About the Charter:
Start your morning off with a fun and engaging fishing experience on our Venture Nearshore Fishing Charter from Ko Olina. This charter focuses on nearshore and reef fishing, offering you the chance to learn about Oahu’s coastline and its abundant fish species.
Under the guidance of our expert captains, you’ll learn local fishing techniques, discover the best lures, and target various fish species based on your skill level. You’ll have the opportunity to troll the 40-fathom ledge for small tuna or jig the shallows for Papio (Trevally), Ta’ape (Yellow Snapper), or the elusive Uku (Green Jobfish).
As with all our charters, stay alert for wildlife, as ocean life can surprise you at any moment. You might encounter Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins, Humpback Whales (seasonal), Bottlenose Dolphins, and even Flying Fish!
Although we primarily practice catch and release, you may be able to take your catch home, depending on legal limits and the Captain’s discretion.
If you’re looking for deep-sea fishing, this may not be the right charter for you, but we’d be happy to provide recommendations for the best deep-sea experiences.
