today I walked downstream from the Chevron on E. Manoa and came up by the bridge on Date St. by the UH Lo'i. Tried everything in the arsenal but couldn't raise a single smallmouth. I've heard theres smallmouth bass in the stream. Saw a good size koi maybe a pound and a half.

Where on the stream do you guys normally fish?

I've never fished Manoa Stream but I was always under the impression that the SMBs were way upstream closer to Lyon Arboretum.

PS Don't forget to try for the Jaguar Cichlids and Pacu in the UH Quarry Pond. :wink:

I didn't even know people can fish in that thing.


As for fishing the Manoa, I've fished the same section as you have except I started by the high school down by the H1 and stopped at Manoa Valley District Park due to water conditions. I may go back this saturday or sunday and see how the water is now and restart where I left off. I've only caught one smb around the 13 - 14in range at the falls before UH. Usually produces better at any stream if you fish upstream. More than welcomed to join me if I do go.

Monoa stream had a huge fish kill around a year ago from someone dumping chemicals. It wiped out almost all the smallmouth.

I wish I knew that a while ago. Maybe the pop is a bit better further upstream?

I read about the Jaguar Cichlids in that pond...but I tried looking on Google Map but haven't found the pond yet. Where is it?

yeah, where is that pond? I seen a picture of some guy with a giant pacu, looked like it was close to 20lbs
