Hunting in Hawaii

For fishing, one of the best of the best in the world is Northern Lights, Kevin Nakamaru. He's also a hunter. He can put you on 1000 lb marlin, 200 lb yellowfin, wahoo, and even bottomfish. He's also an avid bowhunter and offered to connect us with his brother to go hunt axis deer. However, we were only in Kona for a day. Big regret not giving it a shot, though.

Reach out to him. https://fishingnorthernlights.com/

Yes Sir I second that. I have hunted with Kevin twice on the Big Island and he is a super good guy.
He also has the distinction of catching all the species of Marlin over 1000lbs in the same year….
 
I contacted the guys on Ni’ihau about eland hunting. It looked fun, and unique, but also very expensive. Easier to do that in Africa, I think.

My wife and I visited Molokai recently. It's a VERY different Hawaiian experience. Very relaxed. Very "country", as you might say. We say plenty of people hunting, and almost killed a deer with our rental car. There are huge areas that aren't populated too. I'd be up for that, maybe, someday. :)
 
Eek. Just looked at Eland at $7,000 day and trophy fee.
I am looking at Vancouver bull and possibly another sheep here in a few months. I have not decided on sheep or fishing charter. I though a once in a lifetime island hop for Eland would be awesome but not at $7k.
 
For sure-that’s airfare and trophy fee to Africa and then you have all the other options while you are there!

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
