Outstanding Jigging Trip with Captain Akihiro

Full Day Trip2 adults1 child

Captain Akihiro was outstanding. He worked hard all day to keep us on fish, and his experience really showed. We caught fish, had a great time, and learned a lot along the way. What stood out most was how calm, patient, and positive he was throughout the trip. He was always actively searching for fish and adjusting tactics to give us the best chance for success, while also taking the time to teach and explain what we were doing. If you’re looking for a captain who is both a skilled fisherman and a great teacher, Captain Akihiro is the real deal. Highly recommended for anglers of any experience level.

    Great time

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults

    Booked this trip as a late wedding gift for my brother and had a great time. Captain Aki took the time to show the three of us the zones and teach us his jigging technique, and even worked to accommodate us so we could use our own gear. Though the fish weren't biting, it was obvious that Captain Aki was knowledgeable and passionate about what he was doing, and it kept us stoked just to be on the water with him. My brother still managed one kahala and one kamanu and a couple of fumbled strikes, totally outfishing me and our buddy. We will definitely look to book with him again.

    best fishing charter on Oahu

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults • 1 child

    I highly recommend Akihiro hands down very precise fisherman and very knowledgeable on gear and the area. very friendly and out going and works hard to get you hooked up. Ive been on multiple charters throughout my years coming to Oahu and he definitely stands out of the bunch. he had everything (gear,bathroom,and water ect) we needed just bring snacks, strength and sun screen. also want to add he is great with kids letting him hang out with him on the captain console an teaching him the techniques. Next year I will be definitely utilizing jigging Honolulu again!

    great time.

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Akihiro was great with my son and I. has a lot of patience and wabts to teach. he had us catching fish using his mettods right away. nice boat and equipment. the boat is perfect for two passengers and the captain. lots of room for us all. catch and release is kinda perfect for vacationers we kept 3 only because my sister is local and we were able to process the fish our selves..

    Excellent jigging trip.

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Captain Akihiro does a great job and works hard to put you on the fish. We caught a good amount of Amberjack and Almaco jack on our trip. You need to work a little hard to jig these fish and much of the jigging is done in deep water using heavy jigs. if you are ready and listen to Captain Akihiro's advise on jigging technique you should be successful.
