Day 5: Fresh Catch


After countless failures, I succeeded in catching a flagfish by using hobo fishing with a bit of bread on a hook. It took several days of trial and error to get this rather unscientific formula to work.

In California, fishing is a huge pain because of licensing and seasonal requirements, but in the State of Hawaii, fishing is 100% free so it has a ubiquitous popularity on every shoreline. Even fish harvesting with nets and spears is legal, so often you see people wandering around the reef collecting food the ancestoral way.
