The Amazon River was an adventure my crew and I prepared for with all sorts of extra gear. We had plenty of strange experiences, but none stranger than the one represented on my Red-Bearded Spotted Moose T-Shirt.
As a lifelong fisherman, I enjoy wearing my Starry Flounder T-Shirt. It is a reminder that there is an exciting conquest to be had along the Pacific Coast.
Well, we set off into the thick jungle and up the steep hills after a successful landing at Paluang. Skipper Dick stayed with the boat as Powell and I hacked our way (gently, mind you) into the brush. Vines hung from the dripping trees and the ground was covered with a soft moss, making progress slow.
