Judging from the photo of the boat that AJ was on it could cost anywhere from maybe $400.00 - $700.00 just to fuel up - not including food, ice, beer, etc...Those mahimahi would probably last the average family here about 2-3 months - we love to eat fish here in Hawaii. Come back to Hawaii, fish with us and offer to pay for expenses for the day and I'll throw one back for you...Austin I just checked some of your previous posts and you said you used to live here so I would think that you if anyone would know how sustenance fishing is an important part of the culture here and that the high cost associated with it turns almost every recreational fisherman into a part-time commercial fisherman but everyone is entitled to their opinion. RANT OFF...
Nice catch AJ!
