Hello all!

i've received a bunch of kind requests for more pictures from my trip to Brazil so here they come! :)

I'm going to arrange them into THREE new threads:

(1) Flight into the Amazon - Pictures of my travel from Manaus, Brazil into the Amazon fishing area (The Unini River, Tributary of the Rio Negro)
(2) Peacocks - pictures of only our peacock catches (since I already posted non-peacock pictures)
(3) Nature - Beautiful non-fish pictures of the area I was fortunate enough to be able to visit

Again, if anyone has any questions, post them here for the group or send me a message/email.

ENJOY!! :D

We flew from Miami to Manaus, Brazil. Then a 1 1/2 hour prop flight west into the jungle fishing area and a 15 minute float plane to the camp:
