Over the weekend we ventured over to the windward side to find some smallies. We started at the dam of the lake and worked our way down towards the elementary school. The fish were caught in shallow water with SPINNERBAITS... yes spinner baits.

Smallie Hunt Cont...
Today after taking a stressful physiology 302 exam, we headed to the lower part of Manoa Stream and were whacking them on grubs and plastic worms... We caught around 15 overall and there were a few that were close to 2lbs. Overall a great day!!!

I had no idea smallies were in the manoa stream. How far down do they come, by uh dorms?

Ya they are everywhere in there but mostly down by the UH area or the dorms.

Man that looks like fun! I'd love to catch some smallies!

Those are a bit too large for my Tenkara rod.. were there any "smaller" ones?
LOL

Those samllies look nice!!

Can you let me know where I can park my car for Manoa stream? Do you recommand parking in UH?

I dont know if parking at UH is a good idea because they will ticket anything that doesn't have a permit... Maybe try down on Dole St... then walk to the stream...

Let me know how it goes!
