Kona 2012 Fishing Tournaments
There are at least eight major fishing tournaments produced in Kona, Hawaii each year and the Tropical Sun is available for charter in most of them.
Although we have regular tournament teams who fish with us each year many of these exciting events are open for charter. Prize money ranges from $65,000.00 to $250,000.00 in some of these tournaments and entry fees are generally not more than $2,500.00. You DO NOT have to be an experienced angler to consider entering these tournaments as most of the participants have been found to be novice at best. Get a group of friends or business associates together and pick one of the many tournaments available this coming year. It's great fun and always very thrilling!
Please contact Capt. Dennis Cintas for details on tournament availability, prizes, registrations and charter rates for these upcoming events.
