What a great looking fish!! "Illiamna Pinkie"...read a book called "Gamble at Illiamna" by the people who created a first class flies-only lodge up there in AK. Great Read and I haven't read it in sometime....thanks for jogging my memory. May have to go pull it out tonight and start reading it again! dk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
