Well we hit the open water at 5:30am paid for the charter from (6am-2pm) and got off the water about 3:45pm. The captain was super awesome and definitely more about the fishing than the money! They started trolling lures right away on the drive to the bait fish schools about a hour trip from the pier and got some bait. We then trolled to the blue marlin areas and dropped live bait. We fished until 2pm and only slowed down to catch more bait fish. We wasn’t catching anything so the captain told them to give me the pole and let me try jigging for the bait fish. I pulled in around 15-20 bait fish for the boat, it was awesome and very tiring lol. We hadn’t caught anything so the captain just kept going not caring that technically our trip was up! He wouldn’t give up! Then we hooked into this totally awesome big Blue Marlin! 8 and a half ft long, approximtely 180 pounds per the captain! It was awesome! He was willing to stay longer but the wife wasn’t feeling the best and I was exhausted. Absolutely the best trip ever! Would 100% recommend and if I ever make it back to Hawaii best believe I will be looking for Captain Shannon again! Thanks again for a beautiful boat ride and amazing fishing trip! Mahalo!

What a great day!  Started early and went to get bait.  Immediately trolled and hooked into a yellow tail that ended up turning into a Galapagos Shark right at the boat that ate it all.  More trolling until the last five minutes of the trip and we marked some fish.  Captain Shannon called it- we hit a marlin on the top rod and after seeing another right at the boat, fed him right there- DOUBLE!  What fun to bring in two 6 ft Blue Marlin at the same time.  We just beat the clock!  Thanks guys.

Caught 3 large marlin in 4 hours.  Crew first caught bait with NO BAIT just skill and bare hooks.  We had 2 marlin hooked at one time.  Capt Shannon knows his craft.  I will be back

We double up on the tunas ! Me and my brother in law both at the same time ! Figthing tunas while sharks was coming for my fish ! It was a great adrenaline rush and experience catching tunas and trying g to get them on the boat before shark would get it . Overall we caught 7 skipjack tunas everyone on the boat got to catch something , it was a great experience

A group of 6 of us took a trip on Feb 27th 2025 and we weren’t disappointed. We caught two Blue Marlin that put up a hell of a fight, one was 10Ft 350lbs and the other was 9ft and around 240lbs. Would definitely recommend Shannon and crew, very friendly and social.
