel cases I have accumulated over the years.

Look I get all these points and they are fine. But: 1. A 20" or so firm trout is going to taste better than that old fish. 2. You can get the requested stomach samples from that 20" fish. 3. If you release it it might, might provide another angler the chance to catch such a great fish. When you...

Well after lots of going back and forth, and even thinking about a similar but not Jurassic Lake destination, pulled the trigger today. Booked ELV for November 8-15, 2025.

Great. Then why not kill one or two of those 18-20" fish and let that monster go so perhaps another angler could have the chance to catch it. Maybe it was near its end of like. Ok but still.

Overstocking may well be an issue. But killing one of a few trophy fish in a place doesn't help that one iota.

Great fish. But gotta ask. Why did you "retain" it? Try to release it and it just wasn't going to revive?

JLL is at the mouth of the Barrancoso River. Their "beats" are basically the Bay of Pigs, the beach, and then the right side and left side of the River. They also fish sections of the river and a bit of Moro Creek but most of that water is on the EVL ranch. So its not combat fishing like say a...

In order to be able to report on both I only need to go to EVL. Already been to JLL. Now that said if you guys would like to pony up the $8K to cover the second lodge I'd be happy to go down for 2 full weeks and go to each lodge. And I would be happy to then write a novel for this forum on my...

JLL is a bit of combat fishing. It doesn't have as much main lake area to fish as EVL. But JLL is at the mouth of the Barrancoso river so if you want to rack up huge numbers then that is where you fish and you go in our fall. EVL has more varied waters to fish and has a number of smaller lakes...

Whats not to understand? Looking for feedback from someone who has fished both lodges at Lago Strobel.

Probably a long shot but thought I'd ask. Thinking about going back to Lago Strobel. Last time we went to Jurassic Lake Lodge. Thinking about going to Estancia Laguna Verde next time. Wondering if anybody has been to BOTH of these and could provide some feedback on the comparisons. I have read...

Yeah and it just goes away, like it should, with robo umps. And if you want to watch crazy calls watch how umps react when the guy on first breaks for second. The catcher starts to stand as the pitch comes in and the umps has no clue if its a ball or strike.

There are two major issues with umps calling balls and strikes. 1. The pitches are hard to track. So much movement and velocity just make it overly difficult. 2. Every ump has their own "strikezone" and some of them are flat ridiculous. A hitter just never knows one at bat to the next just what...

They do not get even close to 95% of balls and strikes correct. Not even close. Robo umps can't get here soon enough.
