Bucket list trip.

4hr PM Fishing - catch guarantee!2 adults

Four hour afternoon trip bottom fishing with captain Kihe and deckhand Tracey. My wife and I were treated to an amazing first time bottom fishing trip. Got to the the Grounds and first cast captain Kihe put me on the bite. This boat was amazing. Nonstop action. We caught some nice trivali, surgeon fish, uku, and several other fish. Captain Kihe spotted a big bird pile and asked if we wanted to chase Ahi, oh yeah buddy. They were there and jumping just didn’t hook up. We went back to the deep grounds and hooked some huge uku. 10 out of 10 I highly recommend this boat and crew. My wife and I had the most memorable experience.

Response from Charter operator

that sounds like such a fun trip. Thanks for all the details. And forgive us a shot. We’re glad you got some good ones and hope they turned out great at the restaurant.

    Was the highlight of our Trip to Hawaii!

    4hr AM Fishing - catch guarantee! • 6 adults • 2 children

    Wow...what a wonderful crew with Captain Kihe & Caleigh! This was a first time for our blended crew to fish together and it did not disappoint! The boat was stocked with drinks, snacks, great music during the ride out. Kihe was the perfect temperament to manage a group of teens, young adults, and their parents! We had 4 rods going at a time and both Kihe and Caleigh were quick to rebait lines and keep the fish biting! The best part, we caught around 20 fish and brough home enough for three meals to feed 6 people! The sashimi recommendation was a standout! Ocean Blue knows their fish. I cannot recommend this charter enough. It was truly the highlight of our trip.

    Great experience

    4hr AM Fishing - catch guarantee! • 4 adults • 1 child

    Everyone caught multiple fish and we highly recommend the catch and cook experience (we ate the Nabeta and Weke) which was amazing. We even caught a barracuda, and the kid in our group caught the most fish. We saw dolphins and flying fish. The captain and crew were great, making sure we knew what to do, changing baits, offering drinks and snacks. would 100% book again

    Great Time with Ocean Blue Kona

    4hr PM Fishing - catch guarantee! • 4 adults • 2 children

    My family and I were very lucky to have Captain Kevin take us out for a 4 hour fishing charter out of Kona. Kevin and crew have something very special going. We had constant action and caught several species. The crew is very personable, educational, and very good with kids. Captain Kevin is a class act and fun to hang out with. The boat and gear are great as well, with plenty of shade. Absolutely recommend for anyone looking to get out on the water in Kona. Best fishing charter we’ve ever had.

    Came through with their guarantee to catch fish!

    4hr AM Fishing - catch guarantee! • 2 adults

    Great trip! We pinged so many anglers before booking to make sure we found someone that would put us on fish. Most anglers are looking for trophies. We just wanted fish for dinner! Boat was comfortable - lots of shade. Captain Kihe and Tracy were amazing hosts working with us to ensure we landed fish. Communication lead g up to and after our trip was amazing. Definitely recommended for those looking to catch!
