Night Runner Sport Fishing is located in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island. Fishing in Kona is a wonderful way to spend the day and see the Island from a different angle. Kona is the big game fishing Capitol of the World, and with beautiful calm waters here, anyone can enjoy a Kona deep sea fishing experience. Giant Blue Marlin can be caught all year round as well as Mahi Mahi, Yellow Fin Tuna, Wahoo, and numerous other species.
We also do bottom fishing for Giant Trevally, Amberjack, Snapper, Shark, and a wide variety of other creatures of the deep. We offer so many options there's little excuse for not catching fish. We offer overnight fishing charters and custom combo trips if the gang feels like breaking up the day with a bit of snorkeling on some of Kona's perfect reefs.
We own and operate this Kona fishing charter vessel, so rest assured that you will get the attention you deserve as my reputation is always on the line. We take great pride in running a clean comfortable operation. Kids are very welcome onboard and we love to see the excitement of youngsters pulling on the fish of their dreams.

Have a wonderful vacation!
2: We are Kona's premiere and original light tackle, live bait specialist's. Our most common request from guests would be to spend the day catching more than one fish and hopefully an edible one. Although we are no strangers to chasing big marlin, we have built our program around targeting mahi mahi, tunas, wahoos, and bottom fishes. So if your idea of fishing isn't chasing around one trophy bite then we've got you covered.
3:We are family friendly Kona fishing charter company. Kids are very much welcome and encouraged to jump aboard my fishing vessel. I was born to fish and have been since I was just out of diapers. I personally love to see kids get hooked on going fishing. Getting together on the water as a family is some of my best memories and I hope to make some of those memories for your family too.
4: The Night Runner is a beautiful 38' custom built Kona sport fishing boat, that was rebuilt from the ground up in 2024. Brand new motors and electrical system. She is clean, fast, comfortable, and very well maintained. We are 100% safe and coast guard licensed. I use only the best tackle and keep all my rods and reels in perfect working order. If I am not fishing, I am doing daily maintenance and cleaning to ensure that every day on the water is the best it can be.
5: We are happy to share your catch with you. (with the exception of large tuna) In Hawaii it is a common practice for the boat to keep and sell the catch of the day. I would be more than happy to filet some fish for you to enjoy while you are here. Rest assured you are the first priority.
