Never thought I'd be watching fishing shows

Our neighbors were kind enough to introduce us to a documentary TV series out of Australia called A River Somewhere, and while I have no idea where the vast majority of the world could get ahold of this thing, it is, in a word, brilliant.

Two Aussie blokes, Tom Gleisner and Rob Sitch, traverse the world looking for great places to fish. The nice thing about the 13 episodes they filmed is, it's not JUST about fishing. They cover all the bits in between as well.

There is cultural commentary, scenery, exotic locations, the fishing of course, and the culinary wrap-up which is always interesting. All of this is packaged with their subtle and (for a show about rivers) often dry sense of humor. We particularly enjoyed an episode about Wyoming and had some good laughs at their entirely justifiable commentary on American existence. ("27 different types of eggs on the breakfast menu", "I ordered a bowl of fruit and the whole place went quiet")

A quick list of countries they visit: Australia (of course), New Zealand, the U.S., England, Scotland, Venezuela, Bhutan, Belize, India, and Italy.

If you can get ahold of this and enjoy a good travel show, I'd highly recommend it!
