No fly for these, I used a speargun. I have always been interested in learning how to fly fish though.

I wonder if we can spear fish for salmon up here... Thatd be fun to do, find a clear river more than 4 feet deep and just shoot em. They get so thick I'm sure I could get 3 at once easy.

I have thought about this many a time. Even something like bird creek by the big rock.

you can do it but legally you have to be completely submerged when you shoot.

If you aren't doing anything with the one on the left in the front row, I'll dispose of him for you.

And by dispose I mean steam him in black bean sauce.

Nice roundup.  There's something to be said about inserting yourself into the middle of a foodchain and still coming out on top.  The less gear you use, and deeper you go... the better the fish taste!  Where was that at?

It was on the Westside. I still have to Cigua check that roi.

I'm interested in what kind of fish you have there. Can you tell us less informed types. I know there are no Salmon, Halibut or Yellow Eye :-)
Oh, and what the hell is that green stuff underneath them?

Until that day,

Lol about the grass.

I know their Hawaiian names, so I will try my best to give their real names.

From the bottom left: Uhu/Parrotfish, Kumu/goatfish,Omilu/ trevally, Pualu/surgeon fish, Enenue/rudderfish.

Top right is another surgeon fish/Naenae  and a peacock grouper. The grouper (roi) is considered a pest here. On the top right those are parrots as well. Known here as Rock Uhu or Pananu

Looks fun. I'm going out tomorrow in Kaneohe Bay. Hopefully the surf at the reef won't be too bad.

Thanks for the names. Are they all white meat fish?

No problem. Also, yes I would think that almost everyone of those would be considered a white fish.



The big parrotfish you see is a great eating fish. Like Brundoggie mentioned with black bean sauce or done Chinese style.

Is there any difference between fresh and salt water as far as the regs go?

5 AAC 75.028. Use of underwater spear
In salt water, spears may be used to take fish, subject to applicable seasons and bag limits, by persons who are completely submerged.

The regs right now don't authorize a spear gun but ADF&G is considering modifying the law to allow their use.  I couldn't find anything about fresh water.

Dude, there weren't any. In fact I haven't seen any in a long time. I miss eating Kole.
