On a trip out to Milbanke Sound in beautiful British Columbia last autumn, editor Paul Sharman was not the only "frequent flyer" on the plane. His Orvis 7-piece travel rod was also tucked safely away with inshore rockfish the hopeful targets when he had time to break away from shooting a feature for the USA's 'Sport Fishing' magazine.

One of Fish & Fly's saltwater team members and top South-West bass guide Austen Goldsmith takes us on a trip to the Indian Ocean paradise known as the Seychelles and breaks out the poppers for some heart-stopping action with Giant Trevally and more...!!

Editor Paul Sharman took a change from the norm and went south on a recent visit to Belize, away from the busy resorts and lodges in the north to the "Forgotten Land" of the south as the locals call it.

News of amazing fishing in uncrowded conditions is slowly leaking out and if the willing tarpon, permit, bonefish and snook are anything to go by, this is another world class location on the verge of taking off. Get there while you can!

The three of us trekked down a tiny country road. On our left, the open ocean beckoned in the late day sun; while to our right - beyond a stonewall- cattle grazed quietly in a field. It was a peaceful scene. Continuing along, we eventually came to an old wooden gate, whose edges were laced with barbed wire. In single file each of us slowly slipped around it, holding our fly rod high, while being careful not to snag our waders. Then we headed to the water.

Guy Elson is one of our great young adventurers. Fish and Fly are really excited to have him on board, detailing his expeditions.

At present, he is investigating the Himalayas but we are pleased to publish his account of sailfishing in Guatemala.
