Hinatea: 34′ Blackfin operating private and shared sport fishing charters

Maui Sportfishing at its Best

Our operating hours are Monday through Friday (closed weekends). Typical check-in time is 5:15am.

Fish caught aboard Hinatea Sportfishing include marlin, mahi mahi (dorado/dolphin fish), ono (wahoo), ahi (yellowfin tuna).

The fishing methods used on any given day depend upon a variety of factors, most notably season (live bait is more difficult to obtain during the summer), trip duration, weather conditions, and the previous day’s bite.

Probably the most consistent comments we receive about Hinatea Sportfishing have to do with her captain and crew. Captain Terry Kellem (a.k.a. “Killer”) has been sport fishing off Maui for decades. He and his deckhand share the Aloha Spirit at every opportunity. They love what they do, and they are genuinely pleased to have you on board!
