Kona Coast Ono & Ahi Charter

4.8 (6 reviews) Kailua-Kona, Big Island.

Shared six-hour trolling run for ono and yellowfin along the Kona drop-off. Your captain runs the spread, rigs the baits and puts you on fish; you bring sunscreen, a hat and something to keep the catch photos on. Rods, reels, terminal tackle, ice and licences are all included in the trip price.

Departures are from Kailua-Kona, Big Island. Check-in is thirty minutes before the scheduled departure so the crew can brief you on the boat and get lines in the water on time.

Boat Details

A clean, well-maintained sportfisher rigged for shared charters, carrying up to 10 anglers plus crew. Shaded cabin, marine head, fighting chair, outriggers and a full spread of trolling and bottom tackle. Coast Guard inspected and equipped with life jackets for every guest, including child sizes.

Fishing Season

Fishing runs year-round out of Kailua-Kona, Big Island. Blue marlin peak from June through September, ono and mahi-mahi are strongest in the spring and autumn shoulder months, and yellowfin ahi show through the summer. Winter trips trade some blue-water action for calmer, more predictable inshore conditions.

Weather

Hawaii’s trade winds keep most days fishable. Mornings are typically the calmest water, which is why the earliest departures book out first. Trips are only cancelled for genuine safety reasons — if the captain calls it off, you are offered the next available slot or a full refund, no charge either way.

Location

Kailua-Kona, Big Island.

Free parking is available at the harbor. Arrive thirty minutes before departure; the crew will meet you at the slip and help you aboard.

Third year in a row with this crew. They know exactly where to go and it shows.
