Many viewers have written me asking to explain in detail the type of gear i use to catch my Bigeye Scads, known in Hawaii as Akule. To many local anglers this popular targeted species is much sought after as a challenging shoreline species that is commonly fished for by boat. For years fishermen have guarded their locations & fishing methods. In this video i'll try to demonstrate my methods of preparation of my gear & leadering system that i employ to target Akule. Took over a day of taking pictures to making video segments to put this together. The processing & editing took 2 days to complete. Because of the length of this video i'll break it up for you.

0:00-8::05 I'm showcasing the equipment i use for nighttime shoreline whipping down to the type of rod & reel i've chosen.

8:06-29:17 Showing the materials needed to put together pre-set whipping rigs for night whipping of Akule. Also how to correctly label different set-ups for quick reference.

29:18-33:45 Actual night video footage of Bigeye Scad Akule caught using the equipment highlighted and rigs made in the video.

33:46-34:34 Pictures of fish caught and a surprise spoiler.

The only information that i won't share are my locations. All anglers respect locations of others. Please remember that i'm sharing what works for me for my style of fishing. It may or may not work as well for you. Also you need to have faith in your abilities and in your equipment. I'm only recommending what has worked well for me, it's up to you to find what works best for you. I hope that some of my knowledge here will help others find their game. Mahalo! Christopher:)

(For those that have donated to my page, a BIG MAHALO! Please drop me a note so i know who you are as YouTube doesn't give me that information).
