One off the bucket list! - Great time! Captain Brent and his deckhand were great! We caught a Bluefin Marlin and a rare Shortbill. Checked this off our bucket list! Highly recommend!

Brent and William were so... - Brent and William were so nice! Brent explained a lot to us about fishing, tides, etc. The lures were the biggest I’ve ever seen. Fishing on Hawaii was a bucket list item for us and it was amazing!!! The day was beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely go again with them if we are blessed enough to come back ❤️

We will be back again! - This had to be the coolest fishing trip anyone could have made! Worth every penny and then some. Captain Brent and Rooster were on point making us feel comfortable with everything. And everyone was stoked with the giant marlin that we caught. Then a couple of Mahi Mahi to sweeten the day! Thanks for the best day out of the whole vacation!!

Experience of a lifetime! - I couldn't be happier with my choice of this fishing charter! The crew's knowledge and hard work truly stood out - they're easily the best I've encountered, and I've been on numerous charters. Our day was fantastic, filled with plentiful catches and unforgettable moments for the whole family. I'll definitely be booking with them again when I return to the island, and I'll be sure to recommend them to all my friends visiting Hawaii!

Hooking that 800 pound... - Hooking that 800 pound Blue Marlin ... the one that got away. Captain William and Rooster were highly skilled and knowledgeable about the local wildlife beyond their huge expertise with fishing. Great day and I will do it again next time I am in Kona.

Fish On! - What a fabulous day! We booked the 5-hour trip and had an amazing experience. Captain Brent and his team were great, they are very knowledgeable, polite and patient. We landed an ono within an hour! We had a wonderful time and will definitely book with Reel Escapes Hawaii during our next trip back to the Big Island. Thank you for helping us making memories!
