'Konadice Sportfishing' invites you on the ultimate deep sea fishing adventure in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii! This tropical paradise is located on the Big Island and happens to be the former capital of the island. It was good enough for royalty and it's certainly great if you're hoping to explore the incredible rich blue surrounding it!

Kailua-Kona has, as you would expect in a tropical paradise, a tropical climate. The warm temperatures allow local charter operators to be on the water daily and catch fish year-round.

Hop aboard the 35ft Bertram wide body open cabin' offshore sportfishing boat, which can comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests. She's powered by twin 330 HP Cummings engines and boasts the latest GPS and Fishfinder technology. What's more, she has a flybridge & tuna tower. On calm days you can use to sight surface activity.a spacious 2 door toilet convenience. She also features outriggers, Tuna tubes, a live well, and a fighting chair. With 15.5 ft beem she accomidates plenty of room and places of shade. Highly recomend taking a look at the vessel you choose closed cabins if air conditioned its nice but doesnt feel like your fishing and deck space all importsnt to getting the most out of your money.

You'll explore the offshore waters off the coast of Kona for some of the world's most desirable fish around. Hook into the likes of Mahi Mahi, Ahi (Yellowfin Tuna), Blue and Striped Marlin, Ono (Wahoo), Shortbill Spearfish, Amberjack, and Giant Trevally.

The crew has two goals: making sure you catch the fish of a lifetime and ensuring you have a great time doing so! They offer kid-friendly charters and are able to accommodate beginner and experienced anglers alike. Keep in mind our crew and captain make a living catching fish, 60% of our income is from daily charters, 20% gratuity, and 20% from selling the fish we catch.

Set aside a day and come with us on a day to remember. Aloha!

Going the Extra mile!
6 Hour Trip on May 26, 20262 adults
Captain and Crew was exeptional,we knew it was tough out on the water with very few bites,Capt Jim and his crew tried everything to get us on fish even going as far as taking us out longer than we were supposed to,Capt Jim wanted to go check out a spot were they catch alot of Mahi Mahi,we got there dropped down livebait and nothing,time is running out bit that didnt stop them we trolled back on the way and he came down and told me there is good marlin arounds and next moment its on reel running marlin jumping,Cpt Jim did a great job to hunt it down and keep me in the fight. Its NOT just a JOB or another day out for Capt Jim Its his PASSION!Recomend this trip for anyone willing to roll the Dice with Konadice!

Bestest Fishing Charter EVAAAAA
6 Hour Trip on May 5, 20264 adults
Right from the start Greeted and welcomed us and introduced them selves, captain Jim and crew mate Kevin was very genuine, kind, and had so much aloha spirit, made this experience that much more comfortable. All the boyz caught fish and soaked in knowledge and stories from Captain Jim and Kevin, we enjoyed and had a blast learning and doing the hands on different fishing techniques and pole to use, from catching the live bait all the way to catching the big boy fishes, they gave the boys the bestest fishing boat experience of a life time!. 100/10 recommend! Mahaloz Captain Jim and Kevin for that amazing Boat fishing experience, we definitely will see you guys again in the near future.

Epic Experience with Jimbo and the Hardest Working First Mate on the Island
5 hour live bait on February 10, 20264 adults
What an absolutely incredible day! This was a first-time fishing charter for my dad and my two sons, and it could not have been more perfect. Captain Jimbo and his first mate were phenomenal—not only were they incredibly knowledgeable and encouraging with the boys, but they clearly knew exactly where to go to find the fish. Seeing the excitement on my family's faces as they hooked into some real action was priceless. The crew’s energy was infectious, and they worked tirelessly to ensure we had a successful trip. We would absolutely recommend this charter to anyone looking for a top-tier experience in Kona. Pro-tip for future guests: Make sure you have a plan and check in with the captain regarding the plan for cleaning and keeping fish, as well as discussing any catch-and-release preferences you might have. We have never had much luck fishing and didn’t think that far ahead. We can't wait to get back out there with them. Thanks for the memories!

Put that fish in the cooler!
4 Hour Trip - 10:30 AM on March 19, 20261 adult1 child
Looking for a great time, link up with the Captain and Crew (incuding King) on the KonaDice! Took my two boys (9 & 11) out for some fun and this crew did not disappoint. They communicated well and were prepared when we hit the dock. They took the time to engage and joke with the kids, taught them new lines and rigging, and made sure they were manning the reels to land some great fish. The captain got on the grounds, made the tackle and location changes based on shifting weather and we stayed on some great fising. 4 Ahi, MahiMahi and Skipjack - 6 great fish and tons of excitement. 100% recommend for seasoned anglers and famikies! Great job Cap!
