Re: Island Fever....really?

So stoked been here for a week now and I'm loving it ! Except for the crazy local kid that crashed into my rental car lol but I'm fine and he had insurance. I haven't felt an ounce of island fever unless you wanna say I have da love fever for this place. I went out this afternoon too look for some uhu with my new 8' 3prong Hawaiian spear. No luck though all I saw were tiny reef fish was hoping to catch an Uhu.

Don't give up! I was there visiting last week and we got into a pile of Uhu. You'll get them.


Get on the Hawaii Skin Diver forums and look for dive buddies. If you put in the effort, someone will take you up and take care of you! Best of luck!

Aloha,
Matt

Ive never heard of this island fever. Assuming youve got good people around you i see no reason to get sick of amazing diving.

I've got a different type of island fever, I miss Guam so much it makes me sick! You'll be fine, if I could find work there I'd be gone

Island Fever is plenty real, but not often on a 44 mile by 30 mile island with a million people. Spend a few years on a 2-5 square mile island with a thousand people you didn't grow up with and you'll come to understand what people mean by 'island fever'.
