    Caught a marlin

    8 Hour Fishing Charter 6:30am2 adults

    Just a heads up. If booking with fishbooker the price does not include local taxes/fees. That took us by surprise at the end of the trip. But anyway. We booked an 8 hr trip. I had the most amazing experience catching my first marlin. Captain Andy and Lineman Kerry were by my side to help make it happen. Unfortunately, that was the only opportunity the ocean presented us with that day. That’s why it’s called fishing they say. It’s an expensive experience I wish my husband could’ve gotten in a fish.

    Great friendly crew

    8 Hour Fishing Charter 6:30am6 adults2 children

    Family of 6 and we came to Kona for the worst weather in 30 years. Had a trip cancelled on Saturday for weather and this was our last shot. Booked last minute and Capt Ryan called to warn us he wasn’t sure but was hopeful for Tuesday. Weather worked out. Capt Ryan and Mate Cary were very friendly and answered all questions. They kept working to put us on fish and boy did they. My Wife and daughter got their first blue marlin and my son got a spearfish. Then capped it off towards the end of the day with a triple on yellowfin tuna. All around a great day. A+ outfit

    No Fish, But Still a Great Experience!😀

    6 Hour Fishing Charter 6:30am6 adults

    We had a great time deep sea fishing! Our group was pretty exhausted, so we were definitely running on low energy, but we still had a lot of fun and enjoyed being out on the water. Unfortunately, we didn’t catch any fish, but we got to see dolphins and whales, which made the experience totally worth it! Even without a catch, it was a fun memory and a great way to spend the day in Hawaii!

    Great outing!

    6 Hour Fishing Charter 6:30am4 adults

    Wife and daughter were able to catch naps during the trip. Boat was comfortable and smooth (even air-conditioning). Crew mentioned that it was slow day but had several bites. Caught a nice short billed spearfish. It tasted incredible and shared it with several others where we were staying. Recommend considering if you want a great comfortable charter!
