We were 3 adults and a 9 year old boy who really wanted to catch a fish. The boat was bigger than we expected. The crew seemed most interested in big fish, Marlin, at first. Thatโs Understandable. This is big fish country. Once they realized the importance of the trip to my grandson, they focused on making his day, which made the rest of us very joyful. They know what theyโdoing and he got to reel in a Mahi. We went 2 for 3 on Mahi and 0 for 1 on something bigger.ย It looked at our lure twice, but never took it. it was exciting. We saw whales and fish jumping everywhere. Itโs was all that we expected in a fishing trip.

The boat was plenty big to accommodate our group. Thunderstorms rolled in halfway through our trip, but that didnโt stop David & Tara from working their tails off to put us on fish. They definitely have a passion for chasing fish. We caught 1 Mahi Mahi during our trip. David filleted the fish for us, and we had enough meat for several family dinners. I would fish with these two again given the opportunity. Thank you for all your hard work ๐
Me and best mate had a blast on silky!, Dave and Clayton are great for chats & laughs, knowledgeable and well set up. Boat is clean and had all that we needed
It was not our day for any large catchs(such is the nature of fishing) but we pulled in 2x skipjack (1 for live bait the other for poke, both good sizes and fun to pull in on lighter gear) - the boys called other captains/friends to ask if they had any hits and did all they could to get us a hookup but thatโs the game. 100% would go out with them again and probably will next time in Hawaii. Thanks again gentlemen, keep up the the good work -Leeuwin & Jake ๐ฆ๐บ๐

this wa sour swcond outing with silky and tjough we disnt catch any fish this time the say was beautiful and the crew was friendly. they gave fold recommendations and chated worh us about fishing things and island stuff. We will hopefully get to fish with them again next time!
Thanks for fishing with us and enjoy the rest of your stay in Hawaii
Great weather, calm waters, and knowledgeable crew. Long trip and only managed to catch a single blue fin tuna between all of us. No fault of the conditions set forth for us, but I would level set your expectations when booking any charter in the Kona area. Catch seems to be super limited and mostly by luck and chance. Depressing given the Marlin capital of the world. Donโt expect to catch a ton of fish per person on any standard charter.
