    Trophy GT!!

    Booked a trip with Captain Kihe and he was amazing. Super cool and laid back. Everyone on the boat caught fish and was able to bring some back to cook for dinner. The trip ended with me catching a trophy GT (Trevally) overall we were super excited and very pleased with the trip. We will definitely book again in the future!

    Got exactly what I asked for.

    Captain called the night before and asked if we could be early to the dock so we could go and catch live bait. We did and caught two bigger trevallys because of it. We also caught some good eating fish to bring a home.

    Great Experience

    We caught so many fish today. The Captain & Mate were so helpful and kept us on fish the entire time. Everyone on the boat had more than enough for a meal or two and maybe even 3. We highly recommend and will absolutely be back. Thank you so much to Captain Mike and his Mate!!

    Great time catching tuna!

    Captain was very very experienced and ensured that everyone had a chance to reel in a tuna. Deckhand was also very helpful and humorous.

Bigeye Trevally is a fast, hard-fighting member of the Carangidae family. Anglers target it for powerful runs, rapid turns, and nonstop action when schools feed. It is a respected sport fish and makes good table fare in many regions.

You can catch Bigeye Trevally while reef fishing or inshore near current edges. Spinning and popping work well when fish chase bait near the surface. Popping means casting noisy surface lures that splash to draw strikes. Fly fishing with baitfish patterns also produces. Live or cut bait like sardines, mullet, or squid is reliable. Metal jigs, plugs, and soft plastics cover different depths. Use medium gear and a 20–40 lb leader to handle sharp plates and reefs.

Expect quick bites at dawn and dusk, and sudden flurries when bait schools bunch up. Captains often look for birds, rips, or tide lines to find fish. The fight is strong but manageable, which suits first-timers and seasoned anglers alike. Bring sun protection, polarized sunglasses to spot fish, and non-slip shoes. Pack a light jacket, water, and a camera. Many crews support catch and release; if you keep fish, chill it on ice quickly.

Before you go, check local rules. Confirm fishing license or permit needs, plus season, size, and daily harvest limits. Regulations vary by area and can change. Follow marine protected area rules and respect reef habitats.
