Kansas old men - Never been out fishing on the ocean before. Captain Will and first mate Rooster were great. Caught 4 Marlins in a 6 hour trip. They were both very helpful and took the time to make sure we had a trip to remember.

Excellent Service - We did a private 6 hour fishing trip and had a great time! Brent and Jason were fun to chat with and went above and beyond to make sure we had a good experience. We learned a ton and will definitely book them again in the future.

Incredible Charter - My family and I had an unreal experience with Brent and his Captain of the day William. They are an amazing crew filled with tons of knowledge about the island. Will definitely be back with Reel Escapes Hawaii when we come back to Big Island. If you are indecisive about which charter to choose, these guys are the “reel” deal for sure!

Hebi - This was fun, but they fish for the “big fish”, and they will try hard to find them. However, like any “fishing”, if they aren’t there or don’t bite, you will not catch them.
In 6 hours, we hooked two short billed spearfish (69” long) and had a small female marlin checked out the lure, but she was too unsure and swam away. We saw a pod of pilot whales and a tiger shark named “Lavern”. We kept a small portion of our catch and were able to find a place to cook it for us. THAT was delicious!
Bring sunblock and layered clothing, the weather can be unpredictable. If you get seasick, Bonine works well. They will provide small snacks and water, but if you want something else, you can bring it. There is a Texaco gas station with snack and hot foods, west of where you turn in to the marina.
Have fun!!! The water is deeeeepppp!!!! And you don’t have to go too far off shore to find that out.

Very fun fishing adventure - The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable. The six hours passed quickly with conversation and views of the island coastline. We had three fish on the line and brought a very nice blue marlin up to the boat. The boat and tackle are top notch, I highly recommend this trip for a fun fishing adventure.

Great Experience-Family with Teens - Fantastic experience! You do need some patience. We had 3 teens/young adult with us and patience is not exactly their forte. It took a bit to get the first catch but then there was lots of activity. The captain did take some additional time since we got a later catch (not sure what exactly is the norm). Would 10/10 recommend!

Excellent Trip ! I’m Hooked ! Highly Recommended. - My first deep sea fishing experience and it was awesome! My wife and I booked this trip as part of our anniversary celebration. So we contacted Captain Brent to book a 6 hour fishing trip and we are so happy we did .
The boat was very nice and clean and stocked with bottle water and snacks for the trip.
Captain Brent and his crew really made this trip an unforgettable celebration.
They are very experienced at what they do and took care of all the details while we enjoyed the boat ride and seeing how everything works.
After a couple hours we hooked a pair of spearfish and let me tell you, this was the moment we were waiting for, full of adrenaline pumping and excitement!
a lifetime moment we will never forget.
We really enjoyed this trip and I highly recommend Reel Escapes Hawaii for your fishing adventures. Great for groups or as a couples trip you will have a great time with Captain Brent and his crew, they will work hard to give you a great experience.
I will be a returning customer every time we are in Kona

Bucket List - Excellent day on the water with Captain Brent and deckhand Matt. All gear provided. Great boat. The crew was knowledgeable and very accommodating. Caught three beautiful Mahi Mahi and one was a bull over 50 pounds. I will definitely be fishing with Reel Escapes on my next trip to Kona. Would highly recommend to anyone.
