Deep Sea Sportfishing runs a five-boat charter fleet out of Westport, Washington, located across from Float 6, offering bottom fishing, halibut, salmon, combo, and albacore tuna trips on the Pacific Ocean. The fleet includes the Blitz, a 53-foot Coast Guard inspected boat built by Little Hoquiam Shipyard and restored to original condition in 2024; the Ultimate, a 48-foot, 14-person vessel captained by Phil, who along with his deckhand brings well over 40 years of combined sportfishing experience; the Comeback, a 36-foot fiberglass Uniflite sport fisher powered by twin Detroit diesel engines; the Sundance, a 43-foot, 6-person walk-around boat with twin John Deere engines and a newly renovated cabin; and the El Matador, a 65-foot Coast Guard inspected vessel equipped to fish up to 22 people, with limited-load options also available.

Bottom fishing trips run March 14 through October 17, targeting rockfish in the 2 to 7 pound range and lingcod from 5 to 35 pounds, with a bag limit of seven rockfish and two lingcod. Trips depart between 5:30 and 6:00 AM depending on the boat and typically run eight hours round trip. Halibut trips combine with deep water bottom fishing, while dedicated combo trips pair salmon and rockfish fishing into a single outing. Albacore tuna season begins in August, giving anglers a shot at the hard-fighting offshore fish once the summer season progresses.

Pricing for bottom fishing runs $253 per person on the big boats or $285 per person on the 6-man boats. Deep Sea Sportfishing works within the Charter Boat Association’s fleet, so if weather or mechanical issues force a trip cancellation, the business tries to get guests rebooked on another boat within the association when possible, with a full refund otherwise.

For anglers looking to fish rockfish, lingcod, halibut, salmon, or tuna off the Washington coast with a choice of five different charter boats, Deep Sea Sportfishing offers a well-equipped, multi-vessel fishing operation out of Westport.
