Where to take a Pope on his day off?

According to this article from down under about a rumored Papal visit, he might enjoy a bit of fishing. Via Northernstar.com
"If he did come, we would do all we could to make his stay memorable."
Ballina Chamber of Commerce spokesman Brian Marriott said if the Pope was to visit, he could do a spot of fishing off the wharf at Lance Ferris Park.

"He could stay at the Ramada Hotel and Suites and we could give him a special area there in the penthouse - I'm sure management could arrange that," Mr Marriott said.
No word as of yet if the Holy Father prefers nymphing to throwing dries. Rumor has it that the fly fishing tabloid press would pay big bucks for a verified photo of the Pontiff using a strike indicator.
