■ Have you ever accidentally hooked a sea turtle and didn’t know what to do? Have you ever seen a turtle in distress and wanted to help, but weren’t sure how? The Fishing Around Sea Turtles (FAST) program supports fishermen and the recreational fishing community by promoting best-practice guidelines to assist hooked or entangled turtles. The program also includes practical fishing tips suggested by fishermen (such as the use of barbless circle hooks) that may reduce injuries or the potential for interactions with sea turtles. It’s OK to Help! It’s OK to help a sea turtle in distress, one that is entangled, or one that you’ve accidentally snagged. You may physically help to save a life. It’s OK! The primary cause of death to stranded Hawaiian sea turtles is fishing…

■ In 1944, when I was 9 or 10 years old, I lived in mauka Kalihi Valley in a small Filipino community with my dad. Now, more than 70 years later, I can reflect back on how I spent my spare time way back then, years before they invented TV. I made my own kites and flew them. I made slingshots and became very effective at using them. I learned to climb coconuts trees, mango trees, rosy apple trees, purple plum trees—most of which grew abundantly alongside the Kalihi River. My buddies and I dammed up the river with large boulders, and I learned to swim in the pond we created. Then we built a canoe from a strip of tin roof. We made paddles and rowed the canoe around…

■ Taking a cue from the successful impact of oysters on water quality in places like the East Coast’s Chesapeake Bay, the DLNR, Division of Aquatic Resources (DAR), and Kualoa Ranch are conducting a study to see how oysters might positively impact the water of O‘ahu’s iconic Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor once supported abundant native oyster populations (Pinctada radiada) and an introduced species (Crassostrea virginica) in the 1860s through the 1920s. Pearl Harbor is the largest natural estuary in Hawai‘i and historically has been an important fishery and breeding area for many species of fish and other forms of aquatic life, including oysters. Excessive dredge harvesting during the times of the Hawaiian Monarchy and sediment-laden runoff from changing land use during the mid-1900s severely comprised the oyster settlement capability and…

■ My name is Eddie Tinoga, and this is my fishing tale. I bought a 20’ fishing boat and started studying how to catch big game. I took the boat out to the sandbar in Kane‘ohe, just to get the feel of it. My friend took me out on his boat out of Wai‘anae. We went 10 miles out and came back because it was windy and rough. We left the harbor at 6 a.m. and came back at around 8. That was the farthest out I’d ever been. I work six days a week, so it’s hard for me to take the boat out. Recently my wife gave me the thumbs up to go, so I went. I called a couple of friends, and they showed up at my…

Creeper Regains Its Hawaiian Name ■ For more than 100 years, there has been no known Hawaiian name for the endangered forest bird now commonly called the Hawai‘i creeper (Loxops mana). Noah Gomes, a recent graduate of the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo with a master’s degree in Hawaiian language and literature, recently put forth convincing evidence that he had rediscovered the true Hawaiian name for this species. Recently, Hawaiian researchers, wildlife managers and elected representatives joined in a naming ceremony to honor this distinctive bird in the Pu‘u Maka‘ala Natural Area Reserve (NAR) where the ‘alawi resides. “Rediscovering the traditional name of the ‘alawi strengthens the close relationship of Hawaiian culture with our native plants and animals. This celebration fills us with pride and a sense of kuleana to…

Novice cooks and gourmet seafood chefs will love the tempting simplicity of the more than three hundred recipes that are offered in “FRESH CATCH OF THE DAY... from the FISHWIFE.” An extensive array of Fishwife’s Tips will guide readers to success—from choosing fresh seafood, to safe handling and preparation, to innovative cooking in the kitchen and barbecuing and smoking seafood outdoors. This, the second work of author and “Fishwife” Shirley Rizzuto, spanned the last decade of the 20th century. As we enter the next millennium and increasing attention is given to healthy living for longer life, scientists and dietitians predict we will turn more and more to the oceans of the world for healthy eating. With this in mind, “FRESH CATCH OF THE DAY” will most certainly become a popular…

Mako Shark Jumps Aboard ■ Sleeping Troy Keolanui was jarred awake by a call from the U.S. Coast Guard. They wanted to know if he was sinking off Pohoiki on the Puna Coast. Troy thought he had woken from a bad dream. It was no dream. Troy assured the Coast Guard that he was neither fishing nor taking on water and gave them the cell number for Dylan Gapp, the fisherman who bought the Warrior Works, his former 22’ Force. Wanting to know the rest of the story, Troy called Dylan the next day. Dylan explained that he was ika-shibi fishing during the night. At 11 p.m. he and his mate, Nico, had just landed a 60-lb ‘ahi. Shortly thereafter, a line went tight with a large fish on. About…
