ShoreTrips says...

This fishing charter is perfect for beginners and seasoned anglers alike. The crew in Hilo is truly invested in making sure your experience is fun, safe, and memorable!

What makes this fishing charter stand out is the experienced and attentive captain and crew. Just a short drive from Hilo's cruise ship port sits a boat harbor where you'll begin your fishing adventure! This fishing charter is one of the few in East Hawaii, so you can expect to be out on uncrowded, Big Island waters.

The captain's vast knowledge of the waters up and down the East coast of Hawaii makes for a once in a lifetime experience. You'll be guided along the shores of Hilo, Wainaku, Paukaa, and Papaikou where the best fishing spots await.

With a powerful 300 hp Yanmar engine, you will get to several fishing spots in a timely manner, ensuring you get the most out of your day. If needed, the crew can assist you in setting up your equipment under a shade top, so you can stay cool while you fish. You have the opportunity to catch Amberjack, Jack Crevalle, Black Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Swordfish, Wahoo, Tuna, and more.

You'll feel safe and sound with the captain and crew as they carry all necessary safety gear including life jackets and first-aid equipment. The entire crew is also CPR-trained.

At the end of your charter, the crew will clean and vacuum pack your catches at the dock for you to take home and enjoy as a meal. This is truly an unforgettable experience!
