Great Boat for Marlin and Yellowfin

3/4 Day With Fuel Service Charge2 adults

Great crew with pro experience. You get right on the fish quick trolling out of the harbor. The boat is super comfortable and big with top notch equipment to fish with. They have the best lures ready and use them according to conditions properly. I’ll be back in Kona and fish with them again next year.

    Blue Marlin!

    Full Day With Fuel Service Charge3 adults

    The captain and his mate were very knowledgeable about the waters around the Big Island, ran a very safe boat, and we hooked and released a blue marlin that might have been bug enough to win the tournament going on that day off Kailua-Kona. All in all, a great day on the water. Would definitely fish with them again.

    Great boys day out!

    Half Day With Fuel Service Charge3 adults

    Caught 110 pound blue marlin and was the experience of a lifetime for my son who really wanted to catch that exact fish. fantastic experience overall because of the captain and crew. They also made great recommendations were to have lunch after and we really enjoyed their stories. make sure to bring non-spray sunscreen so the boat deck doesn’t get slippery. bare feet is the best when you’re walking around on the boat deck as you get the best feel and balance.

    no catch. But still awesome.

    3/4 Day +Snorkel W / Fuel Surcharge - 7:00 AM2 adults

    this is a very comfortable boat and the crew is always very professional and fun. We caught a a huge marlin the last time but this time even though we didn’t catch one it’s always great. It was south and my 16-year-old nephew we will be back.

    January fishing trip

    Full Day With Fuel Service Charge2 adults

    Had a wonderful trip. The captain and mate were very personable and professional. The weather that day was a factor. The rain, wind and swell caught up to us. The captain tried the best he could to put us on fish. The mate continually swapped out different lures with different shapes and colors. At the end of the day we didn’t catch any marlin but we still had a great time.
