    Great shoreline experience!

    1.5Hour– Shore Big Island (10:30am) • 2 adults • 1 child

    This type of fishing is an excellent opportunity to relax. Really good chance to bring the fishing experience to those who are not that fond of the boating part of fishing. Great scenery, turtles, fish, swimming to cool off. Friendly guide and just a relaxing time.

    Any day of fishing is better than....

    1.5 Hour Trip (7:30AM) • 2 adults

    I booked a short 1.5 hr session on purpose. I wanted a quaint, small group. I wanted to meet a local expert with some fun stories. I got all of that with Kieran on the day we went. Weather was perfection and conditions were great. While I didn't hook up, the bait got plenty of bites. In our time, we watched a sea lion swim by at about 20 feet from us on the water's edge. We spotted a couple of turtles cruising by. I could see the smaller fish feeding along the coral in the clear water. It was heaven. Hats off to Kieran for the knowledge, patience, stories, and co-angling company. Took my 18YO and we fished with a family for 4 adults. Plenty of room and attention for all if us. Highly recommended and would love to go out with this service again.

    Our family of 5 had a great time today! We learned the basics of fishing and my two sons who fished learned a lot and my youngest caught a fish within a few minutes of casting his line! Kenny was so fun and informative. I would highly recommend this excursion if you are a beginner or have more experience. Either way, you’ll have a great time.

    Had a nice time trying something new, fishing off a Cliff at South Point State Park. We are avid fisherman but it was cool to see some different species. Kenny was great, knowledgeable, provided equipment and bait. We had fun and was one of the top experiences on our Hawaiian trip for our 10 year old.

    The crew was awesome and knowledgeable. It was fun fishing for tropical fish. Blowfish are a fun fish to hook and reel in...

    Johnny was a great guide, very knowledgeable and incredibly nice. As a more experienced angular this was fantastic for me and for my novice fiance. Johnny baits all the hooks, has plenty of rigs in case of snags. Caught plenty of fish too!

What's biting with Shoreline Fishing – KONA in Kailua-Kona

There may not be the same number of Billfish around in November, but Bigeye Tuna arrive in force. These are some of the tastiest fish out there, so you will find you have lots of new friends if you bag one!
