What to expect
Departing from Nāwiliwili harbor we will start fishing immediately. Just 10 minutes out of the harbor we can start fishing our first drop off of the island. Your captain and crew will fill you in on the methods of fishing being used, brief you on the tackle and how to safely use them, and explain some of the environmental signs that we look for that can lead us to good fishing. Whether it be looking for seabirds feeding, finding debris floating on the water, or just plain getting lucky, we invite all our guests to participate in the “hunting” as well as the “fishing”.
When fishing with Imua Fishing Charters Kaua'i, we will use different methods of fishing based on the seasons, weather patterns, and tidal movements. Our captain and crew definitely want to catch fish just as much, or maybe a little more than you do. Some of the methods of fishing we use are trolling, live bait, chunk bait, bottom fishing and deep jigging. We will always pick the method of fishing that is most productive for your trip.

Wahooooo!!!! I mean Mahi, Mahi, Mahi and HUGE tuna, and another and another…. We live and fish the coast in NC so we aren’t amateurs, but this was FUN! These guys are Fantastic- they know their stuff and the waters! They also have great attitudes and are very encouraging and all around nice people! They have the gear and are great spotters ( and have killer binocs that they put to good use). We will use these guys again next time and I would absolutely recommend them!Amazing crew the captain and his first mate were amazing people told us everything we asked for, great humble nice group of guys to go fishing with next time I come back I’m doing a 8hr trip

Overall service was incredible!! The captain and Chaz did an excellent job managing the boat and lures and poles and everything that needed to be done. I have no complaints about their customer service because it was great! They were super meticulous about the cleaning of their boat...
5/5- service! Overall service was incredible!! The captain and Chaz did an excellent job managing the boat and lures and poles and everything that needed to be done. I have no complaints about their customer service because it was great! They were super meticulous about the cleaning of their boat too- wiping down seats that got wet from the waves and spraying down the blood from fish. The biggest thing that wasn’t unexpected was the sea conditions- they said it was right on the edge of cancelling because waves were going to be about 5 feet- we had never been in those Type of conditions and wow what a crazy experience- the waves got up to about 7 feet apparently too and it was thrilling and somewhat scary for me all at the same time. Not to mention, if you get sea sick, prepare to throw up. Even if you don’t get sea sick, you might get sick anyways. My husband was vomiting pretty much the entire time off and on and was nauseous the entire time so it’s just a miracle he reeled in even one fish and took a photo. He was super miserable. Please please please bring medicine for anti-nausea!! Just in case!! We wish we had been warned and told to bring some cuz it could have been a game changer and we were pretty much stuck on a boat for 4 hours. They should have some sort of over the counter stuff on the boat but they don’t do bring your own! It seems like people getting sea sick on these trips is super common- unless perhaps you’re used to these type of conditions but Kauai apparently has some of the roughest of all of the islands due to its location. We didn’t get to catch any of the big guys but we did catch 6 of the Jack tuna and got to take some back with us so looking forward to eating that today. They did anything and everything they could to catch us fish- it’s also trolling fishing so you’re always moving so be prepared for that too. They worked their butt’s off on that boat- I was thankful for their experience and just overall positive demeanor, even emptying my husband barf bucket on a regular basis. We had to have the co-captain reel in some of our fish because at points 2 would be on the line and my husband wasn’t physically able to reel them in due to being sick so it was me and Chaz reeling in the fish. This was our first time fishing in Kauai or anywhere in Hawaii and it was for sure a memorable experience! I would recommend for sure as long as you’re aware of the seas and bring medicine for that! The boat is super nice and customer service is on point!This was my first time fishing the ocean. Ikena and Chaz were awesome and make the trip great. Shortly leaving the harbor we saw whales and the weather was perfect. We only caught one slip Jack tuna but it was still a great time. Ikena gave us an additional fish from their catch the previous day....

We only caught one slip Jack tuna but it was still a great time. Ikena gave us an additional fish from their catch the previous day. We took both fish home and cooked them up. They were amazing.This was one of the best fishing experiences I’ve ever had. The crew found the fish quickly in challenging conditions and we put plenty of fish in the boat. The boat is in great shape, comfortable with a great captain and mate.

To include all of the heavy lifting and patience involved when we all got a little nausea…LOL! We were catching tuna 30 min into the trip! The highlight for me was seeing my boys Reel in that Marlin!...

Can’t wait to come back and do it again!
