There’s no better way to experience the waters of Roatan than heading offshore with local captain Artley Gentle, a lifelong island fisherman who has spent more than 30 years navigating these Caribbean waters.
Just minutes from West End, your Roatan deep sea fishing charter heads out beyond the reef where the deep blue drops off quickly — one of the reasons Roatan is known for excellent offshore fishing. Lines go in almost immediately, with up to six trolling rods running a mix of artificial lures and live bait to attract fast-moving pelagic fish.
Your private fishing charter includes everything you need for a great day on the water:
All fishing gear and bait
Up to 4 guests per trip
Water, local beer, and fresh fruit
Cleaning and filleting of your catch at the dock
If you’re lucky enough to land a tuna or barracuda, many local restaurants will even cook your catch for dinner.
Fishing with Captain Artley isn’t just about catching fish — it’s about experiencing Roatan through the eyes of someone who grew up on these waters.
Guests often mention how much they enjoy hearing stories about island life while trolling the coastline and watching the mountains of Roatan rise from the sea.
Whether you’re an experienced angler or trying deep sea fishing for the first time, the trip is relaxed, fun, and hands-on.
Depending on the season and conditions, anglers regularly hook into species like:
Blackfin tuna
Barracuda
Wahoo
Other Caribbean game fish
Many guests are surprised how quickly the action starts — often within the first mile offshore.
Your Roatan deep sea fishing adventure will begin approximately one mile off shore with six trolling lines used with a combination of artificial and live bait. We are happy to mix trolling with drop line fishing to give you the best chance to hook that big catch.
