    Maui, Hawaii -- Sportfishing

    Aloha Folks!!!



    Ono Noah checking in here with you and hoping you and yours had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!



    The fishing has been hot as of late, with many Mahi Mahi, and an abundance of Ahi! We also tagged and released an estimated 150 lb. Pacific Blue Marlin.



    The 'Action' boys got out early again, 3:30 A.M. departure and a quick jog to the 'K' buoy for an instant triple bite! Captain Steve Lambert 'Skillet' slid the first live opelu into the calm Pacific and fed the first Mahi within seconds!














    Elizabeth from New Jersey got her bait all bit up out at 'K' buoy and managed to snag some nice Mahi!







    After the flurries of Mahi Mahi had subsided, we packed up our gear and ran over to 'MC' buoy. There were some fun size Ahi around and they wanted to play!












    The 'Action' boys were putting in work, Captain 'P-Rick' was circling 'MC' buoy at a perfect circumference, and the YFT were following the hum of his twin diesel turbo Yanmars.



    A total of 8 Ahi ranging from 58-89 lbs., and a few smaller tunas in the 15-25 lb. range. Some nice Mahi Mahi, a Tag & Release of an estimated 150 lb. Blue Marlin, and loads of happy anglers!!!



    Peter Cook from the U.K. had his hands full with this 62 lb. Ahi.







    Sam and Gloria had a glorious time out there with their fishing adventure! They are looking forward to getting out with us next year, see you then folks!







    James and his son Troy had fun turning the handle on these Mahi Mahi!










    Young James had a chance to get his first fish ever! Way to go James, we'll see you next year!







    Some nice Ahi and Mahi Mahi hanging out at the docks.










    What a fabulous day out there ladies and gentleman!



    Trials and tribulations are the foundation of what makes us human. I wish the very best to you and your family on this impending holiday season.

    Warmest Aloha and Mahalo,



    -Ono Noah

    The next bite on a jig.
    I have never been to Hawaii, but I always heard the boats leave late and take and easy run out. Not you guys. Getting it done before the sun comes up, week in and week out. Good job guys.

    Great pics Capt! Are those all 50 TLDs in the rocket launcher there? Seems like a lot of guys uses them for the "smaller" offshore tropical fish. (e.g. whites, mahi)

    Whatever camera Noah is using it makes those 50 -80 pound tuna look like giants. I need to get me one of those. Nice work Noah!
