Fishing Charters

My husband and I recently went on a 4-hour deep sea fishing trip with Aloha Blue. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the views of Maui from the water were incredible. The staff and crew were also very friendly, he... morelpful, and welcoming throughout the trip.

That said, I was disappointed with the amount of actual fishing time we received. A significant portion of the excursion was spent traveling between fishing locations. At each stop, we were often given only about five minutes to fish before being told to reel in and move to another spot in search of more bites. Over the course of a 4-hour trip, it felt like we only spent around 30 minutes actively fishing.

While we did catch a few fish, I felt the trip could have been planned more effectively. As experienced local guides who do this every day, I expected the crew to have a better idea of productive fishing locations and to allow guests more time to fish rather than constantly moving. For the price of the excursion, I don't feel we received enough actual fishing time to get our money's worth.

Overall, the staff and scenery were great, but the limited fishing time left us feeling disappointed with the experience.

We enjoyed a beautiful day out on the water! We didn't catch any fish but the crew was excellent and we had a great time!

Bailey and Larry were fantastic! We did well bottom fishing, and then caught this 25 pound ono on the trip home! Great experience, great time would recommend to anyone

Trolling was a bust but the day was filled with catching small fish and seeing whales up close

Had an amazing time out fishing with the crew, my husband caught a couple fish and we saw so many whales up close. The crew and captain are very engaging and quick to help out, they cleaned our fish and gave us pointers ... moreon how to cook it. Such a great experience, would definitely do it again! Thank you!

Tour organizers were excellent, great communications. Captain Larry and first mate Zach were great, excellent hosts and put us on a bunch of fish.

Started slow, trolling until we reached the bottom fishing sites . Cau... moreght a few fish, including small barracudas. Finally hit a spot where the actions was wild, at one time five fish on at the same time. Zach ably handled it all, including taking our pictures with the fish. If you wanted to bring them home, Zach had some good recipes.

On the way into the harbor, saw over a half dozen whales. Great experience!
