TL;DR - Good guys who know the local waters and the capabilities of their boat. Dress and be prepared for the conditions on the north shore. Would repeat and recommend.

I booked a 5 hour morning charter with my wife and 13 year old son. The conditions were way rougher than we expected and what the forecast suggested (big swells, strong winds, etc.) but I trusted that captains Adam and Kevin knew what they were doing, and of course they did. We were going to earn our fish the hard way!

My poor wife suffered sea sickness most of the way but she soldiered on. My son was freaked out by the crashing swells and repeated nose dives in the dark before sunrise, but conditions did soften after sunrise once we laid our lines.

We caught two mahi-mahi and my son reeled them both in. I’m more proud of the fact that he went from being scared out of his mind in the beginning to understanding what courage is - you control your fear and don’t let it control you. By the time we started to head back, he was yelling yippee everytime we caught air, haha. Those two fish caught in those conditions were worth 20 caught on a breezy summer day.

Big props to Kevin for safely navigating the waters in those conditions and for easing up each time my wife had to hurl. And much respect to Adam for being as cool as a cucumber and acting like it was just another day at the office. That went a long way to reassuring my son we were all going to be fine. A fishing trip to remember and we’ll chase that bucket list marlin next time. Mahalo!

Capt. Kevin and Capt. Adam were great!  Views of North Shore from the water are epic and a must see!  Super chill experience which is what I’m looking for in a charter. Just chill, enjoy the water and catch some fish. Nothing is better.

Crew was friendly, straight and direct with the directions. Had a great time saw whales and dolphins and most importantly caught 2 great sized Mahi-Mahis! Great experience for my 1st deep sea fishing tour! Highly recommend

Captain Kevin and captain Adam were fantastic!  Had our first bite at 8:30 am.  We hit 3 times and missed them but then at 9:30 we caught our first stripe marlin.  Around 11:00 am we had an amazing five marlin in the spread and we hooked a stripe marlin over a 100 pounds.  We then went to the buoy and caught a mahi mahi!  All while listening to reggae music.  I highly recommend booking with Max Charters.  I can not thank them enough for a fantastic day of fishing!!

The captain and crew were awesome.  Rey willing to help my two younger kids reel in their fish. I am definitely going to book with them again
