Another special day 2 for 3 on blue marlin, releasing an estimated 550 in excellent health & having a 640 die on us. In our last two days out we have caught a 750,650,640 and 550 !! Lucky lucky.. This is some damn good fishing at the moment & just super stoked to be experiencing what’s going on here. If your not booked in with us this July, no worries August and September promise to be an epic late summer/fall bite ( I’m thinking this is when the really big ones could be around) we have open spaces……grandermarlin.com #benchmark #kona #hawaii #bluemarlin#fishing #tagandbrag #biggamefishing #bigbootygirls @pelagicgear #pelagichawaii #pelagicworldwide @fire_tailz #dredge @whitestackle @ BIG GIRL EYE CANDY
Fishing Reports
July 19th.
Fishing report. Had two days off and back on the water with a welcome surprise. 2 for 3 by 1 pm. Releasing a 550 and boating This 640 one which very unfortunately got tail wrapped at some stage and died on us. I have alot of respect for this particular fish, she ran harder then most blues I’ve ever hooked but came to the boat upside down so we are going to feed our friends. Wish we could have let her go but this happens in marlin fishing. Some great photos to come of the 550 we released in excellent health. #kona #hawaii #bluemarlin@pelagicgear #pelagichawaii @fire_tailz #dredge @squidnati0n The dead fish ate our Bart’s breakfast lure the 550 ate @koyalures808 #bullet as usual
Kona Fishing July 17th.
2 for 2 yesterday releasing healthy an estimated 650 and fat 750 lb blue marlin out of a double hook up. Great team effort on the benchmark @jayblesphoto did a outstanding job on deck, our angler Rob was tenacious and did a great job as well. Those fish tested us to the max and literally did everything wrong but we persevered and it’s A day to remember for sure.
Nothing like looking back off the transom to see 2 fish over 600 jumping all over the wake. I was laughing with excitement until I realized both were hooked good and we only had one angler! These big fish are obviously here spawning and are now starting to eat. Hang on folks, Kona’s about to bust off. If your not fishing July don’t worry I think August is gonna be a real big fish month, Just my 2 cents.
we still have July 26,27th open and a bunch of days in August. Dont miss out on what promises to be epic Kona Fishing, lots of big bites for da fleet to come. Book online grandermarlin.com. Big girl eat a @koyalures808 poidog xxl up behind the @squidnati0n bar dredge full of @fire_tailz. #benchmark #kona #hawaii #bluemarlin #bigfakaz#spawningseason #fishing @thebillfishfoundation #tagandbrag@pelagicgear #pelagichawaii #pelagicworldwide @ Grander Marlin Sportfishing

Currently we have 2 days left open to book in July 26,27 th. The smaller fish are starting to weed out its only a matter of time for the big girls to feed properly here. Been a grander already caught in Oahu and in Kauai and conditions are ideal for them to be here now. So any minute now simone’s gonna get the blue marlin of a lifetime. Get down here and roll the dice, it could be you !!! You can book at grandermarlin.com 📸 @jayblesphoto#benchmark #kona #hawaii #bluemarlin #fishing #sportfishing #37merritt@pelagicgear #pelagichawaii

Mark just popped his bottle of champagne. He finally got his first Blue Marlin. He’s been trying for awhile but finally sealed the deal down here in Kona, Hawaii. If you a novice or expert and want to catch marlin get down here! Just got fresh flashbou put on the Koya bullet yesterday by @pacificrimfishingtackle and it lasted 1.5 hrs in the water before getting blasted, thanks @hoesaintlaurel guess it works. #kona #hawaii #bluemarlin#benchmark #koyabullet @koyalures808 @pelagicgear #pelagichawaii#firstmarlin
