Waikiki Sportfishing operates out of Honolulu, on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu, targeting the epic pelagic predators which abound in the deep Pacific waters offshore. Target Marlin, Ono (Wahoo), Ahi (Yellowfin Tuna), and many more awesome deep sea species.

You will be fishing aboard the 'Renagade', a 38' Hatteras sportfishing boat which was completely overhauled in 2024. The vessel now comes loaded with top-of-the-line equipment to give the best chance in your bluewater battles. She also has plenty of luxuries to make your day even more special.

The vessel is equipped with GPS and fishfinder, to get you on the best fishing spots. Once in place, her outriggers will allow you to target even fast-moving fish like Wahoo and Marlin. Live bait well and a fighting chair will let you work your way up the food chain, and hold your own once you reach the top.

The 'Renagade' isn't just some stripped out fishing machine, though. She also has a spacious, interior with a full head and a comfortable salon for resting in the cool between bites. Up on deck, her large flybridge will let you relax in style as you take in the islands stunning views on your way to and from the fishing grounds.

You will be focusing mainly on trolling when it comes to the big fish offshore, but you can also bottom fish for bait and food fish on our exclusive charters. All trips come with tackle and lures.

    great captain on a comfortable boat

    Full Day Trip – Shared on April 7, 2026 • 1 adult

    1st class operation with a fun and experienced crew. Boat is a classic wide body, very stable, and has sofas to relax on or nap during the day. Captain is very knowledgeable about local conditions and hotspots. We caught Wahoo and a great short-billed spearfish. Raised marlin and Mahi. Captain willing to cater to the fishing you desire. We stayed in the Ono lanes for a couple of hours, then ran out for pelagics for the rest of the trip. Fishing was slow but steady, and our hand kept the spread well tended and running true. I would absolutely fish this skipper again. Great boat for kids and families or experienced big game fishermen. Thanks Skipper!

    Amazing trip and Amazing crew!

    Full Day Trip – Shared on July 15, 2026 • 2 adults

    Booked the trip just wanting to go out and enjoy a boat ride and hopefully land some fish. It was a slow but the Captain Dante and Mate Sam found the birds and if you find birds then you find the fish. After a couple of passes in and out the mate changed up some lures and then the magic happend. One nice ono (Wahoo) for the first fish and then the second hit like a ton of bricks. Some massive jumps and a 15 minute fight we landed a 7’4”, 184 pound pacific blue marlin. It was a pitcure perfect fight.

    Yellow fin tuna for the win!!!

    Half Day Trip – Shared on July 27, 2026 • 2 adults

    The Captain, deck hand Dennis were great. Captain is funny as hell. What else can I say. My 14 yr old son caught a yellow fin tuna and glowed the rest of the day. This is why I came along. I wanted to experience my son catching his dream. And with a great group of people too.

    April Trolling Trip

    Full Day Trip – Shared on April 17, 2026 • 2 adults

    Our fishing trip was great! We were able to get one Mahi to hook on. Crew was nice and very knowledgeable, boat was clean and comfy. The Renegade could use new hot seat but that would be the only change I would make!

    Great overall trip

    Half Day Trip – Shared on December 20, 2025 • 2 adults

    The bite had been hit and miss due to weather, but captain and crew worked hard to put us on fish. The crew was friendly and accommodating. The boat is not fancy but functional. Would fish this boat with this crew again anytime.
