Fishing Haleiwa

Honolulu and Haleiwa: harbors, breakwalls and the North Shore.

What's biting now (Fall): Papio and ulua feed along shorelines and harbor walls; oio (bonefish) on sandy flats.

Commonly caught in this area: Papio and ulua (trevally), oio (bonefish), moi and goatfish.

Also caught here: goatfish (weke), akule, aholehole, taape, great barracuda (kaku), mahimahi and ono offshore.

Read the beach before you cast: look for darker troughs, rip currents and cuts in the sandbar where fish feed. Sand fleas and shrimp are reliable surf baits, and the first and last hours of daylight are usually best.

How the bite outlook works

The rating is our estimate, not a guarantee. It combines tide range, wind, rain and storms, temperature swings, the moon phase and how well the solunar periods line up with dawn and dusk. Fish do not read forecasts - local knowledge always wins. Read more
