Description:This trip is very popular for many of our guests as they have an opportunity to experience the 'Blue Water Safari' hunt as well as having the opportunity to catch smaller game using lighter tackle. We recommend a full day 'hunt' for this trip as we typically split the ' hunt' between searching the deep offshore waters for your billfish or tuna trophy and, approximately half way during the hunt, we turn our focus on angling smaller pelagic species adjacent deep offshore drops or FAD buoys. *

Product: Flyfishing Adventure
Description: This trip is designed to be an advanced 'booking' trip as our guests are generally accomplished flyfisherman and are required to bring their own gear. During this hunt we utilize a number of different techniques depending on the trageted specie desired by our anglers. We employ two crew during these trips as they are constantly working and interacting with our angler-hunter and we often use the 'bait and switch' technique in luring billfish to our anglers fly presentation. We recommend a full day hunt and advise that our guests contact our captain in advance of their scheduled arrival to discuss details and scheduling dates. *

Product: Inshore Reef Hunt
Description: This trip is fabulous as we target the generally smaller fantastic eating wahoo, mahi-mahi and small tuna while enjoying the beauty of the Islands coastline. We generally hunt these species in 240' to 300' of water using lighter, more manageable fishing tackle using artificial lures or fresh ballyhoo. We recommend a six hour hunt for this fishing trip. By the way, be prepared to 'hook' into a monster marlin as there have been many occasions where these huge gamefish have been angled in shallow waters! *

Product: Keiki Adventure
Description: This trip is designed solely to introduce our young anglers to this wonderful sport. Children as young as 5 generally enjoy this adventure and we typically recommend a trip no longer than 4 hours and there is much to see and experience without creating too lengthy of trip. We generally focus on hunting for smaller tuna and occasionally bottom fishing depending on what species we encounter on the way. Lighter and more manageable tackle is used during this fishing adventure and this is a great opportunity to preserve your child's memory of their 'first' hunt thru the reproduction of their catch. Taxidermy services are an integral part of our services offered! *
