Thanks

Ken

I cannot say enough about that trip. They had Rods , baits whatever you needed to make your trip a good one. you can call if you have questions, I'm not that good typing. 1-209-610-4064

Talk to Jonah or any of the guys at Hi's Tackle Box. They've been hosting peacock trips for a few years now and can give you the lowdown on stuff like the proper vaccinations, airlines and gear restrictions, what to pack, etc. They have a relationship with Steve Yatomi of Adventure Travel Alliance--he works with Larry Dahlberg (his show is The Hunt for Big Fish on ESPN) and knows the ins and outs of fishing for exotics all over the world.

Ken,
Also talk to ol' Big Jim Davis when you see him next. He went just a year or so ago and can surely fill ya in on his trip.

Have fun, seems like a great trip.
