The waters off the coast of California have plenty to offer to any angler: from bottom fishing hook ups to offshore extravaganza. Off The Grid will put you on the hottest bite on top of premier proven fish havens.
Captain William Ting invites you to join him for a fishing excursion on board his 28' Desina RIB. She's a patrol boat capable of holding 6 passengers with ease, without bumping elbows while fishing. However, it is highly recommended that we only have 4 people fishing to give you the best 'private boat experience'! She's equipped for both comfort and action – giving you the best shot at landing 'that one' fish.
The onboard live bait well ensures that your bait will be alive and ready for the bite! This boat is fast and will get you to the fishing grounds quickly to give you max time for fishing.
The charter will supply you with all the necessary fishing equipment for a wide range of fishing styles you can try. Light or heavy tackle, spinning or fly casting, bottom fishing, or using a kite – they have it covered. They can even take you spearfishing, though spearos should bring their own gear.
This plethora of fishing techniques matches the variety of fish species you can pick and choose from. Shorter trips will see you on top of rockfish, seabass, Calico Bass, barracuda, Bonito, and other species.
Kids of all ages are welcome on board, the captain will supply life jackets in all sizes. High-quality tackle by companies like Shimano, Daiwa, iRod, and others is supplied as well, though you can bring your lucky rod if you want to.
Explore California as you've never before.

Ian DavisRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNewraining cats dogs and fish
Half Day Trip (AM) on September 6, 2026 • 6 adultsdespite the rough weather captain Will managed to get us ontop of some fish within 15 minutes of leaving the harbor. i could not recommend a fishing charter more!
William KoontzRepeat angler5.0VerifiedEnjoyable trip. Our captain worked very hard to find fish.
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 2, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain very personable and knowledgeable. Works very hard to put you on the fish. The Boat offered 360° fishing capability, important for fighting big fish.
Sarah Mathias5.0VerifiedWe caught LOTS of fish
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 29, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 childWe wanted to go off shore, but had no luck. The captain recommended moving closer to in shore and then we couldn't stop catching bass, barracuda, and bonita.
Andrew Hill5.0VerifiedCaptain fantastic!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 14, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 childTravis was our captain today as Will who we had been out with before was under the weather and Travis was outstanding, got us on the fish every time, was engaging, knowledgeable and very patient especially with our 11 year old. We caught well over 50 fish with the 5 of us and other boats around us were not catching anything. We even got to cruise with a huge pod of dolphins between spots which was amazing to see. Thanks for a great day!
Chris Beck5.0VerifiedFishing trip with my sons
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 26, 2023 • 6 adults • 2 childrenTook my sons out for a 6 hour trip with Captain Will. Captain was very responsive all week and gave me updates on conditions. Although we didn’t catch a lot of fish Will made sure to do everything he could to find fish. Gave the boys a science lesson and explained to them the topography and conditions off the coast of Dana Point. We ended up seeing schools of dolphins and a sun fish on the surface. Will stopped the boat and hooked us up on the 300 lb. sun fish and let the boys take turns trying to reel it in. Overall a great day out on the water and most importantly my boys can’t wait to get back out there.
Heather Hyden5.0VerifiedGreat Captain
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 1, 2025 • 5 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Will was fun and personable and worked with our schedule. He was great with my two girls and got them both catching fish. He tried to get my boys a mako shark but they just weren’t biting today! Overall we had a blast!
Bryce DimicelliRepeat angler5.0VerifiedWe Had A Blast
Half Day Trip (AM) on September 21, 2024 • 5 adults • 1 childNon Stop Catching - Easily Brought in 70 Fish - So Thankful that we chose OTG for our fishing trip - the boat has tons of room for a group of 5 and the Captain was top notch on making sure we had our lines in the water and fish on the hooks - Caught so many fish we couldn’t even keep up with the photos. Most fish we’ve caught at one time. Great Experience. Hope to go back again another day.
Michael Mccallum5.0VerifiedGreat trip!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 20, 2024 • 6 adults • 1 childCaptain Will promised us enough fish for dinner and he delivered! Our day had plenty of fluctuation as the bite came and went, but any time spent waiting for a bite was filled with good conversation. Ages 4 to 70 found themselves at home on the boat and I recommend this crew to anyone.
Jereme Mckee5.0VerifiedHalf day with Captain William Ting
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 23, 2022 • 3 adultsWilliam was hands down the best fishing guide/captain we could of asked for! Put us right on the fish every time. Between the three of us we caught 32 fish on the half day excursion. He had everything ready to go, from the bait the tackle and the poles. He was right on time and very easy to communicate with on the directions and when too drop the poles in the water and when too move spots too keep us on the fish. Also he was a great guy. The banter between the captain and the crew was seamless. Would 100% recommend and can’t wait too go again!!!

despite the rough weather captain Will managed to get us ontop of some fish within 15 minutes of leaving the harbor. i could not recommend a fishing charter more!
We had a great time fishing with Travis. Before heading to the first spot, we stop by to see a whale and her calf. Then we tried our luck in a few spots. We only caught small fishes as this is a slow time of the year. We had fun however and Travis was super nice and knowledgeable (and patient with newbies like us)
Thank you for coming out with us! Travis enjoyed your company as well! Hope you come back in the warmer months when the fishing gets better!
Captain very personable and knowledgeable. Works very hard to put you on the fish. The Boat offered 360° fishing capability, important for fighting big fish.
We wanted to go off shore, but had no luck. The captain recommended moving closer to in shore and then we couldn't stop catching bass, barracuda, and bonita.
It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed the boat and talked a lot about fishing wit Capt. Will. Unfortunately the sharks were not responding to all the chum we put in the water. I would book another day with OTG Fishing and Capt Will.
