Captain Chris and his deck hand Derek were a blast to fish with! With decades of local knowledge they put us on a tuna beat down just like the sport fishing shows you see on t.v. We caught a number of fish trolling. We doubled twice and even tripled on another pass! Once that bite slowed we switched up to top water popping and slammed a bunch more. You could see the tuna and mahi come out of the water to hit the lure! Incredible stuff! The captain said we should try some deep jigging to try and pick up some bigger fish and that we did! Ended up catching the biggest fish of the day with this method! Ended the day with 25 fish and 4 different species caught with 3 different techniques. Ahi tuna, mahi mahi, big eye tuna, and skip jack tuna were the species we caught. It was a day I’ve always dreamed about having offshore! Thank you to Captain Chris and Derek for an unbelievable day of fishing! I highly recommend this charter to anyone that wants to catch fish and share some laughs along the way too!

We had the best time on this boat we have been three times we have caught fish every time but this boat had the best cream The captain you could tell really knew what he was doing he has lived there all his life. The owner even showed up to see us off at 5:30 in the morning they gave us a long and great trip we caught a tuna and a marlin and the deckhand was the most amazing help ever. I may small girl and he was helping pull the fish in with his hands on the line the entire time lol. The next day the captain even made a bowl of warm sushi and some rice for my husband so it was just great we caught a 150 lb tuna and like 130 lb marlin!! I definitely recommend these folks if you’re traveling to Waikiki we even travel to the North shore to try out their boat and it was well worth it!!

Captain Chris & Derek were great! 👍🏼 I accompanied my 17-year-old son, who loves fishing and has been discussing deep-sea fishing in Hawai’i since last Easters. My 13-year-old daughter joined us because she didn’t want to stay home with her “annoying” other brother and my 17 y/o nephew, who kept telling his mom, “I got ‘em!”

Four passengers set sail that day for a 6-hour tour…a 6-hour tour. 😅

The nephew threw up the whole time and finally remembered his sunblock in the last hour. 🤦🏽♀️ Daughter won “strong will” award for refusing to puke, even though she wanted to, and got bragging rights: “At least I didn’t throw up.” 💁🏽♀️ She even took a selfie of her and her cousin in his usual position (hunched over the side of the boat 🤮). My “fisherman” threw up one time in the beginning and blamed it on “nerves” and the itty bitty breakfast he ate. 👀 I ultimately won the “Didn’t Throw Up At All” accolade and accredit that to my grandfather and great-grandfather, who were whalers in Tonga. 🇹🇴💁🏽♀️😆

Captain Chris was knowledgeable, easygoing, and easy to talk to! He taught us a quick lesson about bananas and why they’re prohibited on the boat. 😳 Sorry! 😅 Derek was fast, friendly, and patient with our ragtag crew! I would have been happy with our first catch of aku, but we managed to catch a second aku and blue marlin. Winner winner fish dinner!

At the end of the tour, we got a generous amount of fish to take home—Furikake panko marlin. Marlin poke. Sashimi aku. 🤤🤤🤤

Next year, we look forward to another 6-hour tour, minus the nephew and daughter. 😉 Mahalo Captain Chris & Derek for a memorable first deep sea fishing experience! A hui hou! 🤙🏽
