. 100+ lbs of pure muscle can certainly put a hurting on you.

Oh I forgot to mention. My wife booked a fly fishing trip for Norway next year. We're going to check it out for living purposes anyway.
Damn you, that sounds incredible. I'll need a full breakdown of the trip when you get back. I know very little about the fishing there, but have heard some good things. Sea trout/salmon I assume?

M-M-M-Matvei and the Jett
OK, so my brain is mashing posts together because I'm tired, so when I got to this, I legitimately thought "What? The tarpon?"
Only then did it occur to me to re-read the things I had glazed over.

I know Salmon. I'm not sure about anything else. She's used to BC/Alaska fishing from growing up there, so I know she's all about being able to recreate that. Or at least she was until she started doing some cost of real estate and living checks in some tropical islands.
Oh good. I'll know one person.

Are you settled on that? I thought we had an idea of where we wanted to go, but I saw @Chuck Downie doing the globetrotting thing and it got me off of my ass. A visit isn't enough. We've been trying to do multiple weeks in every serious contender. That takes real time.
Fly fishing is definitely my thing
. I've had many "passions" over the years but that's the one that hasn't waned. I've never had (or caught) sturgeon before. How was it?
Have you been there yet? We went this past April for the first time and the place blew my mind with how beautiful it was. We only had time to visit the main island, but that just gives us a good reason to go back again.

We're doing a week in Terceira and Pico in March as part of a larger Portugal trip. First visit for us. But they've been high on my list for a decade or so.
I could absolutely live in Germany, lived there for two years some time back, but it seems to be a bit more difficult than some other places to successfully relocate to.
We did three weeks in Japan last year and loved everything about it. It's a bit more of a reach as a retirement locale, but not impossible.

It’s up there with lingcod as some of the best fish you will ever eat. Smoked takes it to another level. There are crazy rules about catching them here. Huge population below the bonneville dam. The old ones are like 7 feet long.
