Our trip was fantastic.  We had been out three other times with other charters with limited enjoyment even if we caught fish.  My wife and I went out on a private charter with High Noon and had a great time.  Dallas and Sawyer were engaged and energetic the entire trip.  They explained everything we were doing and how things would work.  We hooked up three times and had two other bites boating one blue marlin.  I am sure missing those other two were due to angler error.  Size of the one we caught was estimated around 150 pounds.  More fun than I could have imagined.  Would recommend these guys to anyone interested in having fun even if you don’t catch fish.

This is the third charter I’ve booked here in Kona and the only one I would send a friend or relative too.

Not only can Captain Dee put you on fish, he is also a great guy to share fishing stories with while up on the bridge. He is a well traveled fisherman with great memories to share. If you like to swap stories you will enjoy some time up top with Dee!
As for down on the deck, Sawyer is a very knowledgeable and experienced fisherman with years of experience working the back deck! He started as a teenager and has bill fished all over the world. He is a wealth of knowledge and loves to share as much as you want to know. What a Great Guy!!

As for me, I’ve fished on many boats over my 32 years of chasing fish in blue water and this was and will be one of my most enjoyable and memorable! I will be back next year and I will be fishing on the High Noon with Captain Dee and Sawyer!!

PS. Yes! I did catch a Marlin!!

I was hoping for a few more fish, but I was pleased with getting to drop lines in the water the first few minutes. This was a half day afternoon trip so I wasnt holding my breath on a great day of catching. We seen so many tuna jumping, but they werent too hungry! However we did get to hook up on a purdy striped blue marlin! The crew did a great job of coaching me to get it in and helping every step of the way, even with a fellow boater crossing right over the line while pulling it in! They took care of the situation in a classy manner as well. We were lucky enough to get a whale spouting off just a little ways off as well. Who needs to pay for a whale tour LOL. As a bonus my 11 year old daughter got to bring in a nice tuna that we had for dinner. They were great with her as well. It wasnt exactly how I had hoped but they made it a good day none the less. Thanks guys!

We enjoyed the first trip so much we booked a 2nd with Captain Dee and Sawyer 6 day later! Even though there was a high surf warning and the waters were not as calm we enjoyed every minute of the experience bringing in another Marlin around 175lbs and had 2 Mahi Mahi on however we only got one in the boat. Thank you to Sawyer will have a replicata of it made for our wall!! We cannot thank Capt Dee and Sawyer enough for the amazing experiences we have had with them!
