High Noon Sport Fishing
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii is known worldwide for its calm waters and big fish. Kona is world famous for it’s Blue Marlin fishing. There really is no better way to experience this bountiful fishery — as well as jaw-dropping scenery — than with High Noon Sport Fishing charters!
Captain Dee Bradford is at the helm, and he has being fishing the Kona waters for over 20 years professionally — he knows them like the back of his hand! He loves nothing more than getting to know his clients so that he can provide them with a completely customized experience. Whether you want to battle with Blue Marlin or target something tastier like Wahoo or Mahi Mahi , Captain Dee is there to provide you with a totally unique adventure.
You’ll be spending your time on a 33 foot Blackfin Sport Fisher, often considered to be one of the finest sport fishing boats ever designed. Not only can she comfortably accommodate 6 anglers, but she’s also decked out with a large shaded fly bridge that provides elevated and cushioned seating for all guests. It’s the perfect spot to view the Kona Coast scenery while trolling for gigantic Blue Marlin!
She’s also fully fitted with all the latest navigational and safety equipment, including autopilot, GPS, and Fishfinder. You’ll be arriving wherever the fish are biting in comfort, safety, and style. She also comes equipped with a fully enclosed head, so expect a toilet, mirror, sink and faucet, and fresh water.
Both new and experienced anglers alike are welcome aboard High Noon Sport Fishing charters — whether you’re a seasoned fisherman or complete novice, there’s something for everyone!
Your trip includes the finest rods and reels, as well as lures and live bait. Your fishing license will also be provided, so all that’s left is for you to book an adventure with High Noon Sport Fishing Charters !

Half Day Trip (PM)
So much fun!!
The captain and crew is top notch!! I knew it from the beginning and it stuck with me to the end of the trip, always trying to please and welcoming to our 4 children. But the real pleasing comes from the experience of the crew. They know these Kona waters like it is the back of their hand, knew the Kona waters currents, tide changes, what to do, how to gaff, how to teach to get that fish in the boat. The only thing I’m waiting for is my trophy spear fish mount in 90 days and my grilled Mahi Mahi tomorrow!!!!!

Great crew!
High Noon’s Capt Dee and First Mate Sawyer are a great team and made our half day trip worthwhile even though we didn’t get a fish in the boat. They are both very friendly and exceptionally knowledgeable about the work they do and clearly love. It was a beautiful day on the water and saw a few dolphins and turtles. Sawyer also made us a sashimi plate from fresh Ono caught the day before. We will be booking again with High Noon the next time we are in Kona!

Broke the Curse
Our trip was fantastic. We had been out three other times with other charters with limited enjoyment even if we caught fish. My wife and I went out on a private charter with High Noon and had a great time. Dallas and Sawyer were engaged and energetic the entire trip. They explained everything we were doing and how things would work. We hooked up three times and had two other bites boating one blue marlin. I am sure missing those other two were due to angler error. Size of the one we caught was estimated around 150 pounds. More fun than I could have imagined. Would recommend these guys to anyone interested in having fun even if you don't catch fish.

Best out of Three
This is the third charter I’ve booked here in Kona and the only one I would send a friend or relative too. Not only can Captain Dee put you on fish, he is also a great guy to share fishing stories with while up on the bridge. He is a well traveled fisherman with great memories to share. If you like to swap stories you will enjoy some time up top with Dee! As for down on the deck, Sawyer is a very knowledgeable and experienced fisherman with years of experience working the back deck! He started as a teenager and has bill fished all over the world. He is a wealth of knowledge and loves to share as much as you want to know. What a Great Guy!! As for me, I’ve fished on many boats over my 32 years of chasing fish in blue water and this was and will be one of my most enjoyable and memorable! I will be back next year and I will be fishing on the High Noon with Captain Dee and Sawyer!! PS. Yes! I did catch a Marlin!! Shawn

Fun day!
I was hoping for a few more fish, but I was pleased with getting to drop lines in the water the first few minutes. This was a half day afternoon trip so I wasnt holding my breath on a great day of catching. We seen so many tuna jumping, but they werent too hungry! However we did get to hook up on a purdy striped blue marlin! The crew did a great job of coaching me to get it in and helping every step of the way, even with a fellow boater crossing right over the line while pulling it in! They took care of the situation in a classy manner as well. We were lucky enough to get a whale spouting off just a little ways off as well. Who needs to pay for a whale tour LOL. As a bonus my 11 year old daughter got to bring in a nice tuna that we had for dinner. They were great with her as well. It wasnt exactly how I had hoped but they made it a good day none the less. Thanks guys!
