TROUTSIDERS: KAUAI – First Smallmouth Bass
Went to Kauai, HI early December. Got a hold of Darrell (22rfaka) to show me the spots on smallmouth bass fishing. I got a warm reception from his family. The whole day was a real treat. I was having so much fun & catching so much smallies that I kept on forgeting to take videos. Enjoy! Please be kind – rate, comment & subscribe!!!


Great to see those smallies on islands! Thanks for another good vid.
Those smallies can be something serious.
Sweeeet! Nice locale, good friends, and great fishing. What more could you ask for?
Although next time, let us all know, so we can tag along with ya!
I’m going to hold you to that brother! I will never turn down offers like that! I also want to try fly fishing for stripers. Thanks HS!
Yo ma man… that was a great vid!!! i’ve never caught a smallmouth myself yet but hear they fight like crazy. if you ever get out to the east coast of the US, i’ll have to take you to some primo trout fishing streams where you can put that fly rod to good use!!!!
What a unique place to catch your first smallie on a fly. Used to catch lots of smallies in the Willamette behind Heron Island near the mouth of the Clackamas. The John Day, as you probably know, has a strong smallmouth fishery too. Missing Oregon…
Mahalo! Troutsiders.
Great work indeed. It’s amazing that small mouth lives in Hawaii. Keep on fishing! Aloha!
That rocks! Another day in paradise indeed.

that is a great private area to go fish at. =D
Thanks again my friend for showing us “THE” spot! I’ll definitely get a hold of you next time we go to the islands. Whenever you and your fam are in the NW, call me up. We’ll make sure you’ll get your trout. Maybe even steelhead or salmon. Mahalo brother!
