Hawaii Freshwater

[Stan Wright]

We've been seeing a lot of big fish in the 5 to 8 pound range. Two here, two there along the shoreline..... but they just fade off into the deep water as you approach.
The peacock bass should start spawning in the next few weeks. That's exciting fishing.

Caught lots of fish under 1 1/2 pounds, some 2 to 3 pounders, but the larger fish are not really aggressive at the moment. The big peacock bass ignore our lures, flys,... even live bait.

Still, catching 20 to 30 of the 1 to 2 pound peacock bass on light spinning tackle is lots of fun.
