    Hey Ryan a true story about the Aweoweo, during King Kalākaua’s reign and while he was away in San Francisco he got sick and died in the Palace Hotel. A large aweoweo school bunched up in the bay which is weird because they are nocturnal. The old people said that sea of red fish like blood was an omen that King was dead.
    The ocean and the Hawaiian are one and so one needs to respect it. My tutu wahine ( grandma) always drilled it in to me as we picked limu( edible seaweed) or made our own rock salt on the seashore of Waianae respect the ocean don’t turn your back to it, don’t over hunt take only what you need.

    Hey Braddah Ryan! Love your channel. Out of respect for the locals who grew up in this area, please refrain from showing background/coastline footage. I watched the first few minutes and figured out your exact location. Your channel not only shares your passion but it also reveals hidden fishing spots to the masses. Just think... the fish don’t spook for a reason. Let’s keep it that way. Aloha! 🤙🏾

Ryan neva shoot dat much but now 1 thousand other guys going go rape da spot. I love the videos but he catching mean hate from us Ka'u guys. Sometimes common sense gotta kick in and This Ryan guy gotta respect da Ohana o Ka Aina. I see he gotta make money off of likes and hits but its destroying our livelihood for us down South!!!!

      To be honestly with today’s technology if a person really want to find a location that is filmed and shown thru social media. It’s called the dark web and you can find and do just about anything there. How do you think the authorities find a crime?! That is the reason why when people don’t want to show their fishing/hunting spots location it is pointless. In fact unfortunately one youtuber’s spouse’s place of work was discovered and vandalized because they did not like some of the comments he make about television shows. I am not trying to be a wise ass, but just wanted people to be informed.

    Ryan, I've been enjoying watching your videos and how-to's, and appreciate your consideration for taking what you need. As a fellow BI spearfisherman to another, I do request, however, that you be mindful of the coastal footage you show on your videos. While I realize that you don't say where you're going or where you're diving at, you show people enough and people will figure it out and mention it in the comments. There's a reason why places like that still have fish there.

    Cool! Your enjoying what Big isle fishing is all about! So many different styles of fishing, and the island is so massive that there's tons of shoreline areas to explore and places that probably have rarely if ever been fished or dove! So, like I mentioned in my comment the other day, can you begin to imagine what it was like for me with my Force 30 going on 4-5 day and night fishing trips??!!!!!! Like I had said, I used to love going on my "around the island" fishing trips!!! I'd basically troll the 40 fathom ledge for Ono the whole time, which is so close to shore on the Big isle you could throw a rock and hit the lava on the shoreline! I did hundreds of these fishing trips over the years and so I got intimate knowledge of all the opelu koa's and the bottom structure. In the late 70's and early 80's, before the ciguatera toxin became a problem with ulua, I could always depend on ulua fishing from my boat if my preferred fish species were not around, primarily pelagic, and of course on the Big isle ahi was how you could put some gross tonnage in the fish boxes! Bottom fish like paka and onaga was really dependant on currents and other things, but it was incredible in certain places on the island with huge paka schools and onaga, though they are so deep! Before the stino porpoise showed up and learned that they could steal most of our bottom fish right from our hooks and basically ruined it, it was meca for bottom fishing in some spots!!!! So when all else failed or the fishing was just really slow, I used to anchor in some secret spots and basically palu or chum 5, 5 gallon buckets of palu with the bag down just above the bottom. After several hours you would have so much ulua under the boat it was just insane!!!!! I had a huge Ike ma or live bait well on my custom built boat, and I would catch live bait like opelu and akule and flill it up!!! For ulua fishing, I found live halalu, the small juvenile akule to be best! An older local fisherman taught me this whole fishing method, which he had been doing from boats in a certain area from back in the 50's!!! Since we were catching ulua in the 60-90 plus pound range, it only took so many fish to have 3000 lbs! There were massive schools of ulua, and I'm sure still are, especially because once the ciguatera toxin became known to be in large ulua, the commercial fishing viability for them stopped! Understand I only fished for ulua occasionally like this because it was not a target species for me as a commercial fisherman. I know places where there are so much ulua it's ridiculous! Places where I could troll by inside of the 40 fathom ledge a little where there's pinnacles that come straight up to 20 or 30 ft of water and it's a cliff drop off straight down to 100 fathoms or more! These are in really rough water where it's super windy on trade winds and really gnarly for shipwreck and going onto the rocks!!!! I mean there's huge uluas everywhere and 50 to 100 feet off of them there's Ono and Mahi Mahi and big ahi and huge marlin!! If I got too shallow when I'd troll by, I'd have my five big game rods and 2 handlines go off with 80-90 lb. plus uluas!!!!! If I wanted, I could have kept making passes by the spot and get 5-7 huge uluas on over and over!!! I was Ono trolling this spot once with my friend and we hooked up and caught a huge blue marlin in the 800- 900 lb. Size!!!! It became a famous fishing story told from the Big isle to Kauai, as we couldn't get it in the boat and it was eaten by a school of tiger sharks including huge tigers bigger than the marine biologists believe they get!!! I got the courage to dive this spot once, when there was no wind and very little swell and not too strong of a current. It was the heaviest place I ever dove in my life!!! The mix of huge schools of ulua with 100 plus lb. Ones swimming around, and then just outside of them ono and mahi's and shibi and big 200 plus lb ahi swimming around with big schools of opelu, and several marlin including big 500 plus lb. "donkeys"!!! It was a biomass of so much fish in such a small area it was incredible!!! There were reef sharks of different species, and then I saw a few really big tiger sharks too! I had massive uluas swimming right up to me but it was just too dangerous to spear fish!!! I've done it before in situations where there are huge schools of ulua and unless you get a stone shot, it just gets ripped up by sharks and the potential for a feeding frenzy is just too great where you could get bit by accident or maybe not?!! I used to look at this spot from way up on the island at 3000-4000 ft. elevation and see it miles below off the coast, and I just knew it was an epic fishing koa and would be loaded with ulua and more!!! It's so remotely located that it's only accessible by a boat with range and one that's extremely sea worthy in really windy and rough water!!! For years I'd look at it far far below through my binoculars and tell myself one day I'm going to have my own custom built fishing boat and go there and fish that spot!!!! I had heard of people hiking down to this area and camping, but then you would have to hike all the way back up and it's really a long hike and extremely difficult! Years later this area became one of my favorite fishing area's!! It's so rough there,that very few boats would go there, and your totally on your own in this place! No coast guard and no radio coms with anyone and this was long before GPS and cell phones and no cell service would reach there but maybe now??! When I looked in upon the landscape from my boat years later when I finally got to this place, it was so raw and so wild, I could just imagine seeing a huge T-Rex walking on the land!!! So I gave this place a name, ... "land of the dinosaurs"!!!! Or,"Jurassic Park"!! Not only for what looked like an ancient pre-historic, volcanic landscape, but because the fish I was catching there were huge, giants of every species!!!!! I know of an ulua close to or just over 200 lbs. that was caught here, and several 1000 lb. Blue Marlin!!!!! Schools of pelagic fish migrate through this area and it's just mind blowing when it really happens!!! Giant gorilla ahi and po' o nui or big eye tuna schools off shore and huge marlin!!!! 100 plus lb. Ono have been caught there and 80- 90 lb. Mahi ! Every species of fish just get huge!!! A place of dreams!! On the most isolated land mass on earth!!

      @RoyceGetit roga Dat bruddah. Spent 40 + years commercial fishing from big isle al the way up to midway island in the northwestern Hawaiian islands. Up there is all a sanctuary now. In the old days I was fishing up in the leewards, and it was just incredible!!! Ulua schools like nothing I've seen anywhere else. The big 100 plus ones beat up and chased the sharks away!!! Crazy, ancient Hawaii kine!!! In the early 80's I had the 9th Force 30 out of the mold custom built for me in Hilo and it was a dream boat that I loved fishing mostly on the big island where I lived for a long time!North shore molokai is epic too!! Been diving and fishing there since the early 70's. Dennis Okada turned me on to a lot of freedive spearfishing places and stuff. A legend for sure!!!! Taught me and another great freedive spearfiherman friend of mine, Wendell Ko, the secret stone shot on giant ulua!!! So many legendary Hawaiian waterman and families from all the islands I've been so blessed to be friends with over the years, too many to mention them all! RIP Henry Ayau, Gene Higa... we love the ocean so much in Hawaii nei!!!

  • @austinallen1108
    @austinallen1108 4 года назад

    Here in north carolina, the only small fish species that I go out and just 'collect' like the kole are spottail pinfish. Most people pass these fish by because the ribs take up a lot of the fillet, but if you take off the head and fry them, you can pick a lot more meat off, and it's comparable to hogfish and mangrove snapper. Usually you catch them fishing, but it's just as easy to find a jetty or pier and 3 prong a few off of it. They get much bigger than kole, so you only need 3-5 for a good meal. Anyways, good luck hunting, and maybe you could take another try at shooting some wahoo, since you have such a good record with them, lol.

    Nice secluded spot. Early on in the video I have two questions regarding the shore fishing tackle. First, that looked like a well used hook, probably caught a few on it. Has he sharpened it? Second it is a circle hook with a large offset. Why? A circle hook is designed so it will greatly lessen the chance of hooking in a fishes gut. An offset circle hook defeats this purpose. The second guy is using a regular circle hook.
    Aweoweo have tiny scales but they are so worth it to scale them. My family’s favorite fish to eat in Hawaii. Just scale them and put them on a hot grill, I like them way more than menpachi. Mahalo for the great video

      But it should be the one that has two stripes and white Dots with yellow dorsal fins, there another one that is similar looking which was the one you shot double with the one kole, that’s not the one , it had to be white dots and two white stripes on the face and behind the gills that’s the good one

    Where I live we love mullet but they are sometimes considered trash fish. They are very hard to catch on a fishing rod so we mainly get them by net and sometimes spear.

  • @thomasobet34
    @thomasobet34 4 года назад

    How to get those red fish scales off is to put them over a fire for the fire to soften the scales. And use a fork or a spoon to scoop the scales off. Just few seconds over the fire. And now it'll be easy to fry and eat the skin with the meat. Yummy.

    To catch aquarium fish in Hawaii is super easy if you just go look in the calm flat shallows (2-5 feet with rock structure) at night with lamp and nets. You'll get plenty. Make sure you bring a five gallon bucket with a bubbler to keep them alive. When they get too big for the aquarium you just take them back and get new smaller ones. You can catch any species including eels and slipper lobster.

    Try manini or pakuikui it’s like a larger kole with an orange circle on the tail. I’ve heard the fish is great but the orange circle part can be bitter tasting when fried. Also helpful hint is cook the kole first then cook the reds in the same oil haha kole let’s off all it oils into the oil and gives the other reds a great taste 🤙🏽
