Hi Mike,

Hinemaia! Wow, I never new that. I never saw anything on the road map except Hatepe. Cool! I think I knew about brook trout there, but I thought that they were more found in the streams that run into the lake on the opposite side from the dam, where access was much more limited. Being without boat, car or much funding at the time I was kind of stuck to where my thumb could take me in the Taopo town area. I fished in the river below the dam, but didn't do too well there (typical for me). You have a wonderful fishing environment there, you lucky sonofagun!
