HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! This boat not only has the comforts of a great riding boat for the conditions, but also AC, a head/toilet, a couch for naps, room on deck, and a fridge. On top of that, the equipment is very high quality such as rods are custom, Shimano Tiagra reels, and lures are very high end some custom/some Black Bart/huge variety. Lastly the captain and first mate were so great with the perfect amount of professionalism and also lots of small talk and joking around. I can’t say enough about the experience! We caught 6 Skipjack Tuna/Aku, lost a 7th, and lost more than likely a wahoo/Ono. That’s fishing, but we got to bring fish back for the family and friends.

Sure! Here’s a message you could use:

We had an incredible charter fishing trip in Kauai! 🌊🎣 The day was filled with excitement as we reeled in some amazing catches. We landed two mahi mahi, a yellowfin tuna and an ono, and the highlight of the trip—a 150lb marlin! 🐟🐟🐟 The thrill of the chase and the beauty of the ocean made it an unforgettable experience. Can’t wait for our next adventure on the water with Captain Tim and Herbert!

Herbert and Tim were very polite to work with today.  The accommodations could not have been better.  We all took Dramamine as a preventative measure and when it kicked in we were very thankful for a comfortable lounge area that was inside and had plenty of room to stretch out for a cat nap.  As for the fishing, it is called fishing.  Some days you are the bug and some days you are the windshield.  I’m not saying we didn’t catch any fish but it would have been really nice to get into something bigger.  We ended up catching 3 Skipjacks and were able to bring more than enough home for a meal while we are still on the Island.  It defininitely wasn’t due to a lack of trying to catch the fish, it just goes that way some times.  I have fished a lot on small lakes at home in Nebraska and am not always able to catch the species I’m shooting for.  If you want a comfortable boat, crew that tries hard, great share in the catch, reasonable price, a boat where you aren’t just one of 20 or more lined up along the rail, give Apex Kauai Luxury Sport Fishing Charters a look up and book with them, you won’t be disappointed.

When in Lihue, Kauai, I highly recommend fishing with Apex Fishing Charter. My family went on an
8 hr fishing trip with Tim and Herbert today and they were both awesome. We enjoyed getting to know them. They were able to get our 19 yr old son on two types of fish he was wanting to catch, Yellow Fin Tuna and Mahi Mahi. It was a great day of fishing.

We booked a 6 hr private with Captain Tim and deckhand Herbert. With 6’ swell the boat handled better than any other and we have fished on several boats while on Kauai, this was undoubtably the best handling.  Within 30 minutes of leaving the harbor deckhand Herbert started setting lines. He had 6 lines out within about 10 minutes. After another 10 minutes a Marlin started smacking the lures. Herbert was never offset by the swell and used his mojo to entice the Marlin to strike, and strike he did. After 7 trips with other captains finally our first hook up with a Marlin within the first hour of our trip. My son enjoyed a 20 minute back and forth and finally we brought the Marlin to the boat!!  We spent the rest of the day cruising and chasing other fish until we had a triple header and brought 3 tuna in!!  What a morning, my sons and I will remember this trip forever. So if you plan to go, these guys and this boat is your best chance to have success. They were also very safe and professional. We had a great trip and would strongly encourage anyone to experience the water of Kauai.  And unlike other trips, most likely due to the size and shape of the boat, none of us experienced sea sickness!!
