Fresh/brackish water fishing is limited on this island some baitfish net catching in Puna/Hilo - most "fishing" is mainly older on the mountain rivers & ponds of the island/state, not a real issue in Puna, unless it is in someones' private stock pond ;~0
Open water has sooo many different options, from net, to spear to line...& onshore, near-shore & off-shore....
ADDED: there is a LOT of commercial fishing off of Hilo (that is the WHY of Suisan market in Hilo!) and there are some day to multi day fishers that will take hard core paying fishers...
East side windward boats are not the luxury charters of Kona, but highly productive.
