What types of yellowfin tuna fishing charters are common in Hawaii?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for yellowfin tuna in Hawaii as well as nearshore fishing.

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

How much do Hawaii yellowfin tuna fishing charters cost?

Prices for yellowfin tuna in Hawaii can range anywhere from about $843 to $1,726, but the average price for a half day trip for yellowfin tuna in Hawaii is $1,047. The average price for a full day trip for yellowfin tuna in Hawaii is $1,410.

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.

What month is best for yellowfin tuna fishing in Hawaii?

    Had a great time with Capt. Jeff & Chris! This is the best boat in Hawaii! Nailed a blue marlin and it was the best experience. We made memories for the rest of our lives. Highly recommend.

    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.

    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
