The plan is simple:

• Fish the four continents (Africa, Asia, Europe, North America) where these species are natively found.

• See as many amazing things as possible.

• Have "one helluva time"! (meet new people, share experiences, and enjoy the journey)

 

Why?  Well, why not?!?!?

 

This might best be answered by another trout fisherman, John D. Voelker:

"I fish because I love to;

I love the environs that trout are found, which are invariably beautiful,
     and hate the environs where crowds of people are found, which are invariably ugly;

Because, in a world where most men spend their lives doing things they hate,
     my fishing is at once an endless source of delight and an act of small rebellion;

Because trout do not lie or cheat and cannot be bought or bribed or impressed by power,
     but respond only to quietude and humility and endless patience;

Because I suspect that men are going along this way for the last time,
     and I for one don’t want to waste the trip;

Because mercifully there are no telephones on fishing waters;

Because of all the television commercials, cocktail parties, and assorted social posturing I thus escape;

Because only in the woods can I find solitude without loneliness;

Because bourbon out of an old tin cup tastes better out there;

Because maybe someday I will catch a mermaid;

And, finally, not because I regard fishing as being so terribly important but because I suspect that so many other concerns of men are equally unimportant - and not nearly so much fun."
