Hooked Up Sport Fishing ... Kona, Hawaii
The Captain/Crew
Captain Chuck and Beverley Wigzell are the owners of the Hooked Up. Captain Chuck moved to Hawaii when he was 13 years old in 1986. His parents moved to Hawaii to open Pancho and Lefty's Restaurant. Chuck graduated college from Southern Oregon University in 1995. Where he received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration - Hotel Restaurant Resort Management. While going to college he also recieved his captains license. He has been a captain and running boats out of Kona since 1995. In 2005 Chuck and Beverley bought the Hooked Up.
When you book a fishing trip with me, you will fish with me. I do not book multiple boats and send you off with different captains. My goal is to give you a good fishing experience. I don't forget who is paying for the boat. There will be no yelling or screaming and making you feel bad while you are angling or if a fish gets off. Your paying for the charter and you deserve to have a good time. We really strive to be friendly and to have good customer service."
"I started the fishing business because I enjoy experiencing the excitement and satisfaction that people get after hooking a fish. I try to revolve the trips around action. Sometimes the trolling is slow and if you want action then we will fish for small tuna or bottom fish. I always strive to run a first class, friendly, and affordable charter service.
If for some reason I have to cancel your trip do to bad weather or mechanical problems I will refund 100% of your money. If I can help you with your vacation plans or need help with anything feel free to contact me.
My family owns Pancho and Lefty's restaurant in downtown Kona. Which I supply them with fresh fish. So if your hungry or thirsty we have great Mexican food and margaritas. They will even cook your catch when you fish with me plus you will get a discount off of your meals.
Meet the Crews
Bevan is holding up his favorite lure. He fishes with me June - August. Bevan is a captain and fishes around the world. He shows up when the blue marlin fishing gets hot in Kona. Then he's off to Cairns Australia to fish for black marlin. Then on to New Zealand to fish for the big stripe marlin. He is a very experienced marlin fisherman and fished with some of the best captains on his travels. He is very calm and cool on the deck.
Rocky Gauran fishes with me November 15 - March 15. Rocky's family owns 3 charter boats and a tackle shop in New Hampshire.
When Rocky is not in Hawaii he is running one of his fathers boats. They fish for Cod, Pollack, and Haddock. He comes to Hawaii in the winter months to escape the snow and the cold.
Rocky grew up in the charter fishing business with is father. He really understands how the fishing business works. He has a bigger captains license and boat than I do. He is very good with people and really works well with the clients.
