Hello,
I'm starting to think about taking a few destination fishing trips over the next few years. From experience, I can mostly figure out what I need insofar as gear is concerned such as rods, reels, lines, and clothing, depending upon where and when I will be traveling. What I don't know much about is everything else I might need.
What's the best way to travel by air with rods, gear, waders (maybe wet waders on the way home), wading boots, etc.? How many bags should I expect to take, and which size(s) work best. Are quality duffels better than typical luggage such as suitcases? Is one big, fat rod tube better than multiple tubes? What's best if the trip includes any time on a float/bush plane? How much gear can be taken on a small plane?
Anything else I need to know about besides the typical which rod and reel should I use? It's nice to plan ahead so I can start looking for good used gear or gear that is on sale.
Any advice would be appreciated.
