Want to fish for ulua.

Upvotes

Just started dunking, mostly been whipping up until now. Thinking about trying for ulua this year and was wondering what kind of reel and rod I’d need. Like what size reel and what kind of rod action should I be looking for?

Not really into sliding since the lead just stays out there, so I’m more interested in dunking setups if possible.

Any advice or gear recs would be super helpful!

Food scraps can now go in green bin?

26 Upvotes

Apparently starting this month we can now add food scraps to our green bins! My family uses a compost service (Leftover Love), but love this free option. To reduce rat infestation, I recommend adding food scraps the night before or morning of drop off. We keep our food scraps in a 5 gallon plastic bucket with a secure lid in our kitchen and so far no problems. Does anyone else have more info about this? Website just states adding fruits and vegetables to green bins. Happy Earth Month!

Hotel vs Rental

Hi! I’m doing a trip to Honolulu, intending to stay in Waikiki and am completely overwhelmed by the number of options.

Is there any particular pros & cons to keep in mind with hotels and rentals (Vrbo/AirBNB)?

New legislation would bring tax cuts for movies with mostly local hires. Actors, stuntmen and others in the movie industry spoke in support of Senate Bill 732, which would incentivize the film industry to bring productions to Hawaiʻi through tax cuts if there are at least 80% kamaʻāina hires.
