Full day trip with Captain Kenny on the Vixen
8 Hour Trip – Full Day (AM) on June 7, 2024
We fished 4 days on the Vixen in June, 2024. Captain Kenny knows how to catch fish. My husband Pete and I have been fishing with Captain Kenny for the last 17 years and we go at least once or twice a year with him. We just got back from fishing with him on the Vixen in June and we always have the best time and ALWAYS catch fish. His crew are fabulous with a lot of experience and Captain Kenny is well known throughout the harbor. If you want to have a good time and catch fish go with Captain Kenny on the Vixen.

Half Day fishing with Captain Kenny
4 Hour Trip – Half Day (AM) on May 9, 2024
Fishing with Captain Kenny on his boat Vixen was a funfilled, amazing day! He has lots of experience and is very knowledgeable! We caught a Ono. I got to reel it in and Captain Kenny and Greg helped me since this was my first time reeling in a big fish! It was an exciting and a memorable experience! Thank you both! We would HIGHLY recommend Captain Kenny and his boat Vixen!! We will be going fishing with him again in November 2024 on our next trip to Kona, Hawaii.

2.5 hours with the amazing Capt Kenny, Greg, and Jayna
4 Hour Trip – Half Day (AM) on May 23, 2024
There was hardly any time to enjoy the beautiful day on the calm ocean. We spent most of our time reeling in very big fish. We caught five fish: Spearfish, Ono, Mahi Mahi, and a Marlin. Capt Kenny knows where the big fish are, with his many successful decades of Kona fishing. Capt Kenny told us an easy way how to bring our catch back home to the mainland, without a problem.

What's biting with Vixen Kona in Kailua-Kona

The summer madness starts to wind down in September, and tournaments season draws to a close. This can still be a great time for Blue Marlin, though, and you won't be fighting for space to target them.
