Ernie Schwiebert's lifesize Illustration of a landlocked salmon he caught from Argentina's Traful River—on display over the fireplace at Arroyo Verde Lodge. There has been some controversy over how large that fish actually was . . . with the upper limit at over 19 pounds. Landlocked were introduced to Patagonian waters from Maine's Sebago Lake in 1904 . . . a fact that plays a large role in my novel, "Rolling Back the River," which will be officially published on Tuesday, 2/17.
