Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass and Peacock Bass Fishing in Hawaii.

Bass are one of the most sought after of all the game fish. Its appeal spans cultures, age groups and genders to tap on the heart strings of anglers everywhere. Join us in our endeavor to offer information about bass fishing on your favorite bass lake in the Hawaii area.

The islands of Hawaii are dotted with small lakes, ponds and reservoirs which hold bass, peacock bass and sunfish. See the Hawaii fishing home page for a list of some of these impoundments.

Perhaps the best of them is Wilson Lake, aka Wahiawa Reservoir which holds some very nice peacock bass. You can fish for peacock bass much the same as largemouths, however a little extra patience may be required. Work the baits a little slower. Use more finesse in presentation and cast to the same spot again and again if you think it holds a peacock.

Bass are aggressive feeders and agile enough to chase down and catch most of their favorite foods. They are most easily caught during a feeding spree but can be enticed into striking an anglers bait for reasons other than hunger. They are predatory by nature and at times will strike at anything that enters their world. They are also territorial and at times strike anything that ventures into their domain. If it moves and they can get it into their large mouth, bass will attempt to eat it.
