Some days the fish bite on every cast.  Other days you seem to be casting into a vast wasteland.  What can you do when the fish aren’t cooperating?

• Change your bait/lure
• Drop down to lighter line
• Move around to more fishy locations; conditions may have moved the fish out of the spot you normally catch them
• If possible, put on a mask and snorkel and see what’s going on underwater
• Salvage the day by catching the less glamorous fish like triggerfish, palani, po’opaa (rockfish), hinalea, mamo, kupipi, etc
