UNMATCHED GUIDED EXPERIENCES

Fly & Light Tackle Fishing

Specializing in targeting Hawaiian Bonefish (‘Ō’io) on the fly, we offer encounters with some of the largest Bonefish in the world. The fishing is challenging, but the reward and sense of accomplishment after a thrilling fight are incomparable.

*Fishing is strictly catch and release only.

Axis Deer Hunting

Discover the unparalleled pursuit and reward of Hawaiian Axis Deer, considered by many to be the finest wild game meat available. Our hunts not only provide this exceptional meat but also play a vital role in controlling deer populations and preserving Molokai’s native ecosystem.

Customize Your Trip

For those interested in customizing a trip to include both hunting and fishing, we can help provide specialized packages that include both. Let our insights and expertise help you have an incredible experience and connect with the island's unique natural environment.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Nathan T.

    Hands down one of the best hunting and fishing trips i have ever been on. The flyfishing on Molokai is insane and Josiah took great care of us. Can't wait to be back again soon.

  • Leonard N.

    Hunting on Pu'u O Hoku ranch was one of the most unique hunts I have ever been on. Big thank you to Josiah and the team at Pu'u O Hoku for an unforgettable hunting experience.

  • Mingo O.

    Josiah is the real deal. He guided me to my first two double-digit bonefish, and he's great company for a day on the flats. He's also a walking encyclopedia of Molokai's history.

  • Jeremy B.

    We had an unreal time here on Molokai. Landed my first bonefish and axis deer on the same trip. Thank you Josiah for helping us out!

  • Peter P.

    It was great getting to learn about the Hawaiian culture and hunt in such a unique and beautiful area. Thank you to Pu'u O Hoku Ranch for the hospitality and Josiah for guiding us on an epic archery trip. You can count on us coming back next season.

  • Mike S.

    Josiah, I can’t thank you enough for helping my son and me catch our first bonefish! Your patience and knowledge made all the difference, and we’ll always cherish the memory.
