Beast Mode Sportfishing is located in Kailua-Kona and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Come on aboard with Capt. Mike, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. Expect to use heavy tackle and troll for big game. Speaking of which, you have the option of 6 to 10-hour trips, where you’ll be fishing for BlueMarlin.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 42’ Black Watch boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. This boat features a toilet, AC, ice box, satellite TV, and a fighting chair. All the latest Furuno electronics, including the Omni Directional Sonar to locate fish up to a 1/4 mile from the boat.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price.

Capt. Mike runs trips together with his first mate, who’s there to help you with whatever you may need. Tips are always appreciated for a job well done.

There will be complimentary drinks aboard for your convenience during the trip, but feel free to bring your own drinks or snacks if you prefer.

Children (14+) are welcome aboard so you’re good to get the young ones started early.

Capt. Mike runs trips out of Kailua-Kona aboard a 42’ Black Watch. These waters are known for Billfish and he will show you how to catch them on heavy tackle. With 12 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
