awesome report and pic! sorry about no boom boom haha jk..thanks for posting
my dad was in nam 67-69.and wen they wernt fightn they fished and loved the place.
awsome report.
Thanks, it was fun. I wish I knew what those little fishes were.
Do it! Bring your rod too man. It's a different world, man.
Try over 35 years for me with no memories. I wouldn't mind going back to that buddha and hiking up the mountain rather than takin the cable car.
Thanks troutman....it's good to be back.
It's not quite the same place it was then, form what people tell me. looks like there's a rising middle class. But that's true for much of SE asia. I never did try one of those bamboo poles, but wouldn't mind tryin. Hey if there's halibut there, wingnut, I know you'll find them. ;)
Thanks!
Story of my life. Nobody ever gets my ethnicity right. Mexican, native american, arab, one guy in Vietnam thought I was Japanese! Vietnamese mother, American dad....I guess I take after dad. Even my sister looks more asian than I. No shoot?! You were born in Can Tho too? Funny thing is I was only born there because my Mom was on here way back home to give me up to grandma. I guess I am lucky she changed her mind.
Yeah, I thought that was hilarious. I figure they didn't want them stolen off their scooters OR (and I like this one better) death by falling coconut is a real problem there.
Thanks, I have traveled Europe, but a place like Vietnam was very new to me.
I am sure I will too, at least my gut will. LOL.
Yeah well, my GF probablly wouldn't care for me comin home with some std. It wasn't for lack of offers though. If you ever wander around Saigon at night as a lone male, you will get dozens of offers for "massage boom boom'. Even from the cyclo drivers!
Sweet, maybe your dad is my dad. juz kiddin. My dad went over there as a merchant sailor running victory ships and then he stayed there to operate a floating power plant near Vung Tao. The power plant supplied electricity to a nearby base. I'd love to go back and fish all over SE asia.
Very cool report! Thank you for sharing this!
Is that a TEAM 57 shirt I see? TEAM 57 IN VIETMAN! WooHoo!
Truly a fascinating report on many levels.
Thanks for taking the time to post the pics.
That is one beautiful country. I remember how crystal clear the water of the South China Sea was.
thanks for the great "story"! was a good read. it's great how fishing is completely cross-cultural and uniting. my girlfriend is from thailand and i'd like to visit, but she said it's illegal to fish in the ocean there.
Really great read, I love the pics........thanks for sharing.........makes Nam seem more real to me.
OFG
Looks like an adventure for sure, vietnamese women are hot
