    BIG Ahi and some Aku

    6 Hour Trip on August 5, 2026 • 3 adults

    Jim and Sawyer know the drill. Jim ran the boat working the current seams and FAD buoys. Sawyer taught us how to fight fish properly, explained the different techniques we used, the fisheries biology, and Hawaiian history. They worked really hard changing lines, lures, and spots until the fish were dialed in! We caught some scad for bait and a couple skip jack tunas. Then we got a really nice yellowfin tuna trolling shortly after moonset! It was a blast being on the calm Kona waters. We saw lots of dolphins, a mega yacht, nice scenery, and the beautiful clear pacific blue water. The Ahi tuna fight and fresh lilikoʻi were awesome!

    We had a once in a lifetime experience!

    4 Hour Trip - 2:30 PM on July 12, 2026 • 6 adults

    We went deep sea fishing for my wife’s birthday hoping to catch something big! We found this boat and ended up absolutely loving it. We also felt like it was a good deal for what you get. The crew was super knowledgeable, experienced, helpful, great at teaching and very professional. We ended up catching some big tuna and had a great time. We were able to take a few smaller fish home to cook as well that they cut up for us. We seriously had a once in a lifetime experience and I mean that because I am not the type of person to write reviews. Definitely consider this charter if you are in Kona!

    Amazing Trip w/ a grand finale

    4 Hour Trip - 12:30 PM on July 10, 2026 • 2 adults

    Capt. Jim and Tevin were awesome. They asked what we were hoping for and they more than delivered. Everyone in our family of 4 was successful catching multiple fish (tuna) through careful consideration of where fishing was hot and following the feeding patterns of birds/dolphins. As we were trawling on the way back to the harbor a big tuna caught a grip and our 11 year old went to work in the fighting chair. After an hour long fight an ahi tuna over 100 lbs was successfully loaded on the deck. After we pulled into the harbor, Tevin carefully sliced up some fillets for us to take over to Panchos for them to cook us a delicious tuna mexican style. We had an unreal experience and are extremely appreciative of the attentiveness that the crew provided.

    Trip of a Lifetime!

    10 Hour Trip — Full Experience on June 11, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    I took my 11 year old son out on the 10 hour trip and we were not disappointed. We left the harbor about 5:30 AM and the bite got hot after a couple of hours. We hooked up on multiple striped marlin and we got to fight and land a pair simultaneously. We also had multiple "double hookups" on tuna throughout the day. We ended up landing two striped marlin, three yellowfin tuna, two skipjack tuna and some rainbow runners. The crew was fantastic and kept us on the fish. They cleaned some of the catch for us back at the dock and we ate like kings for the rest of time on the Big Island. You won't regret booking with Konadice!!!

    doesnt get any better than this

    6 Hour Trip - 6:30 AM on July 19, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

    The captain and his deckhand were very genuine and so knowledgable. I had smaller children ages 5 and 7 and they had a blast and we caught tuna all day and ate some of our catch fresh there. We seen so much wildlife dolphins whales in the distance and it couldnt of been any better. They were very family orirented and gentle why we fished for giants and gave us so many pointers including telling us of a great beach for the rest of our trip I am so thankful we rolled the dice with these guys.

    6 Hour Trip - 6:30 AM on July 10, 2026 • 2 adults

    Very friendly, even when the fishing was slow it didn’t feel like it because everyone was so nice talkative and super friendly and it just showed that they wanted you to catch fish like if it was them catching fish thet take very good care of you  highly recommend booking this charter and go all out get the longest trip you can. I definitely think it’s worth it wish I would’ve had more time out there  no question about it when I come back i will be booking the same charter again

    Great fishing trip

    6 Hour Trip (6:30AM) on June 22, 2026 • 2 adults

    We began our morning with a very nice sized Yellowfin Tuna and immediately after that, hooked onto a beautiful Blue Marlin with 4 Skipjacks following this. Our captain was very helpful in landing every fish we caught that day and provided lots of humor. His first mate Kevin was very helpful and went completely out of his way to make our experience everything we could’ve hoped and more! Me and my father were very pleased with our trip and wholeheartedly endorse this crew to any anglers looking for an amazing trip.

    We will be back!

    6 Hour Trip - 10:30 AM on July 24, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Teven and Dallas made our trip absolutely awesome! We have done a few charters in Kona over the years and this was the best yet. Dallas got us on the fish and Teven was excellent with helping my son and I bring them in. They made us comfortable on the boat and kept things simple, you couldn't ask for a better crew... not to mention we had a fun day and my son brought in 4 tuna alone! Our Konadice charter was premier living, and we highly recommend!

    One fish shy of the “Grand Slam”!

    4 Hour Trip - 10:30 AM on June 4, 2026 • 6 adults • 4 children

    We had the best experience with Capt Dallas and Tevin, they were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Our group was me, my mom and my 3 kids (age 10,10 and 12). We are all inexperienced anglers and they were very patient and willing to explain things multiple times to my kids. we ended the day with three skipjack tuna, mahi mahi, a shortbill spearfish and an 80lb yellowfin. Great vibes and good times, would recommend to anyone!
