Kona Cowboy Sportfishing

Member since August 2023 Kailua-Kona, United States
Background
Captain Gaige Inscore started his love for offshore fishing in the Gulf of Mexico at the age of 12, with his father. There he learned that this was a sport he wanted to make a career of. He has fished many tournaments out of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and now Kona, Hawaii. Capt. Gaige ran a 54' Hatteras out of Texas, where he placed in different categories of many tournaments, including 2nd place Billfish Release in the prestigious POCO Bueno tournament in 2018. Capt. Gaige moved to Kona, Hawaii in 2022 to run the Kona Cowboy, which at the time was a 35' Bertram. In 2023 Kona Cowboy was upgraded to a classic 42' Merritt. Since moving to Kona, Gaige has been running a successful charter business, putting many people on their first Marlin. In 2023, Capt. Gaige placed 3rd overall in the Lure Maker's challenge and won the Big Island Marlin Tournament. Big Game Sport fishing is Gaige's passion and Kona, Hawaii is a place that allows him to pursue this passion year-round. Capt. Gaige has the U.S.C.G. OUPV/Six-pack License and also his 100 Ton Master's License.
