KAI BEAR SPORTFISHING
Kai Bear markets itself as one of the
finest operations in all of Hawaii, and they believe the presentation of their product is
the key to their business. Co-Captain's Ben Ellsworth, Jordan Barefoot and
Lance Keener are both experienced Kauai fishermen who are both professional and safety
conscious.
In addition to deep sea trolling
and baiting methods, these well equipped boats will do bottom fishing upon
request (private charters only), fly fishing, weddings, funerals, whale
watching, and romantic sunset cruises which even include your first bottle of
champagne. They will also do serious overnight fishing trips to places
such as Niihau, Nihoa, Kaula Rock, the Middle Bank, and Lehua Rock.
Both Kai Bear and the Grander
have new (2004) Cummins 315HP twin diesel engines which provide a quiet, smoke
free ride. Both Kai Bear boats are currently equipped with custom built
rods by Blue Water and Penn Gold Reels ranging in size from 30 class to 130
class. They also carry light tackle spinning rods on board for special
occasions.
As for the disposition of the
fish, the captain and crew will cut table fish for all guests aboard the boat
upon availability.

to run the trip. However, your group (or single) can be less

others wanting to go to make the minimum number of passengers. The maximum
means you will not be on the boat with more than the maximum number of
anglers specified. |
