oh forgot to mention. Usually flyfisherman in Hawaii use heavy weight rod setups due to the tradewinds. If the winds pick up it makes casting a feat in its own. I got away with using a 7wt on the flats with mild winds, but when the winds pick up its useless. You can get away with shore fishing as us...

When I fly back home to Oahu I never have any issues with taking my gear there. I pack my line basket/tub in my suitcase and pack my clothes in it.
