Trip Summary

Main objective was to find some fresh fish for Ryan S. and his group to eat while they're on island - we put iin a little effort and 15yr old Landon secured dinner landing a nice 28lb ono (wahoo). We switched over the lures and headed offshore with 68yr old April next up on the rod, we marked a nice fish on the fish finder and seconds later the short corner position went for a ride!! Like a seasoned vet our first time angler put the instruction/technique crew.an Wes Parker had given her to work and after a 25min battle we had her 500lb blue boatside!! After releasing the fish we were greeted with a large pod of dolphins in the glass calm cobalt blue waters of the Big Island which was the icing on the cake for the group - back to the harbor in time for brunch with lifeling memories, new friends and zip-locs of filets on ice for the grill!! Kona is incredible..
