In Reply to: RE: I lived on the windward side of Oahu in a little town called Waimanalo. posted by Cut-Throat on December 3, 2021 at 14:53:36:
seeing a bonefish, or O'io as they are called in Hawaii. We used to call the O'io and other tuna like fish open ocean fish. They didn't stay near the coral all day and usually came closer to shore at night, late evening, or early morning.. The O'io was mostly caught by surf casting folks with super long poles and a bell to warn of a bite. I never did that, but my brother did catch two hammerhead sharks while surf casting. My beach was a popular surf casting spot actually.
The 1944 book pictured below has an excellent section on catching O'io, but it doesn't cover fly fishing for them. I never saw any fly fishing in Hawaii before 1970.
My original life dream was to fly for Aloha Airlines and have a cabin on Molokai in order to get away from the crowds. Well, I ended up in Alaska for 49 years and flying for a bunch of discount air cargo companies. I did end up stream fly fishing for big salmon though, and I miss that now in Washington State.
