Value for money...

Thanks...rub it in!

By the way...just how much is an "out of state" fishing license over there? I'm used to paying the premium prices for the Minnesota license just to catch a couple of native Browns and several hatchery Rainbows every year (don't get me started on hatchery trout....guess it beats nothing at all). Should I cash in my stocks now and just bring the fee in Krugerands?

Wild brown trout fishing need not cost a kings ransom and no state licence is required for wild brown trout fishing in Scotland. Many lochs in the highlands with good fishing will cost you a few pounds. What can cost the money is a ghillie(guide) and a boat. They often come together. But for all sorts of reasons, safety for one,the money in my view is well spent. I know that £100 a day will get a ghillie, boat, safety, help with tackle, and a wonderful days fishing for some fish of a lifetime. Not all lochs have monsters and for a good stroll with a map and compass, midgie repellent, good wild brown trout fishing can be had for a round figure, if you know where to go. Most hotels North of the Great Glen will have fishing available and they would be worth looking at. Or, of course if "old Jock" keeps going a wee while longer, I could be on hand to "oil the wheels" locally.
