How about fishing?


Don't know, John. On both islands Oahu and Kauai, I saw guys with buckets of stuff on the beach. They had some pretty stout rods casting out into the ocean, but I didn't see anybody reeling anything in. I imagine the real fishing is further out.


I suppose you could get a head boat trip and maybe catch something. On one of our Disney cruise I
went out on a fishing trip - a head boat with about 20 people on it. Spent half a day out there,and
only one fish was caught, a little ten-inch something or other. What a waste. But the boat ride was
fun.

They catch Blue Trevally off the shore at times. I only caught small fish
when I have shore fished in the Islands.

Have you ever eaten one of those? Remember that little RC Duck I showed you? Can you imagine eating
that?

Some people will eat anything. Remember that "Jaws" guy in the old James
Bond movies?

I went out on a $25 a head boat the last time I was in Hawaii. I was
very surprised at how nice it was, considering the price. We were out
for five hours, caught a mess of fish, and the mate cooked a bunch of
them for our lunch. I suppose if we hadn't caught anything, we would
have been served bologna sandwiches.

As with your trip, the boat ride was fun, with spectacular vistas of the
island and the ocean.

If I were young and had an opportunity to relocate to Hawaii, I'd
already be there.

I think Hawaii is too far away for rec.boats. You'd be spending a lot of money flying back and forth

One of the guys I worked with at IBM lived in Hawaii for 10 years
(retired Navy). He says the novelty wears off pretty quickly. It is a
very expensive place to live.



A guy who worked for me at the teachers union was offered the top slot
at the Hawaii Teachers Assn, and took the job. He was out there for five
or six years until he got an offer for the top job at a much larger
stateside association. We noticed the price of gasoline was higher when
we were out there, but grocery store prices were the same. Real estate
was through the roof.
