About Kona Fishing

Kona is located on the leeward side of the Big Island of Hawaii. The western shores of the Big Island offer world class charter sports fishing combined with calm sea conditions. This is because the Big Island's tall volcanoes protect Kona from the trade winds making it possible to fish for large fish in very calm ocean waters. The water depth offshore of Kona drops dramatically. At just a few miles offshore you are at 6000 ft. deep, and it keeps getting deeper after that.

Although Kona and the Kohala Coast is famous for big fish like large Blue Marlin, other species of fish can also be caught. Ahi (Yellowfin Tuna), Mahi Mahi (Dorado), Ono (Wahoo), Aku (Skipjack Tuna), Kahala (Amberjack) and other species are plentiful here. Blue Marlin run all year. There are also 6 different types of Billfish.

Trolling lures is probably the most popular style in Kona, but live bait and bottom fishing are also options. There are many large fish that can be caught off the ledges and bottom such as amberjack or shark. You may only be interested in trolling for the large blue Marlin or you may be happy to focus on small skipjack tuna or bottom fish near the ledges.

The "Lil’ Steamer" is operated by Captain Rupert of Lobo Del Mar. Captain Rupert offers a half-day (approx. 4 hour) fishing charter leaving from the Honokohau harbor daily. The "Lil’ Steamer" is a fast and safe 32’ fishing vessel. The boat holds 6 passengers plus Captain and crew comfortably. All bait and tackle included. The cost for the half-day fishing charter is $450. (This price is for the entire boat whether you have 1 person in your group or 6. If we already have people booked the day that you would like to go then the cost per person will go down as the $450 is divided amongst all.) We can troll with live bait or bottom fish.
