ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS AND/OR OUTFITTER/BOOKING
AGENT REBUTTAL |
Two
of us returned
from fishing
for Peacock Bass in
the Tapara River
in the Amazon territory
last week and wanted
to report that
the fishing was
excellent and our
outfitter Garrett
Veneklasen was
first class. The
camp was well outfitted,
the food was good,
the boats and motors
are new and excellent
guides are on hand.
Garrett must be
congratulated.
As additional benefits
the fishing was
great. Paul Van
Wagner of New Orleans
caught many fish with his largest exceeding
22 lbs. During our trip Manny Drachman, my
partner caught several fish weighing 16 lbs.
on the last day we boated 42 peacocks with
15 weighing over 10 lbs with the largest weighing
14 1/2 lbs. I'll be happy to give you or any
of your readers additional information. |
