Let me tell you the reviews are all true. Spent four hours with Chuck and was disappointed. We came…read morewith no expectation but you can tell captain obvious is sick of tourists. The deck hands were polite but the captain Chuck is a joke. He was mean, condescending, and shouldn't be in the business if he didn't want to take people fishing. As a seasoned fisherman, his patience was cut short with everyone and you can tell he was annoyed. We had a full boat for an 11am morning of fishing and only four fish were caught. I know it's the luck of the draw but captain has to use his brain, knowledge of fishing this area, and know when to move when nothing is biting. Compliments to the deck hands for wanting to help and being courteous. But I see this business sinking fast if they can't get it together. Skip this experience and find a fishing captain who wants your business.

Sashimi 2......Its not a fishmarket…read more Sashimi 2....Its not a sushi bar What exactly is Sashimi 2???? Located in the same area as the Honolulu Screamer and other charter fishing boats, Its the name of a boat that offers "bottom fishing tours". What exactly is a bottom fishing tour???? You are taken for a 20-minute boat ride past Kewalo Basin, and taken to a few spots to do some bottom fishing (no trolling) for a couple of hours with beautiful views of Diamond Head and the rest of Oahu's South Shore. There are two bottom fishing tours you can choose from for $63 (Kama'aina Rate $42): Daytime Tour: 11:30am-3:30pm Sunset Tour: 4:30pm-9:00pm All bottom fishing tours include: Site Seeing,(Scenic Views, Possible Dolphin/Whale Sightings) Quick style kau kau of Rice,Beans, Hot Dog, and Hamburger,: Rod, Bait, and Tackle,Transportation to and from your hotel, and the best part? Cook your catch! Yes, as long as it's legal size(7 inches or more) edible, and not a protected species, they will clean it and cook it up for all to enjoy! Having been on both tours, one's not necesarily better than the other, because fish WILL be caught....(some may be luckier than others...) Daytime: Beautiful weather and conditions, we caught Moana, Weke, Nabeta, and Uku and we were fortunate enough to see a school of dolphins which was COOL! Sunset: Beautiful weather and conditions, we caught, Nabeta, Yellow Lipped Triggerfish, Lai, Akule, and Ta'ape...one of the staff members even reeled in a huge Garfish which he was gonna use for bait later that night for a Shark Hunt. SHARK HUNT!?!?! Yes, for all you adrenaline junkies, there is a Midnight Shark Hunt (Catch and Release) that is also offered for $125(inquire about Kama'aina Rate) from 9:30pm-1am. They even offer private charters (1/2 day $525, full day $825) where you and your buddies can go catch the BIG fish. (Mahi, Marlin, Ahi, etc.) Here are some helpful pro tips: -Sashimi 2 can take up to 50 people, but no less than 8 -Wear weather appropriate attire(Jacket, umbrella, flip flops, shoes, etc. according to weather conditions) -There are bathrooms on board, and you can fish anywhere around the boat, but cannot climb up top -You can bring food, snacks, soft drinks, etc. ( they have a cooler for that, and also offer fruit punch and water) -Bring binoculars/cameras for cool sites and kodak moments(beautiful sunset too!) -Take something for motion sickness if you can possibly get seasick...no refunds, and 2 of the 8 in our bunch were miserable... With all of that being said...... IT'S A GREAT IDEA FOR A UYE!!!!.....ALOHA!!!!

I felt super uncomfortable during my tour. We were taken up this river and he started moaning and…read morecomplaining about all the 'copy cats' who do similar kayaking tours who have now superceded him in business. I feel sorry for him for having competition but to outrightly complaint in front of a paying client is unacceptable and unprofessional. He also started talking about politics which made us extra uncomfortable. But what could we do, we were literally trapped in a kayak in an unknown part of Hawaii and depended on him to get us back. We were obviously uncomfortable but he didn't relent. It was the worst hour and a half I have ever paid for.

We booked with David and it was a great decision. From the start, he was professional, friendly,…read morekind, and knowledgeable. He is knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Hawaiian history and the island. We were strangers, but David made us feel like we were friends that knew each other for a long time. The tour was great and we saw a lot of turtles. He showed us different trees and gave us some history on them. We live on the island but have family that visit and we will use David as a guide again. I highly recommend him. Oh, his wife is also very sweet and friendly.

No fish after 8 hours, but that is part of it. Crew was nice and accommodated our needs.read more

Clint trolled hard all day, we just didn't hit pay dirt this time. Maybe switching tactics could have worked, but still he did a good job overall. Also everyone came home safe, which is always the most important. The Mazel Tov Boat is nice, fridge, air conditioner, nice fishing gear. Capt. was prompt and we left on time. I'd give the trip a C+ overall. Just needed fish on.

I needed to call to request the Kama'aina rate for my son and husband. The boat was on time and the staff were extremely helpful and informative especially for beginners. They visited different areas which allowed for scenic sightseeing. They caught some small fish and spotted a whale and pretty close to it. The captain was entertaining and funny. My husband and son got seasick an hour and a half into it so bring some Dramamine. Food and drinks are allowed on board so pack a lunch and snacks to help with the queasiness. The highly recommended Ohana Fun Fishing!

The location was easy to find and just a short cab ride from DT Waikiki. Prices were fair. Sea was ROUGH that day, everyone was sick! But when you're from landlocked Nevada, you may only have 1 day to get a 1/2 day fishing trip in between other sightseeing, and this was ours. So, Mother Nature had wind in the plans that day, what can you do? Would you rather OFF cancel each time its a little windy? My hubs, son & dad wanted to do a little fishing during our trip but no one wanted to commit to a full day. A little Father's Day weekend fishing for 3 generations of guys! This fit our plans & budget since we already had so many other sights booked. They took off about 11am and it was WINDY. Very rough ride but a memory they'll never forget, that's for sure. Pretty much the entire boat was ill, but the crew still helped with lines in the water and assistance with upset tummies. A few fish were caught and because of the choppy waters, I'm actually pretty glad they weren't out all day. The day's catch was cleaned and cooked, and it was DELISH. **Ohana crew, whatever that seasoning is...I'll be your best friend if you share what it was!!!** Overall, a memorable 1/2 day experience for a good price, but they aren't in control of the wind & weather, somehow I think people will complain no matter what the circumstance! Sheesh.

Kenny Karas checked the set up I had and gave me a few pointers, tips and his leader/tippet/lure combo out of his rod and I was catching fish the same day. Amazing! Then, another day at Kbay when I was taking my family cruising on my friend's boat I found out (the hard way) the battery was dead on my boat. Captain Mike was near by and offered a jump. Sounds simple but his boat was already out of the water and on the trailer. He went ahead to put it back in the water, drive around to get my boat started! Nice guy! BTW, I'll be buying more lures from Kenny K ;) Thank you guys!!

They cut cards when we got on and I drew #6 meaning I would have to wait until ALL 5 other guys hopefully caught a fish. We drove out 1.5 hrs in a straight line then turned around and came back in. 1 fish total. So I paid $300 for a boat ride. I asked the crew what they catch on average each day and they said usually 1-2, but maybe 4 on a GOOD Day. So basically there was ZERO chance of me catching a fish but they took my money anyways. Very Shady Way To Run Your Business!

Trolled all day and got one bite. 5 lines in, no live bait, lures only. Owners should be ashamed of this boat.
