Make an adventure out of your next trip in Kailua-Kona and go fishing with Maggie Joe Sportfishing. Having logged many hours on these tides.

Your adventure begins aboard a 35' Bertram with capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.
Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Your trip with Maggie Joe Sportfishing is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

3/4 Day Trip on March 24, 2026 • 5 adultsIts tough when the fish aren’t biting it can make for a really long day. Yet had the most enjoyable time seeing the Kona Coast even managed to make my boys maintain a positive attitude throughout slow fishing

My Daughter Caught a Blue Marlin
3/4 Day Trip on May 20, 2024 • 3 adultsWe had a very enjoyable trip. The captain and mate treated our party of three real well. They know the waters off Kona, and worked extremely hard to put us on some fish. My daughter, who has been deep sea fishing several times, caught her first blue marlin this trip. We will definitely take another trip out with these guys. I highly recommend them.
