Here are Oahu fishing news reports for March. As March comes closer, bottom fishing is expected to pick up. Papio are still active off the shore, but the bite is less prolific. The spring and winter trolling seasons have been slow. Billfish and aku were caught in smaller numbers, but not consistently. Reports indicate that small ahi and shibi are still being caught off Oahu this week. Deep 7 snappers can also be caught by kawakawa, nabeta, and kawakawa. Bottom fishing is the best option, and the bite will last through April.
Papio bite dried up completely after August storm
Papio bite and oio spots have suddenly dwindled since August closed, and the recent storm has caused muddy flats and changed the structure of some spots. The bite and oio spots should be improved by the next storm. So keep your eyes out! You can filet Papio and make sushi from it.
Papio is still being caught from the shore
Papio still get caught off Oahu's shores at the right tides, despite a disappointing oama year. But they are skeptical this year. They are more skittish than normal, mainly due to the stormy, humid weather. During that time, the papio were in smaller numbers, and they began to hunt for new oama once the storms passed. After that, the oama were piled high and the inshore fishing slows down. The stragglers are not bothering to swim in, allowing lure fishermen to catch a nice sized papio.
The Papio seasons began late and finished late
The Oahu papio season has ended and started late this year. In fact, Oama have not been caught since fall 2016. The papio and oama seasons on Oahu have been late this year, partly because the La Nina has not yet stopped. However, fishing in general continues to be affected even though the weak La Nina has not yet stopped. The bad news is the 2020 season could be one of most difficult oama/papio seasons since recent memory.
Papio season will be less active unless the Oama come in
This year's oama seasons began in July and ended in September. Many believed that the La Nina effect that has been affecting fishing over the last few years had ended before summer, but the current situation suggests that La Nina is still in play. Unless the Oama enter late in the season, the Oama season may be lower than usual.

How To
How to Fish in Freshwater
Freshwater fishing involves the capture of fish from freshwater sources like lakes, rivers, streams and ponds. The most common types of fish caught include bass, catfish, carp, crappie, trout, sunfish, walleye, perch, pike, muskie, eel, and many others. There are several different methods used to catch these species of fish. There are many methods that can be used to catch these fish, including trolling (casting), trolling, spinnerbaits (spinnerbaits), flyfishing and baitcasting.
Finding a good spot to catch fish is the first step in any fishing endeavor. This usually means choosing a place close to the source of your water supply. Next you must decide what kind of equipment you want to use.
Live bait should look like food to fish, so that they will eat it. Live bait includes worms, minnows, crickets, frogs, leeches, bloodworms, grasshoppers, and other small insects.
Artificial lures include baits made from plastic, wood, feathers and metal. Artificial lures can come in many different sizes. They mimic natural prey like minnows, crawfish and shiners as well as grubs and other aquatic animals. Lures are popular because they require little skill to throw them in the water. Easy to set up, and easy to retrieve when they reach their target.
Casting can be a good option if your preference is not to use live bait. Casting is one the most straightforward ways to catch fish. It is very easy to do and doesn't require any special skills.
You will need a rod, reel and line. A simple pole can be used to cast. Simply hold the rod vertically over the water to cast. Slowly lower the rod's tip until it touches water. The line will begin unwinding from the reel once it reaches the water. After the line reaches its maximum length, let go of the rod. The lure will then fall back into water.
Trolling is another method for catching fish. Trolling involves moving a lure through the water using a boat.
Fishing is fun, rewarding and enjoyable. There are many options for fishing. Each has its pros and cons. Some methods are easier than others, but they all require practice.
