Hooked on Kauai is a personalized fishing guide service that provides private, island-wide, saltwater shoreline and freshwater sport fishing adventures to families, individuals, and small groups. All chartered tours integrate local, place-based species knowledge, utilize best practices (catch and release only), and whenever possible relevant history about the area. We strive to create a fun, adventurous, and educational experience for all of our guests. Our tours are family-friendly and can accommodate children as young as 5 years old.

Target saltwater species: Jack Fish, Bonefish, Pacific Threadfin, Porgy, Goatfish, Blue-lined Snapper, Blacktail Snapper, Rudderfish, Yellowtail, Wrasse, Trumpet Fish, Hawkfish, Queenfish, Flounder, Needlefish, and Bluespotted Grouper.

Target freshwater species: Largemouth Bass and Peacock Bass.

Guides will provide fishing poles, gear (tackle, bait, chairs & cooler), and light refreshments.  A good pair of polarized sunglasses, your bathing suit, and a sufficient amount of sun protection are always recommended. Some tours may require specific footwear (Tabis for walking on rocks). Most locations consist of a sandy shoreline but we do offer rock and cliff options for the more experienced and adventurous angler.

Basic charters can last up to 4 hours, extended and or custom bookings are available upon request. All excursions are customized to meet skill level, desired catch, and group size. Locations are chosen based on weather, water conditions, and proximity to your accommodations. Anglers must provide their own transportation to the location.

Make sure to book your trip at least 48 hours in advance so your guide can customize the trip according to your skill level, group size, and desired species.
