Member since February 2024 Kailua-Kona, United States
Background
Our captains are passionate about sharing their love for light tackle bottom fishing. Our style of fishing is the best and only way to catch some of the best eating fish in Hawaii. Captain Kevin has been bottom fishing for 10 years and enjoys helping teach young kids how to fish. On Kevin’s days off, you’ll find him fishing for his family and neighbors. He loves to cook and loves to share his recipes with everyone who come aboard. Captain Kihe was born in raised here Kona and has been fishing in the area since he was a young kid. He has gathered knowledge from 10 generations and loves to share his passion of Hawaiian culture like the language, stories of the old, and of course the beauty of the islands and surroundings of the Moana (ocean).
Techniques
Light tackle bottom fishing is a family friendly interactive form of fishing which targets some of the most sought after best eating fish in Hawaii. We spend as much of our time drifting and fishing instead of driving.
