    Great experience!

    8 Timers Eksklusiv Tur • 6 voksne

    Jay and Captain Hopper were great. Jay was a great teacher, answered all our questions, and interacted well with all my boys. They both were very safety conscious which, as a mom, I really appreciate. We were able to get our tunas on the boat before the sharks got then and have enjoyed eating the best yellow fin tuna the last couple days! Thank you Jay and Captain Hopper! I highly recommend this crew!

    Best 4 hours on saltwater in Oahu

    4 Timers Eksklusiv Tur • 3 voksne

    My son, who had never fished saltwater, my brother, and I had a great time with Hopper and Jay. We doubled up on two mahi to start the morning, and then hit a school and hooked up four at once. From then on it was steady hooks and lands. From reading the reviews, it is clear that Captain Hopper knows what he’s doing. He does indeed. The lady that left the review from 09-Dec-2025 is hilarious. Sounds like her crew had an epic trip. I hope their fish feast was as great as the catching experience. We couldn’t recommend Grand Slam more adamantly.

    This is the crew for catching fish!

    8 Timers Eksklusiv Tur • 6 voksne

    We had an amazing fish catch on our tour with Grand Slam. The captain and crew knew what they were doing, for sure, and we pulled in a huge catch including a 120 lb. marlin, probably 20 mahi mahi and 3 tuna. That part of the trip was awesome and the reason for the 5 stars. On the flip side, the water was incredibly rough. Almost everyone in our group got sick, one of us being extremely sick. When we asked the captain and crew to go back to, they were less than responsive to the idea. We actually came back an hour later than the 8 hour tour we booked. One of our group was very dehydrated and in bad shape from the seasickness throughout the day. Also, the captain said he had a "fish policy" that our group only gets 50 lbs. of fish and he gets all the rest. We were 6 people in our group and paid almost $3k for the trip and caught A LOT of fish. His "fish policy" was a bit ridiculous and never spelled out anywhere in detail (on his site it said we share our catch with the crew, no specifics). He did concede and gave us an additional 20 lbs or so after being confronted about it. He was obviously very concerned about selling the fish we caught to make more profit. That left a bad taste in my mouth.

    The captain and Jay were excellent. They were patient with our kids and we all caught amazing fish. One of the highlights of our Hawaii trip. We will definitely be back.

    The boat and crew were top notch! After seeing several other boats in the harbor, this was by far the best kept and well maintained boat. The crew was very informative and worked hard to ensure we had a great time and caught as many fish as possible. I would absolutely recommend this fishing trip to anyone looking in the North Short of Oahu area. We will be going out again on our next trip!!!

    Top notch captain and crew. I highly recommend booking this boat. It’s larger and more comfortable than other boats in that harbor. We booked a half day. The first couple of hours was a little slow and the captain kept us out a little longer. He didn’t want us going home empty handed and it paid off. We ended up catching 2 large Mahi and a wahoo. We couldn’t have been more pleased. Look no further definitely book this boat.

    Can’t say enough good things about these guys. Both super friendly, knowledgeable, and got us on fish quick! I’ve done trips on other boats on Hawaii and caught nothing, we got a bunch on this boat. Great day all around!!

    Hopper and Jay were amazing! From start to finish they are on their A game! Cooler loaded with ice, a quick stop a little ways out for fresh bait, and then out to catch the monsters. They don't stop til they find the honeyhole of the day. Taking some serious freshwater fisherman out and making it the fishing trip of a lifetime is a tall order and they overfilled it! It was the best experience and they set the bar high and have us looking at dates to come back and we would pick them over and over, no need to look elsewhere! They made our trip and memories that will last a lifetime. LEGENDARY DAY!

Hva er det som biter med Grand Slam Hawaii - Top Choice !! i Haleiwa

Det flotte med november på Oahu er at temperaturen ikke faller under 21°C. Dette er en fin mulighet til å dra på havfiske etter Tunfisk (Storøye). Alternativt kan du utforske farvann nærmere kysten og lande noen fine Nannygai.
