That is such a large area you are thinking of visiting, however, and with such a large variety of fishing opportunities, that it might help those of us giving you suggestions, if we had a better idea about the type of fishing you and (presumably your wife?) are looking for. Large rivers or smaller ones? Lakes perhaps? Public water or private? Do you want to walk in (read as "hike" in) or fish road side? Are you looking for a drift boat float fishing trip with a guide, a walk-in trip, or something other?
