Fly fishing in Hawaii (Oahu)

[thinhorn_AK]

Has anybody chased bonefish in Hawaii? If you have, can you give me some leads for finding a guide for a day or 2? I know there are a few guys from Hawaii who post here, maybe you know of some guides?

Thank you!!!

Can't help you with specifics but I will say that I am jealous. Supposed to be some of the biggest bones on the planet cruising those flats!

Yes. I have family on the N shore and have spent quite a bit of time waiving my fairy wand around down there.

Not a lot of fish, but giants. Lots of pressure in the areas where you can wade and fish them from shore.

The flats are all on the S side of the island, some on the E side. I have some intel I can send you if you want to send me a PM with a good email address.

Mike Hennessey is the man to talk to for a guided trip.

Fly fishing guide and light spinning tackle fishing guide for big Hawaiian bonefish. Located on the island of Oahu. After a short boat ride we jump out on the flats and start walking. We'll be on the hunt for the big green Hawaiian bonefish tailing and moving slowly through out the mangroves...

He'll be my guide when I return for GT's.

I didn't fish for them, but wading out last February while the family did a surf lesson I had several +24" bonefish cruise by my legs at Waikiki Beach

There's a fly shop in Honolulu that books guides for Bonefish & other species. I was there once & didn't do any fishing as I was unaware of it until after I was back home. That seems like a good way to go when on Oahu.

No guide leads but one cool thing about HI is you don't need a license to fish the oceans. Bring a fly rod and use the time change to your advantage to fish sunrise before the family wakes up!
