March 2026
Jordan Alejandro III’s 30” Omilu
Aloha Taggers,
Happy March, with the weather events in February, fishing was relatively slow. We had 10 Fish tagged this month Some quality fish submitted from Big Island including multiple large Omilus, Uluas, and a 45” Kaku from Alika Bento & Chris Lewis.
We’re hoping weather improves but the fishing still seems great.
Check out the photos and recognition this month.

February Catches
Alika Bento’s 45” Kaku. Alika is the creator of Omilu House Lures (OHL). From Chris: This is Chris Lewis, my friend Alika Bento caught this big Kaku using his own lure called Omilu House Lures. He's the owner and maker of these lures. I used my tag to tag his fish. Credit is all his, he ran out of tags I believe. Mahalo's Chris!!
