With confidence in our fishing success, we guarantee that someone in your group will catch a fish, and most likely many more! If not, we’ll happily reschedule or provide a full refund. We stay closely connected to the fishing conditions and are proud to offer the only catch guarantee in the area.
Our Fishing Tour at a Glance
We offer premiere inshore and bottom fishing charters in Kona’s beautiful, calm waters.
Our family-friendly light tackle bottom fishing (50-350 ft) is fun because many of the fish are between 1-30 lbs, so your whole family can enjoy! This form of fishing is very interactive, entailing dropping weights to the bottom of the ocean, feeling for nibbles, baiting the hook, and fighting fish.
All catchable and edible fish can be kept; we will scale, gut, or fillet your fish to ensure they’re ready to cook.
While listening to music and relaxing, we’ll drift over seamounts, ledges, and sand patches, searching for different species to reel in.
Provided Fishing Gear:
- Top-of-the-line Penn Battle 3 spin jig rod and reel combos
- 50 lb braided spectra line
- 30 lb fluorocarbon leaders, each fitted with two size 14 BKN hooks and an 8 oz weight
