What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Honolulu, Hawaii for the first time?

As a fisherman I know fish aren't always caught. There are no guarantees when fishing. We caught our fish 2.5 hours into the trip thinking we would be shut out. So, be patient, enjoy the water.

Listen and learn! Hawaii fishing is a different ballgame and following directions and letting the crew share their knowledge is paramount to a successful day.

Check weather and reviews, understand that it’s fishing, not catching and catching is not guaranteed and should be treasured.

Yes, some of our shipmates had little experience with big water fishing. They made sure to coach them as they got the fish in

Bring sunscreen, Take Dramamine be patient. Ask question to your captain/ be serious about catching fish. Be polite.

This is not for the experienced fisherman this is for rookie fishermen first time fisherman definitely not for the experience fisherman

Bring sunscreen, Swimsuit, water shoes and your luck! There are fish in the ocean. Good Luck. Well worth it! Will return to Fun Fishing.

Of course when windy it can be rough. No guarantees to catch fish so you just have to get out there and put in your time and it will pay off.

Be aware that the ocean can be rough. It’s not in their hands. so please don’t complain if you get sea sick.

A three hour trip isn’t enough time to get to where the fish are and actually catch some of them. It’s a good trip for inexperienced anglers and tourists.

Motion sickness medication - ocean is unpredictable. Have more cash on hand to tip the captain and crew better for such a great time.

This was a great 2 hour fishing adventure could have spent more time with Captain Rick and enjoying the views. Thanks

Sit back and enjoy you are in good hands they will take care of baiting everything overall, it’s a great family experience

I booked a different trip and it was not exactly what I hoped... this was a true fishing boat with crew to match. Would absolutely go out with them again.

Get a good guide - fish are pretty different in this area from other coastal areas in the mainland US.

Get ready for some sore arms these are some big boys. Exciting ride with some big fights and even bigger fish.

Make sure to bring nausea pills incase you're not sure if u get sea sick. Wear sunscreen and bring a hat and plenty of drinks. Make sure you tip. The crew works hard! Support the island!!!

Do it for the experience and just enjoy the time on the water. Definitely a great experience and fun with family.

Be prepared for the elements. There's a lot on motion on the boat. Keep you're eyes open and pay attention.

Get away from the bustle and hustle of the island city life and enjoy the sea...after all, there's plenty of fish in the sea.

Enjoy the experience. It's fishing so nothing is guaranteed. The waters are beautiful and the scenery is awesome!

Don't expect to catch big numbers or big sized fish just expect to catch fish and you will be happy with this trip.

If you think you might get sea sick take medicine night before. Waves can be a little choppy but boat is very big lots of room.

Trust they will take you out to the right fishing grounds. Can be slow due to weather at times but they will bite.

Remember it's fishing. If people caught a monster fish everytime they went out, everyone would be a sport fisherman for a living.

Ask for Captain Eric, him and Lucas were excellent and explained everything very well as to what to expect and how to bring it in.

This crew will go out of thier way to make sure you get a fish. They tried everything and it ended up working out. Amazing knowledgeable crew that was fun. Definitely would book again!!

Set your expectations. It's called fishing and not catching for a reason but the Captain and crew did their very best.

I picked a trip that would be good for first timeers...kids. I was completely satisfied with the whole trip.

Fishing anywhere is unpredictable; fish don’t bite, aren’t there, the weather is crappy, the water is turbulent, etc. The experience is worth it.
