End-of-2023 Fishing Travel Linkapalooza
Fishing travel news continues to flow freely, even at the end of the year, and we continue to scour the wires so you can focus on other things. Here are some relevant stories that you may have missed:
Clear to roll out new facial identity verification process, eliminating the need to stop at a Clear Pod – Clear continues to make our security process faster and less painful, but as it has become more popular it has slowed a little on occasion. This may help to remedy such minor delays.
‘Work to live, not live to work’: Why Americans are leaving to become digital nomads in Mexico – Mazatlán is clearly a city on the rise, and not just because it’s the gateway to Lake El Salto and Lake Picachos. Perhaps one day we too will be “digital nomads” in one of our favorite parts of the world.
‘A First in the Americas’: Scotch Brand The Macallan Cruises Into This Busy Airport With Brick and Mortar Store in an Untapped Market – There were already plenty of reasons to transit through Tocumen airport, one of our favorites, but now there’s another – world-class and exclusive whisky options.
When is the best time to visit Guatemala? – We’ve only been in February, but in 2024 we’ll go in November, and once our work schedules free up a bit we’ll likely try out some others – ideally to coincide not only with excellent fishing, but also prime weather for other activities.
Condor Airlines Expands Partnership with Alaska Airlines – If you’re already pursuing status on Alaska Airlines (for your next trip to Bear Trail Lodge!), you can aid that process with non-stop flights from the US to Europe.
Warren Sapp Attacked by Shark During Charter Fishing Trip – Be careful when lobstering, or any time there are toothy and/or aggressive critters in the water.
These Beautiful Fishing Lodges Now Offer MultiSport Adventures – We’re seeing more ecotourism and non-fishing options at traditional fishing and hunting lodges – including Grosse Savanne and Anglers Inn’s new Florida destination. While this might reduce available space, it also helps the operations survive and makes it easier to convince a non-fishing family member or friend to travel with you.
If you find an entertaining or educational fishing travel link send it our way — and if you haven’t already done so, now is the perfect time to plan your amazing 2024 fishing trip.
