Title: Kauai fishing
Post by: jagermiester on December 15, 2017, 08:52:03 PM: My wife and I are going to Kauai March 1st to the 10th.
We are planning on going fishing. We are leaning towards captain Scott with Lahela Sport Fishing. Does anyone have any experience with fishing out of Kauai?

Probably wrong on that assumption, but that’s some fishing I wish I had done while I was there. Have fun and take lots of pictures!

Same here. Back when we went you didn't need a license either. Just start fishing. There is so much to see it is tough to find time to fish.

You know what I like about him is you can keep some of the catch. We are staying in a Condo so we can have some fresh fish on our trip as well.
When I talked to him he said that it would be possible to catch Tuna and Dorado that time of year. :drool:
