Hawaii Fishing Reports, Detailed Fishing Reports

Please enjoy our fishing reports and please post your own report for your state or region. Doesn't matter where you live or what region you fish as we try to display fishing reports for all types and styles of fishing. Fly fishing, surf fishing, wade fishing, to fishing 100 miles offshore in the Gulf Stream off the mid-atlantic coast are just some of the types of fishing reports we display. And that was just the saltwater fishing which is far outnumbered by all the types of freshwater fishing reports we see. We get freshwater reports for bass fishing in Mississippi to mountain stream fishing for trout in Colorado to Salmon fishing in the Great Lakes. Speaking of the Great Lakes, Michigan seems to be very popular for charter boat Captains and their fishing reports.

Some anglers just like to read certain fishing reports from exotic locales and dream about the day they will be able to take a fishing trip to whatever fishing paradise they are thinking about. For instance we have Key West fishing reports that tell us about extreme light tackle fishing and the excitiment of fighting a 100 pound tarpon in 3 feet of water while he sometimes walks on water during his effort to escape the pull of the angler and his rod n reel. Key West provides plenty of fishing action but for some it is not a likely destination so they read the reports and dream about a Key West fishing trip. Who knows? In time maybe those anglers that dream about fishing in a far off paradise will get their wish eventually and instead of their own Hawaii Fishing Reports they will write a report about their tropical island fishing vacation.

Kona Hawaii fishing report – June wrap-up .

The summer marlin bite is kicking into gear so marlin are now a daily sight on the catch board. Mostly blue marlin but the striped marlin are also making a showing. Last summer we had more striped marlin show up in the summer than we did in that previous winter even though the winter months are the peak season for them. It’s very possible that we will see the same thing happen again this summer because this last winter, there were very few around. The spearfish bite has been in a real state of flux this season with them showing up in numbers for a while, leaving, showing up again and then leaving again.

Big Yellowfin tuna are remaining a regular catch on the board with some days good and some days not so good. These are one of the most fickle of the pelagics. While working the porpoise schools, you can mark them on your finder but only they decide when feeding time is. I had one customer insist we go work the school all day because he had heard that the bite was good. We worked the school for many hours along with several other boats and several methods were being used. Green stick, dropping bait, trolling and during all that time, we saw only one boat catch one tuna. The customer realized that the fishery wasn’t what he thought it would be (pulling in 100+ tunas all day long) but the day before, almost everyone who fished the porpoise school caught tunas no matter what method they were using. The customer was basing the fishery on the best bite day we saw all this month. The day we fished was more typical of the fishery. The ono bite isn’t much different with some days being really good and on other days you can spend your whole day trying without a single bite. Mixing up the day targeting all kinds of fish and switching methods is the best way to have a successful trip.

The bottom bite has been fantastic due to several commercial fishermen dumping tons of anchovies and chunk bait as chum while targeting the smaller “shibi” size yellowfin tuna near the airport. I’ve been catching and dropping small skipjack tuna in the same area and the bites have been almost instantaneous! GT, amberjack, almaco jack and sharks abound in this area right now. Big tiger sharks are among the group and we’ve been hooking ‘em but as yet haven’t been able to get one up to the boat for the photo and release this month. Last March in that same area we caught and released a tiger just under 2000 lbs. and just this last week we had another tiger follow up our catch that looked to be about ½ that size. It’s hard to tell how big they are while they’re still under water so I need a volunteer with mask, snorkel, fins, measuring tape and a good life insurance policy with me as the beneficiary.
