Nearshore trolling at West Side Oahu offers a distinct and enjoyable salt-water fishing experience, contrasting the high-seas adventure of offshore big-game trolling. This local approach can be incredibly productive and enjoyable, especially without the challenge of navigating the larger swells found offshore. Our crew has shown significant improvement in targeting nearshore species, recently landing an impressive 31Lb Ulua just minutes from our home harbor. This highlights the excellent fishing opportunities available right in our backyard. This nearshore experience is particularly suitable for kids, families, and couples who seek the excitement of fishing without the need to venture far offshore. It's a great way to catch decent-sized fish while staying close to shore. For those looking for a rewarding fishing outing that's accessible and family-friendly, nearshore trolling on the west side of Oahu proves to be a fantastic option.

The Ono, also known as Wahoo, is a popular game fish found in the warm ocean waters around Hawaii. The Ono fish season in Hawaii typically peaks during the summer months, from May through September. This is when the water temperatures are ideal for the Ono to thrive, and they are often found closer to shore, making them more accessible to anglers. The Ono is known for its speed and fighting ability, making it a challenging and exciting catch for sport fishermen. Its flesh is firm and white with a mild flavor, highly prized for its culinary versatility and often featured in local Hawaiian cuisine. Whether grilled, seared, or served raw in dishes like poke, the Ono fish is a seasonal delight that captures the essence of Hawaiian seafood.

I love fishing with our charter customers but some days we are not booked yet we still go fishing and check what is out there. This blue marlin decided to slam our lure just 2.5 miles outside of the harbor while on the way back coming in 10 min before sunset. She give us a very good fight and showed stubborn attitude while leadring. It came to be lb 230 and it was shared it with our community. When you love to fish you just go fishing cuz you can never catch em from the couch or from IG posts.. they are out there and that’s where we love to go.
