This is very sad indeed.

My husband and I go to Waikiki every year and have been doing this for quite some time now. We just returned 4 weeks ago and on our time on the beach we would sit and watch the locals go out on the wall of the beach, they take their pails, nets etc out there and catch all sorts of fish.

My husband was out near them but on this side of the wall as it to rough on the other side where they fish. He wanted to know what they all catch out there. The biggest thing is eels, my lord do they ever catch eels by the dozens. Triggers, Tangs, and everything inbetween what ever they can catch. They claim this is their food for eating but wow the amount they catch is unreal.

This goes on day after day after day. No one seems to be concerned in Waikiki about them doing this and so it continues.

We went to Haunuma Bay last year only to be so disappointed, there is no corals anywhere and very little colorful fish out there. Just some blue colored tangs and that is about it. Very sad but the Hawaiin reefs in my opinion are just about depleted of what they use to have many years ago.
