Kevin, Now your talkin'! Good to hear from you! I passed up Birch to try Quartz lake. Didn't get any big rainbows, but did get 3 limits of really tasty silvers. They were all about 15" or so, but man what fun on the old ultra lite rod! We did catch a nice char about 4 lbs. Hey I'm heading out to Harding on or about Saturday. You interested in trying it out? I pulled one 19 lb char out last year (21 wieghed in the net), and lost a 35+ lb. laker next to the boat, who knows this year eh!
KCommando- Where are you fishing on the big island? I sure do miss those nice dollies and rainbows! I lived 4 years in King Salmon and had a great time with those monsters.
