Hawaiian GT Action
Aaron Arizo:
Nice fish Nate!
Thanks again Charlie for taking me out. Definitely a grind out there looking for the fish. Getting that fish on the last drift of the day made it all worth it.
Mark Tamim:
Next time I'm in Hawaii, I'm gonna look you guys up!!! Thanks for posting great reports!

If you wanna catch fish on Big Island of Hawaii, you gotta make looong hikes and sleep on bare lava rocks with a smooth rock for a pillow. Or you could just go fishing with Charlie on Oahu!
My friends best GT yet at right around 30kilos. He's a big guy at 6'3" and the fish still looks big!

Howzit Guys,
Here's some action from Hawaii. Things have been a little slow lately but guys are still picking them off. My buddy Duane recently tied the knot and we introduced his best man who was in town to GT Popping. First cast ever for him with a GT Rod and Lure and he hooks up not a GT but still counts as you can't have that first cast back lol. He would go on to hookup into two more fish but they both shake him off, great effort from the new guy!
Duane hooks up early and puts one in the boat with a little banter from his best man ;D

The guys out in Kauai have been picking off some fun size GT's off the shore.....

We've been hard at work promoting GT Popping in Hawaii and this past weekend we did a demo at The Hawaii fishing and seafood festival. We let spectators try out different popping rods and lures. Lots of fun for everyone.
Our demo crew Duane, myself, Aaron, Brian, and Ladd.

I finally get out to do some shoreline fishing and hook up into a catch of a lifetime, I land a nice yellowfin tuna from the sand at a beach near my house. I drag the fish back to my truck, ask some local fisherman to take some quick pics and drive home stopping on the way for some ice. I soak it all up and crack a beer at 800am in the morning to celebrate ;D.

Last but not least finally did some Bass fishing with the kids and my son hooks into his first peacock bass, with a little help from dad ;)
Aloha,

I noticed you've started using the SWB stellas, how are they holding up? Aswel as the previous model?
