As for the fly rod... they hit everything.... keeping them hooked was the problem.
It was nice sitting there on the boat fishing while everyone on the street was stuck in traffic.

I fished right upstream of the bridge on Ala Moana Blvd. On Friday, I caught 2 nice papio and my first ever Lai. Today, I caught 2 even nicer papio and some type of snapper. Shaped exactly like a Taape, but didn't have stripes. I saw many barracudas, but they wouldn't bite. Also saw a lot of mullet.
Good fun on UL spinning tackle. I used a 1/16 oz. jighead with a 2" black or clear curly tail grub. I retrieved it as fast as I could reel while jerking the rod erratically.
All fish were released, and that's not only because I was at the Ala Wai.
