Kaua‘i Fishing

Kaua’i Fishing? Did someone say FISHING? Ohhhh, yeah. There’s nothing like that heart-pounding rush of a solid fish strike, and boy, does Kaua‘i have some great fishing! From fresh water to ocean, from shoreline to fishing boats, this island has it all. Charter a Kaua’i fishing boat for an exhilarating day at sea catching ‘ono (wahoo), ahi (yellowfin tuna), or mahimahi (dolphinfish), or hook into several varieties of bass and other freshwater fish along the shores of Kaua‘i’s many rivers and reservoirs.

Saltwater Fishing Tours and Charters

Ocean fishing charters on Kaua‘i are quite numerous; however, we do have some top picks. Family-owned ‘Ohana Fishing Charters offers 4-, 6-, and 8-hour fishing trips, with Captain Lance Keener providing family-style hospitality and a fascinating perspective on fishing in Kaua’i. Captain J’s Deep Sea Fishing Kaua‘i can’t be beat for an authentic Hawaiian fishing experience. Born on Kaua‘i, Captain Jude Keoni Schwarze, aka Captain J, knows all the secrets, tricks, and science behind saltwater fishing on Kaua’i. He also offers a 10-hour fishing adventure to the island of Ni‘ihau. Island Fishing Kaua‘i’s Captain Jeff Brown is an accomplished angler who will take you to the hot spots; fileting and bagging up of your catch is also included in the charter price.

Freshwater Fishing Tours and Charters

For freshwater fishing in Kaua’i, Tom Christy is the guy in the know. An expert bass fishing guide on Kaua‘i since 1982, Tom has fished all 165 reservoirs and nine rivers on Kaua‘i. Tom offers half- and full-day fishing trips complete with gear and beverages; for full-day trips you need to bring your own lunch. Koloa Bass Fishing in Lihue will get you out onto the Waita Reservoir, the largest inland body of water in Hawai‘i, which is on private property and inaccessible to the public. Of course, “inaccessible to the public” also means killer fishing.
