Lahaina Fishing Reports

Use a reputable charter and pay attention to the captain. It definitely paid off for my family.

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

Make sure the captain and crew are knowledgeable about what you are catching. There are a lot of endangered species or illegal to catch fish in hawaii so if not could get in some big trouble real fast

Take a shorter trip before jumping in big. This trip would be good for kids greater than 12

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.

Just like fishing anywhere. There’s a reason they call it fishing and.not catching…. Lol. It’s still a great time.

Do your homework and understand the season availability of the species you are targeting.

Great couple of hours on the ocean with Captain Danny & first mate Issac on the Sashimi.

Just remember it is fishing. You take a chance on not catching anything. But you get a great time on the water.

Relax and enjoy the day. Fishing is fishing. Some days are great and some are not.

This is definitely a first time, small catch, family fun type of outing. Boat was great for a party of 4, unsure how it would be for more people. Please note, taking seasick meds with you is probably a good idea, even if you think you won't need them.

You are able to have lines in the water right out of the harbor. Beautiful scenery. Great place to fish

2 hour trip is reasonable price to get out on water and catch reef fish.... big stuff you wanna go half day at least.

Go with the attitude of fishing, instead of catching. If you catch something that is a plus.

Experience is awesome just make sure what time of year you go and remember that it’s called fishing not catching.

keep your fishing expectations to a minimum. The boat experience was good however.

Enjoy the ride. Keep expectations low, no stress and hope for the magic. When it happens, everyone wins!

Take your seasick pills and dont get upset if you dont catch its fishing you dont always catch

These waters are not a "first timer" fishing - the waters can be rough. Be ready w/ a scopolamine patch!

It is deep sea fishing, so it can be rough out there. Beautiful area to fish in!
