Nathan and Michael Abe | Hawai‘i Bottomfish Heritage Project |
Nathan and Mike Abe are brothers who have dedicated their lives to fishing, following in the footsteps of their father and grandfather. Nathan learned the trade from his commercial fisherman father and continued the family tradition of netting opelu, a type of fish. He primarily focused on bottom fishing and inshore fishing. Mike, on the other hand, started fishing at a young age, netting opelu and later transitioning to boat fishing. He engaged in opelu and bottom fishing, often giving bait to others and selling the majority of the catch. |
