Ohana Fishing Charters was amazing! We caught several ahi tuna and a blue marlin. Took home some fresh fish to eat as well. Captain Wendell and his deckhand Kailana were great, knowledgeable, and worked hard to get fish on the lines and in the boat. the owner Brit was great to work with as well. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a great time fishing out on the water. No notes. 10/10!

Just got back from Kauai and a charter with Britt and Kaulana. Trip was great! Water was a little rough, but Britt got us on the fish. Only 4 on board that day but we all landed. Would certainly recommend and go again. Mahalo Ohana Fishing Charters!!

We had a GREAT time on our fishing trip. Captain Wendall and his first mate, Kalana were top notch in their fishing skills. And Julius (the boat mascot) was the perfect addition to our trip. We also enjoyed the knowledge and conversations with the crew about the island and surrounding areas. Our trip was very successful—landing a smaller fish (though big for MN fisherman) we then landed a 60+ yellowfin tuna!! We also loved the whale activity we experienced. Highly recommend and will be

We had a great day on the water. We booked a half day trip with Brit from a friend’s recommendation for 2 of us. About half way through the trip we had a double hookup on Blue Marlins. Capt. Wendell and deck mate Koulana were great hosts.

What a great time. I’ve been on numerous charters in the past, and Ohana fishing charters was as good as any I’ve been on. I’ve done enough fishing to know you should enjoy the fishing even when the fish are not found. But we were able to experience a rare moment with two marlin on line at once. Despite the natural commotion to get em in, the captain, Wendell, and his mate had us working together to make it happen. Highly recommend these very personable guys who had us experience a better than e

Awesome first experience deep see fishing with the nephews off the coast of Kauai off Nawiliwili harbor with Ohana fishing charter. Thanks to Captain Wendell, Kaulana, and their assistant Miniature Dachshund Julius. We had a blast catching mahi mahi, and the excitement was off the charts! Captain Wendell really knows his stuff and made sure we were all set up for success. Kaulana was super helpful too, always ready to lend a hand and keep the good vibes going. Highly recommend these guys. Can’t

Had a great day on the water with Lance and his mate. Landed one Marlin and a few other fish. While fishing can be hit and miss Captain and Mate were fun to be with as waiting for fish to bite.

Captain Wendell was a joy to fish with. So laid back and cool. Very knowledgeable. Deckhand Kalana was so good with handling the gear and the fish. Both super nice to us guest. We will definitely use these guys again. We caught an out of season Wahoo/Ono. Good eating. Thanks Wendell and Kalana!!!

We went out with Captain Britt and Kaulana and had a blast. We caught a bunch of bait fish and then one of the people on the boat caught a huge yellowfin. We had fun and the crew was amazing and so nice.

What an amazing adventure! Britt and Kaulana were great! Very safety conscious for my pregnant wife-but did not take away from the fun of the trip! Fishing was phenomenal, and the weather was flawless. Perfection! We both had a great time! Highly recommend you take a chance on these guys! They made us feel like Ohana!

Ohana provided a fantastic fishing experience. Safety and fishing techniques were reviewed up front. We all caught nice fat Skip Jack Tuna which put up a good fight. Captain Wendell, his doggie companion Julius and first mate were all entertaining. Julius gets ecstatic when the reel begins to spin. The blue water off shore is breath taking. Thanks for a great charter. I’d do it again. Tedd and Julie
