Good Charter in Maui?
Friends of mine will be over in Feb. They have 2 boys who love to fish, and they want to catch fish over there. Who's recommended? I know they dont want to do a a shared trip. Whats around in Feb? Tehy can fish outa any port as they have a rental car.
I was staying on Lani and chartered them from Maui and they were the most professional charter out tere... We had a 42' bertam and the captain was Timster and he and the deck hand worked their ass off to catch us fish... The results. 1 Blue Marlin 286.3lb 9 Dodo's 25lb-40lb and we could
have caught more fish but we could not do anything with them so we left
them for others to fight another day... I hope this helps...

I would recommend "Finest Kind" sportfishing www.fishingmaui.com They have been in business a lot longer (since 1972) than others and will let you take home what you catch. Other charter companies charge as much as $1.50 a pound to cut the fish you paid to catch. Beware of this practice and always ask before you charter any boat in Hawaii.
