Hanapa'a = Hook Up in Hawaiian.

I found some videos of a couple of online fishing friends of mine. I remember Michael and I were chatting and I told him I know people who paddle out in kayaks to catch yellowfin tuna, mahimahi, wahoo, trevally and amberjacks. They even landed an almost 200lb marlin on their tandem kayak!

Well...here's proof.

"I hope it's not a shark"





Yellowfin Tuna (anything under 100lb is called "shibi" locally)





194lb marlin





Makahiki Tournament Day 5 (Common Dolphinfish "mahimahi", Greater Amberjack "kahala", Giant Trevally "ulua")
