El Presidente Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Day three saw the four of us sleep in due the after effects of one of those red wine early morning finishes. Lodge manager “Taffy” is already reconsidering the “Free Drink” scenario.....we are the first Australians ever to be at the lodge !LOL! Lovely American husband and wife are staying here as well. Greg and I somehow managed at 1am to walk into their bungalow by accident ....turn on the lights...and witness pure panic. They are talking to us again. Fished with Macho today on the upper reaches of the river system. 90 minute high speed boat ride left us wondering if it was all worthwhile. It was.......sight fishing heaven. If you could picture an 18 hole fishing course of the great spots in the world.......where we fished today would be the 18th. 10-16 lb fish everywhere in deep timber. The shallow water made them skittish but when the right fly was delivered, the water exploded. Macho and I would have caught and released 50 fish over 4 hours and missed the same number again. Came back to the lodge at 6pm tired in need of a swim. Poolside bar helps. Dinner was excellent as usual. The boys are having a cigar over a few bottles of Red wine while I tap this with a SLR Regio and a local rum. It is not Zacappa....but I am not complaining. Great day! Some picks of the day
First Lady Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Good to see you are right back into your normal ways... I have missed my drunken rat bag
OZCUBAN Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Hi Rob looks like you are having a ball ,was it your mate Greg you said looses every thing including his sense of direction Cheers Oz
Van55 Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Only you, Gargett and the Reds would wear those striped kiddiefiddling shorts. Go Tahs!
LeafLover Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 When I grow up, I want your job Prez. Could it be that your shorts drew the attention of all the wildlife? LOL.
Buch0 Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 LMFAO at walking into the couples bungalow.. I would feel sorry for them if they weren't yanks Cheers for the update and pics.
mbrody Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Thanks for the great updates! Keep em' coming!
smll2 Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 LMFAO at walking into the couples bungalow.. I would feel sorry for them if they weren't yanks Cheers for the update and pics. Rob screaming " I'm a better man than you" while jumping up and down on the mattress must have been a sight to see....
CIGARHead Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 You know how to do it up right, Rob....now, about them shorts...that is wrong.
micahzeff Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Really enjoying these posts, especially the photos. Thanks for sharing them with us.
BolivarSmoker Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Living the dream indeed, Prez. Love the pictures. Keep 'em coming.
Bartolomeo Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Lets think about this for a second..........Guy wakes up one day in Australia, flies to Brazil to fish, flies to Cuba to smoke some cigars a couple days later and back home one day..........ah, I'd say thats the good life indeed Bart
Tampa1257 Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Rob, are you wearing those shorts because you miss having Ken along this trip? All the Cuban transvestites will be catching up with you if you wear them in Cuba.
jacksfull Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Wow. Beautiful fish. Beautiful scenery. That's got to be a trip to remember. Enjoy!
chuck1rar Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 For all of those bagging the shorts..I thought they are pretty cool shorts. Sort of like Paul Smith design... Having said that most of the shirts Rob wears are pretty flamboyant mardi gras type of shirts but these shorts he has are spot on.. Ignore them mate for once u have style:)
