I require a 'ForwardAssist'... A sponsor who can, among other things, navigate the turbid seas of bureaucratic visa requirements...a country, corporation, agency, business, or friend(s) who will champion my cause...which is to report virtually the art, tales, lives, songs and good recipes of fishing folks the world over... I have, with minimal damage to my person, already traversed most of the northern hemisphere and much of the southern... I lack, as usual, sufficient funds and at this late date many sturdy trekking days...yet I believe, on the basis of my health, fishing prowess and artistic conduct, considered in relation to my life, that I am uniquely qualified and posses the will and the PLUCK to accomplish the three A's... Alaska, Australia and Africa...

VTY,

Marc Forrest - a feral son of Oregon

- The little sum of life forbids the raveling of lengthy hopes...
