Marlin
If you're targeting marlin off the coast of Ocean View, Hawaii, you're in prime big-game territory. This area is known for its deep, relatively calm waters close to shore, which attract these apex predators. The best time to chase marlin here is generally during the summer months, from June to September, when the water warms up and baitfish are abundant. Focus your efforts on areas where you observe bird activity or current breaks, as these often indicate concentrations of forage. For a practical tip, many local anglers prefer using live bait, such as skipjack tuna or mackerel, presented near underwater ridges or seamounts. Pay close attention to water temperature and current; marlin often patrol the edges of temperature breaks. The marlin population here is healthy, but remember to practice responsible catch-and-release techniques to preserve this incredible fishery for future generations.
