We caught a estimated 400 pound blue marlin this weekend. Summer is here but we do not have any tourist to take fishing. Hawaii has a mandatory 14 day quarantine for any visitors arriving to the Hawaiian Islands.

We have seen a lot of smaller blue marlin ranging between 125-200 pounds this month. We only caught one over 400 pounds. The fishing in Kona has been really good and all the charter boats are seeing blue marlin and spearfish almost every day.. The bug ahi tuna fishing is slowing down and mainly biting at night time now. We are about to start the Hawaiian International Billfish Tournament this week.   We have been seeing our fare share of big blue marlin this March.. Plus lot of other boats in kona have been reporting good size numbers.
Today we cooled off a little bit and just caught one blue marlin with no other bites... But the fish probably weighed around 250 pounds. Back at it again next weekend.  Was not able to fish last 7 days do to high winds and bad weather so we were eager and came back out on fire. We went 3-4 on blue marlin, 1-2 on spearfish, 1-1 on stripe marlin plus landed a mako shark and missed a mystery bite.
