Captain Gus Ramirez caught this Dolphin a few weeks ago but I was not able to get the pictures on the blog while I was away.

HAWAIIAN BONE FISH

I hired a guide in Hawaii to take me fishing for bone fish. All the bone fishing in Hawaii is done with a fly rod, and since I have never fly fished before the guide brought me a spinning rod.  He could not get any live bait so he stopped in China Town and bought some dead shrimp.  I was surprised to see that he used the same setup that I use for bone fish, a kale hook with a sliding weight. On the first cast I caught this small bone fish but that was it, not another fish all morning. The Hawaiian bone fish are supposed to be bigger then the Keys bone fish.  They average 6 to 7 pounds in the area we were at.
