Full Day Trip

Went for a full-day charter with Tantrum Sportfishing. As can happen with any fishing, we thought we were going to come up with empty hands. Even then, we were in great spirits and having fun on a beautiful boat, trolling along the beautiful Kona Coast. Had a great crew who were being just as attentive to the fish as they were to my family. In the last hour of the charter, they got another hit on the screen.

Wow, what an awesome review — thank you so much for sharing this! We’re thrilled your first Deep Sea Fishing in Kona adventure checked off a bucket list dream. You nailed it — sometimes the wait makes that first bite even sweeter! We’re so glad you got to experience the excitement of those mahi mahi, plus the whales and dolphins along the way. It was our pleasure having you aboard Tantrum, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime for another unforgettable day on the water!

My wife and I chartered Tantrum Sportfishing for a full day and it was an amazing experience. Capt. Nick was great and the deck crew, Mitch and Ryan were a pleasure to fish with. They were all super knowledgeable and eager at explain what they were doing to catch big game fish off Kona. It was a tremendous experience, can’t wait to get back to Kona and charter them again!
