So glad we booked Dana. His love of gamefishing and Kona so evident along with his hospitality. Had fun on a blue Marlin plus the bonus of really calm seas.
Highly recommend.

Capital Burke and Deck Hand Logan delivered on my goal to catch & release a spectacular Kona Blue Marlin. The overall experience was most relaxed and comfortable and a well maintained boat with top tackle, rods and reels which shows their serious dedication. This allowed them to focus on finding fish and working well together when it came time to showing their skills by guiding me in the fighting chair. Thanks!

Outstanding Trip!
5/5
This is an outstanding trip for the family. Captain Brent and first mate Rooster are first class! They are incredibly personable and informative, and they will do everything they can to ensure that you have the best experience possible.
And not to mention, they put us on some awesome fish! Our boys caught Ono in the morning and we caught an incredible Blue Marlin in the afternoon.
One of the best charters we have ever been on.
We will be back!
