What types of wahoo fishing charters are common in Kona?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for wahoo in Kona.

The most common fishing techniques in Kona are heavy tackle fishing, trolling, and artificial lure fishing but live bait fishing and light tackle fishing are popular as well.

How much do Kailua-Kona wahoo fishing charters cost?

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

    Lance the captain and Jack the mate are an excellent and knowledgeable crew! The boat is comfortable with plenty of room. The day started off a little slow but got pretty exciting with multiple bites resulting in two Blue Marlin getting brought up to the boat! Highly recommended booking with Lance.

    Captain Dale and his crew were fantastic! Even though the bite was slow we landed our target species a 30lb Mahi-Mahi and a 250-300 lb Blue Marlin.

    Trip: Kona Big Game Fishing - 31’ Bertram

  • ★★★★★
    Dale and his deckhand were extremely professional, my father is an older gentleman that is not very mobile, they went above and beyond and accommodating for him, and my son caught his first blue marlin!!!!! They were wonderful and I’m looking forward to another day on the ocean with him tomorrow, if it was anything like today, it will be a day to remember

    Trip: Kona Big Game Fishing - 31’ Bertram

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. Dale and first mate Jack were great. The 31’ Bertram was clean and spacious and ran smooth as can be, and the canopy came in handy on a Sunny day. While the Marlin fishing was slow (listening to the radio, none of the boats in the tournament caught), we couldn’t have had a better time swapping stories with Dale and Jack, downing some Big Island brews, taking in the scenery, and watching whales breach. Hope to do it again soon! -Jonathan with Captain Experiences

    Everying as promised. If you want a fishing experience captain Dale is your man. We had an amazing day and Dale and Jack took care of us. Can't say enough about the experience and we had ages 8 to 80 involved. Great times.
