Finally found some time to fish. So I put the
kayak in the pickup and decided to try somewhere
new. The tide was dropping a whole half of foot, the
current was wrapping around a point I found; the wind
kept swinging widely from side shore, off shore, opposite
side shore; the swells kept popping up everywhere--only
1-3'--but predicted to be 25' on the Northshore by Sunday;
and the water temp sat a solid 78F.
I trolled around hoping to find a Trevally, but only nailed a tasty
Humuhumu Eleele. Love the meat on Tiggers. Plus a Aha Needlefish.
This is Oahu's west side. I'm here to figure out if
I can make a living here in my old field of engineering.
I'll tell you what... They got some fish
over here. The shallows have a variety of reef fish, including
big Trevallys that hunt in groups. Just beyond the reefs is
the deep blue sea with more year round game fish.
A couple of days ago I saw an 80lb Sailfish a Hawaiian nailed
on his yak.
I'm moving here very soon.
