Tasmania: Where the Anglers Aren't

Buried in this story about the crumbling roads of Tasmania is a startling statistic: only 114 Americans purchased fishing licenses in Tasmania in 2005-2006, out of a total of only 405 foreign anglers. Compare that to New Zealand’s 30,000 non-resident anglers, and it makes you want to book a trip right now.
