Deep Sea is a professional owner-operated boat. We care about great catches and safe and memorable experiences. We cater our charters to our customers. Our expertise is finding open ocean pelagic species. No experience is necessary to have a great time. As your captain, I have a lifetime of ocean experience. I started working on charter boats for tips at nine years old. I have over two decades of experience fishing out of Haleiwa. I learned the do's and don'ts of charter fishing from some of the original Haleiwa charter boat captains. Rough seas happen but for the Deep Sea, they aren't a problem.

    what an experience

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Capt. Matt shared his broad knowledge of the water, the pelagics and had us on fish in no time. Matts deck hand Ashton, was the hardest working young man and was super accommodating to my wife and I during our awesome trip. would definitely fish with those 2 again.

    Reported catch:
    Yellowfin Tuna
    Skipjack Tuna

    capt. Matt and deckmate Ashton were top notch. We caught Shibi and Ocu tuna. I would definitely recommend booking them any chance you get!

    Awesome trip

    Full Day Trip • 4 adults

    Matt and Ashton were awesome. They knew where to find the fish. If you are looking for a super fancy boat with koa wood and a place to rest, this boat is not for you. If you want to catch fish and have a great day, this boat is for you!! Very generous with the amountof fish that they gave us afterwards. highly recommend fishing with them.

    Reported catch:
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
    Skipjack Tuna

What's biting with Deep Sea Sportfishing Hawaii in Haleiwa

This time of year is one of the last chances to catch some Trevally (Papio and Ulua). Apart from fishing, this is a great opportunity to take part in The Aloha Festival, a celebration that showcases Hawaii's unique traditions.
