Ratings & Reviews Summary

I've always wanted to try deep sea fishing, so I contacted Kona Dice and booked a trip. The captain and first mate got us on some fish quickly. It was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend this trip to anyone. Had a great time!

On a 4-hour morning trip, we caught a Blue Marlin (released) and a Shortbilled Swordfish (now grilling). We hoped for another catch, but the fish weren't biting. The crew was fantastic, and we would definitely fish with them again.

We had an amazing day on the water with three generations! My son caught a once-in-a-lifetime 160 lb marlin, and the crew was incredible in helping him reel it in. It was an unforgettable experience, and we can't wait to book again!

We booked a 6-hour trip with Captain Jim as a graduation gift for our grandson Brandon, who loves fishing. During the trip, all three of us caught some small tuna. Eager to catch a bigger fish, Brandon had two bites that unfortunately got away. Although slightly disappointed, he was still thrilled with the experience. Captain Jim, who was initially planning to take the next day off, generously offered to take Brandon out again to help him catch a big fish. Given Brandon's passion for fishing, we accepted the captain’s offer. We're so glad we did because Brandon ended up catching two big marlins. Captain Jim also shared various fishing techniques that only true fishermen know. Brandon was ecstatic, calling it the best day of his life. Captain Jim is kind, enthusiastic, and incredibly dedicated to his profession, working hard to ensure his customers have a great experience. We feel truly blessed to have found him and chosen him for our fishing trip.
