Whiping for Papio & Lai- Big Omilu T&R

Went back to the ocean to do more papio and lai fishing, but instead of early morning, it was a late afternoon run. Caught a bunch of lizard fish and lost a nice Omilu. Zach took the "Banana" out of his pocket and we hooked into a reel screamah dat put my small pole and reel to the test. I think Zach put the Banana in his ada pocket, because his reel broke shortly after. (P.S. For those non-fishermen out there... Bananas are considered bad luck.)

What kind of reel? Pole?

[MaukaMakai808]

@808singlefin A cheap Diawa children pole: 6-12 lb model that my cousin won in a fishing tournament. And a Shimano-Sienna 4000 FB reel.

@MaukaMakai808 I think its great to "C n R" and says a lot about the angler and his forward looking vision. We have more fun stalking and hunting, thats where it's at!

Great Job!

@grant5314 ya, the Omilus are running this summer. Caught and/or tagged over 20 papio and about 10 lai in the past 2 months.

Nice TnR with the Papio... been a while since I've had an Omilu on the other end of my line.
