Toau Record
NAME: Andrea Kawabata
FISH: Toau
WEIGHT: 3.06
LOCATION: Puna, Hi
DATE: 1.19.09
WEAPON: Beuchat 90
FROM: Shore
SYNOPSIS: Troy, Jeff and I jumped in the day after Puna was flat as a tack. I usually try to shoot roi or toau to offset a good fish like a goat, so I went after a toau that ducked under a small arch. After the second drop, I shot it and strung it up on my tag line since I forgot a stringer. I knew the fish was big, but didn’t realize how big it actually was until the guys said something on land. The fish curled really badly when my dad cooked it, but at least I saved a bunch of little fishies lives from being eaten by an introduced fish.
