San Diego Charters is operated by Captain Kevin, who has been fishing these waters for years and knows every spot where the fish like to hide. He will take you fishing in his boat Lady Grace, which is just made for the always eventful San Diego Bay or the beautiful California coastline.

Lady Grace is a 36 foot Grand Banks trawler boat, which was originally built in 1966 and restored in 2016. It is powered by two 120 HP naturally aspirated diesel engines with a comfortable cruising speed of 9 knots. The boat has a capacity for 6 guests and is wide and spacious enough for everyone to enjoy. It is equipped with a GPS, a fishfinder, a radar and a VHF radio, as well as all the necessary safety equipment.

The boat has a flybridge, a shower and a toilet, a bed, a kitchen with a refrigerator and a multimedia system all for your enjoyment. You will also find an icebox aboard, which will preserve the freshness of your catch.

San Diego Charters operates in the inshore waters of San Diego Bay and the offshore waters, too. You will be targeting species such as White Seabass, Black Drum, Halibut, Blue Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Yellowtail Amberjack, Bluefin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna and other species available in these rich waters.

Captain Kevin will provide you with rods, reels, tackle, live and artificial baits, and cleaning and filleting service of your catch at the end of the trip. You will also have drinks and snacks served on the boat.

What a blast for our family--and great fishing too!
4 Hour Trip - Family Fishing (AM) on June 6, 20256 adults
We took our son's family (including two grandchildren, age 7 and 4) with Captain Kevin and a crew member on a wonderfully memorable four-hour fishing trip in San Diego Bay. Kevin was terrific with all of us, especially the kids, and the boat was very spacious and comfortable. After seeing the seals (including an adorable baby pup), the bird life, and all the fascinating naval traffic in the bay, the fishing was icing on the cake. My grandson reeled in eight fish (yahoo!) and the kids had a blast tossing the leftover sardines to the gulls on our way back to the dock. We came away with many memories that we will cherish for many years to come. We highly recommend this experience!

I Booked a trip with my family and we had an really fun time. My kids 4-8-9 had a great time and Captain Kevin made everyone feel welcomed and safe. He took the time to teach everyone the boat and the basics of fishing. He showed his knowledge of the area and fishing experiences. Look forward to the next trip I take from San Diego, I will be contacting Kevin.

Great Day on the Bay
4 Hour Trip - Family Fishing (PM) on August 2, 20254 adults
Our group came down for a family event and booked a trip last minute for the six of us. Most of the group was new or had not done much ocean fishing. Captain and deckhand were great, very patient and accommodating with the less experienced anglers. We all enjoyed catching some fish and having a great time on the Bay. Great boat and crew to spend time on the water with your family.

My family said they had a wonderful time. My son said “those guys were good dudes”… My daughter-in-law said the Captain and First Mate were so good, first rate! All my family had a great time. They are experienced at fishing but not bored with this event. Your entire operation was excellent. Tiffany was so helpful with scheduling. Would highly recommend.
