Aloha, and Welcome to the Maui Sights and Treasures Blog! This post has been written specifically for our readers that want to know about Bottom Fishing & Maui Sport Fishing Combo Tours available!
The best thing about Bottom Fishing & Maui Sport Fishing Combo Tours is that you not only get to experience the thrill of the hunt for big game fish, but you also get to handle the pole, and put your own line into the water. When you reel it back in, hopefully it will have a nice big fish on the end! With Sport Fishing, the boat is fishing, and then you get to reel the fish in after it’s on the line. With Bottom Fishing, you are the one who is fishing! OMG, and what fun it is… Check out the fish I caught! Grey Snapper is really good eating!! Here in Hawaii, we call it an Uku. We also caught plenty of Blueline Snappers (Ta’ape) that day; most of which went right back in the ocean. We also ran into a school of Rainbow Runners, which are also very good to eat…
The day that we went on our combo fishing tour, there was a nice lady onboard named Val. She had no intention of fishing, she was going along with her husband for the ride and the Whale Watching. However, she did pay for the fishing vs rider price. Anyway, as I was fishing, she decided to let her husband bait her line and go ahead and fish off the side of the boat with the rest of us. Val caught the biggest fish! Let me tell you that by the end of the 2 hours bottom fishing, she was baiting her own line!
Bottom fishing is a fun, family friendly excursion to do here on Maui. Kids, and adults of all ages have a lot of fun fishing off the boat, and sport fishing. Searching for big game fish on the way to and from the bottom fishing grounds adds to the excitement of the day. We all got great photos of fish, Humpback Whales, scenic views, and generally had a great time!The boat has coolers with ice for beer, and otherwise the drinks were included in the tour price. I would recommend bringing some snacks, especially if you skip breakfast.
