Reel Deep Sportfishing offers rod & reel and spearfishing charters out of Harbor Island, San Diego, California, created in 2021 by Sébastien Habert, who traded his office chair for a spot on the tuna tower of his own boat to pursue his passion for fishing. Outstanding Captain Matty leads every trip, promising a memorable adventure across San Diego’s rich inshore and offshore fisheries.
Trips run aboard the “Reel Deep,” a Contender 32ST — an American-made boat manufacturer that has won more fishing tournaments than any other brand — offering a fast, dry ride, amazing deck space, and over 400 miles of range for the longest offshore trips. Offshore Full Day trips target Trophy Bluefin Tuna, with Private Fishing Charters and a Private San Diego Bay Tour also available.
The business holds a genuine world record credential: on August 21, 2022, Captain Matty, his wife Tracy, and cameraman Derik went 100 miles offshore so Tracy could earn the Female World Record for Bluefin Tuna Spearfishing with an official weight of 196.2 lbs.
Trips are conducted in English, with French available upon request and Spanish accommodated when possible.
