Chicken works best for me. Or shrimp.
Best bait for Papio/Ulua is Squid (Ika), Octopus (Tako), White Eel (Tohei) and live Goatfish (O'ama) and the best time to fish in Ewa Beach is when the tide is rising.
Tako (Octopus) and Puhi (Morey Eel) are the dead bait that most ulua are caught on; although I prefer live bait like Nenue, Menpachi, Hinalea, or Taape.
Largest dead bait for fishing pike are trout or eel. But the size of the dead bait is down to what you want to catch!
The best bait is Eel followed by bull lips, yes, bull lips. Crabs are very good at picking bait apart piece by piece. Eel is tough and long lasting followed by bull lips. However, you can slum with chicken necks as many "chicken neckers" from across the Bay do. Forget the sock. Crabs have eyes and will eat what they can see. They are bottom feeders.
Yes They Do Eat Eel's
The hook you use to eel is a 4/10 hook and you just bait it with some real juicy meat and before you start you dip the wrapper in the water and then it will attract all the eels enjoy eeling!
I know some Koura(Fresh Water Crayfish, White bait, common bully, the long and short tailed eel, lots of macro invertebrates such as shrimp, back swimmers, may flies and stone fly.
it ranges from clam to small squid and you will need something new for another tipe of eel. ask a tackel shop in the area about it. For feshwater eels I use meat (steak) or offal such as liver. I usually find steak that has been left to go bad (I mean really stinky) works the best.
Eel
The Best FishSome say the best fish to fish for are eel, carp, catfish, trout, salmon, whitefish, silure, zander, perch and pike+muskey. Others say bass, whether it's rock, smallmouth, white or largemouth, is the best for fishing. The best fish to catch for bait is a minnow or shiner.They make exelent walleye bait.The best tropical fish for sights is the parrot fish. It is very colourful.Other thoughts:The worst one while fishing is the sunfish. It just takes your bait. It bites a crumb off your bait without touching the hook. It does that until all your bait is gone.Never try and eat your tropical catch. They are usually poisonous.Never ever try and eat a pufferfish if you cleaned it yourself unless you are specially trained.
It would depend on the species of shark. If it was a baby shark that only ate small crabs and shrimps, the eel. If it was a great white shark then the shark.
It's a Japanese eel. It has white flesh and is eaten grilled, tempura fried, or steamed.
