Well worth your time! - What a great time on the Kona Cowboy! While we didn’t catch any fish, I would highly recommend taking the time to just enjoy the ocean and views. My 7 year old son had an excellent time! The crew was top notch and the boat was immaculate. I would 100% go again with the Kona Cowboy!

Best fishing in Kona! - Great crew! Boat was stocked with goodies and a relaxing spot to sit while waiting for the fish to bite. My 8 year old was given proper introduction to reel in a 400lb Marlin(with a little help from his dad and the crew). Great day on the water! Can’t wait to cowboy up on our next visit to Kona!

Clean boat, Great fishing - Half day charter, Great knowledge captain and crew, knew the waters well to land 6 large Ono in a single trip which was perfect for helping a 9yo on their first fishing charter. Would recommend. left us plenty of fish for 2 dinners.

Clean, comfortable boat with a ver knowledgeable crew - Incredible. Loved it. We didn’t catch fish until the end of the trip but even if we hadn’t caught anything it would have been worth it. Nice boat. Great crew. Tournament class boat and equipment. Good sized boat. Comfortable for four of us, three of whom are leas enthusiastic about fishing than the fourth. Very knowledgeable crew. Shawn knows his stuff. He had multiple presentations at varying depths. Very strategic approach. We fished for Ono. Captain Gordon was great as was first-mate Gauge. Gauge even managed to capture us landing fish on video. Would definitely do it again.

Had a great time with the Kona Cowboy - Had a good time on the Kona Cowboy. My wife and I had a 4 hour trip about 1000’ off the coast looking for Ono and Mahi. There were some long dead times but a hour in we had two large Ono on the line at one time. Both were in the 40 lb range. Two hers passed with no activity then we got two more within 30 min of each other in the 25lg range. We got to keep one of the four which was fine with my group. The others are sold off. The fish we kept was cleaned by the crew and the advised us on storage and prep. I would book with them again.

Good times! - This was my first time deep sea fishing, and I had a blast. Within the first 10 minutes out on the water we caught our first Ono, and ended up catching 4 total! Captain Shawn and Sawyer definitely know their stuff, and went out of their way to provide us with a great experience. Highly recommend Kona Cowboy Sportfishing!
