Fishing in Kona with Capt. Dale Leverone and the Charter Boat Sea Strike
Capt. Dale Leverone and the charter boat Sea Strike have been featured
on ESPN and Lets Go Fishing, and are frequently highlighted in Marlin
Magazine, Saltwater Sportsman, Hawaii Fishing News and other publications.
Originally from Miami, Florida, Dale started fishing at a very young age and has fished in many ports world-wide.
Fishing recreationally as well as professionally in Miami, accruing several world and state fishing records there, Captain Dale
took his talents to other fishing hubs, including the Gulf of Mexico to Australia and Alaska, finally settling in Kona. Dale
holds multiple past and current IGFA world records as an angler and captain.
Dale has been fishing in Kona since 1985. In the years that followed Captain Dale's arrival in Kona Hawaii, he has built a solid
reputation as world class fisherman and captain. His peers and competitors alike consider Dale to be not only a hellofa fisherman,
but an honest, hard working fishing charter business owner. As owner and operator of the Sea Strike, Captain Dale is highly
motivated to take the best care of his anglers, whether they just want to cruise with the family and have a fun, relaxing day on
the water; or they are a professional angler looking for a world record or a big tournament win.
Sea Strike is a 31' Bertram, widely regarded as one of the most famous
sport fishing boats ever built. With its introduction in 1961, Bertram
established itself as a leader in fiberglass boat building methods,
and the Bertram 31 remained continuously in production for 25 years.
Its low center of gravity with engines amidships make the Bertram 31
a very stable, smooth-riding boat, which is critical not only for comfort
but also for fishing success. Fishing from a steady boat without pitching
and rolling is better all around, and her real strength is sea
kindliness at trolling speeds.
Sea Strike is outfitted with top-of-the-line Penn International
Two-Speed reels and other premium equipment. Penn's exclusive two-speed
system is virtually required equipment among billfish tournament competitors
and avid tuna fishermen around the world. The push of a button switches
between fast retrieve for gathering line quickly, or down-shifting to
put pressure on the largest tuna, billfish and shark.
