Originally from Florida, fishing trips are familiar to me. This trip was a complete disappointment! Thank goodness the scenery was beautiful. The fishing lines didn't use steel leaders, the hooks were the size of hooks used for small freshwater fish such as bluegill. certainly not for the likes of a saltwater fish. Also I felt like a child when the crewman handed me one "dixie" cup with bait to share with the two friends that came with me.
The fishing excursions I've taken in Florida included unlimited bait, each person receiving a bucket of their own and unlimited trips back to fill the bait bucket as needed, LARGE hooks and STEEL leaders on large shark type poles. There is never any guarentee of catching anything, but at least if you hook one you havwe the ability to reel it in. The one fish I did hook was to big for the supplied equipment. That's no fun and certainly not sporting.
Very disappointing :(

It was a great time and great staff. It was a great night and had a big full moon. 30 seconds into the demonstration we had our first shark bite. Only downside of the trip was we only caught two for the boat which wasn't normal. We had a blast on the boat anyway though.

We had a lot of fun. Cooking and sharing the catch was a treat. Don't expect gormet food, but it was OK. Also don't expect to catch a lot of fish or anything BIG. Fishing around the island does not compare with deep sea fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. Take it for what it is, a fun time and a great view of Waikiki, at a reasonable price! We will do it again next time.

This was my second time on the sashimi II. The trips were very different. This trip there were only 8 people very nice, but no fish. The pickup was a mess. The driver thinks that it is better to park and go look for the guests instead of pulling up in front. Too many one way streets for him. Whatever. Don't think I will go again, but for the price even if you don't catch fish, you get a boat ride with dinner, and a sunset.

Mike and I had a great time fishing with your company on Saturday. Jason and Nate were a very knowledgeable crew and kept the action going throughout the trip. We enjoyed eating our part of the catch the next day. I will recommend you to my friends visiting Honolulu in the future and will look forward to another fishing adventure when I return. Thanks for a good time, Mike & Mauro Serrano

It was my First Experience going to Fishing. My Husband wanted to took our Son to the Fishing, but I wanted to keep him safe, so we desided to join this Activitie (cause, I heard this Sports fishing activitie can go with experienced staff, and safe!).
Our Son caught MahiMahi and Ahi, and he looked so happy!
Staff was very friendly and had lots of Knowledge about fishing! Thank you for the great time. We will come back again!

Even though we didn't catch any fish, I found the experience enjoyable. I learned a lot from the friendly staff, and would go again next time I'm in Hawaii. Hopefully we'll catch something next time.

My husband and I went fishing one night in Oahu. It was not quite what we expected. The whole boat caught maybe 5 fish around 6 inches long. The bbq dinner was some chili out of a can on some rice with a hot dog minus the bun. There were no drinks, the captain and the crew member had soda, but none for the rest of us. We did see a beautiful sunset, and it did get us onto the water. I don't think we would do it again.

Here are some things you need to know before you go on this adventure.
1. Bring your own food
When you first get on the boat, you will be given a plate with 2 hamburger patties (at least it looked like hamburger), a hot dog, rice (very bad rice), and it is all smothered in beans. You do not get any buns for the hamburgers or hot dogs or a choice on any part of the food. My son hates beans but since we were not asked anything, the whole plate was covered with beans over the meat and rice. The food was nasty but if your hungry you have to eat it.
2. Bring your own drinks
Bring your own soda or beer since the only thing available on the boat is water or juice.
3. Bring hand sanitizer
you will be baiting your own hooks with raw, sticky tuna chunks and the smell with stay on your hands for the whole day even after trying to scrub it off when you get back to your hotel. Bring gloves or hand santizer, you will thank me.

My Dad and I just went on the Daytime Bottom Fishing trip and we had a blast. My Dad caught the most fish of anyone on the boat! I only caught one but it was really pretty. Some people caught fish you could eat so they cooked it on the back of the boat and we all got to try it. The rest of the lunch was local Hawaiian BBQ and we both liked it. Great Trip!

The Sashimi fishing trip was well done. We were picked up at our hotel on time. Chuck and Henry helped newcomers set up their poles and with the fish when they were caught. The barbecue was well done. Would recommend it to anyone looking for something different to do in Hawaii.

We participated with 11 people, but only 4 of us caught fish. However, every time a shark was hooked, there was a huge commotion on the boat, which kept even those who weren't catching anything excited. The fishing method involved using chunks of skipjack tuna as bait, which were prepared and lowered into the sea, so there was nothing difficult about it; we just had to wait for a bite. Even after getting a bite, the staff would set the hook and only then hand over the rod, providing support during the fight, so we just had to follow their instructions. I've caught various fish before, but the pull of the shark was incredibly strong. Since it was night fishing, we could enjoy the remaining time, and we also got to appreciate the night view of Waikiki and the starry sky from the boat. The only downside was that when we were getting off the boat, there was an excessive request for tips, which left a bit of a bad taste. That said, I think I will sign up again when I go to Hawaii.
11人で参加してヒットしたのは4人だけでしたがサメが掛かる度に船中大騒ぎになる為釣れていない人も興奮できました。釣り方はカツオのぶつ切りを餌にした仕掛けが用意してありそれを海に下ろし後はアタリを待つだけですから難しいことは何もありません。アタリがあってからもスタッフがアワセをして完全に針掛かりしてから竿を渡されますしファイト中もサポートしてくれますから言われるとおりにするだけです。今までいろんな魚を釣ってきましたがサメの引きは桁違いに強烈でした。夜釣りですから余った時間でできますし船上からワイキキの夜景や満点の星空も堪能できます。ただ残念だったのは最後下船する時にやたらとチップを要求されて少し後味が悪かったです。とは言えまたハワイに行くときは申し込むと思います。
