Fishing charters in Honolulu, Hawaii
Oahu's sportfishing fleet runs out of Kewalo Basin, minutes from Waikiki, and the island's steep leeward drop-offs put blue marlin water within a short run of the dock. This is one of the birthplaces of Pacific big-game fishing, with marlin, ahi, ono, and mahi mahi caught in every month of the year.
