Renegade Fishing Charters

Renegade Fishing Charters (specifically Renegade Offshore Fishing) is a top-tier choice operating out of Islamorada, just a short drive from Key Largo. Since you are looking at a full-day trip on May 26th, this boat is well-equipped for the “Offshore” targets like Mahi Mahi and the “Reef” targets like the Snapper/Grouper we discussed.

The Boat & Experience

• Vessel: A 34′ Hatteras Sportfisherman. It is a “big boat” experience, offering a stable ride, a flybridge for spotting fish, and—importantly for full-day trips—a private, working indoor restroom (head).

   

• What’s Included: All rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and fishing licenses are provided.

   

• Catch Cleaning: The crew will filet and bag your fish for you at the end of the day. You can take your catch to many nearby “Cook Your Catch” restaurants (like Whale Harbor or Lazy Days).

Estimated 2026 Trip Pricing

• Half Day (4 Hours): ~$1,100

Note on Gratuity: It is standard practice in the Keys to tip the First Mate 20% of the charter cost. They work the hardest to ensure your lines are ready and your fish are cleaned!
