Kraken Sportfishing is ready to show you what these plentiful waters have to offer! Departing out of Mission Bay San Diego, you'll be in a prime position to explore everything from fish-filled kelp beds to offshore hotspots. Your guide is lifelong angler Captain Leng Bai, who has plenty of tips and tricks up his sleeve.

Captain Leng runs an impressive variety of shared and private charters, which are all customizable. No matter your skill level, you'll find something to suit you perfectly. Newer anglers or families can opt for exciting, budget-friendly shorter trips to nearshore waters, where Halibut, Calico Bass, and Rockfish can be found. More experience under your belt? Head out for a full day and battle oversized Tuna!

You'll be fishing from the 'Kraken,' a 2004 Grady White Islander. She measures a spacious 29ft with room for up to 6 guests, and is powered by twin Yamaha 4-stroke 150 HP outboard engines. Capt. Leng has had the boat outfitted for all types of fishing, and you'll find top-quality navigational electronics on board to guide you to the hotspots.

Using a mix of these methods, he'll have you targeting a wide range of species, including Tuna species, Mahi Mahi, Yellowtail, Halibut, Sea Bass, Lingcod, Sheephead, and Rockfish.

If you'd like to spearfish, you must have some experience and bring your own gear along. prefer to try a more conventional technique? Your captain has mounted grand-slam outriggers for trolling, as well as Penn, Phoenix, and Calstar rods paired with Penn, Daiwa, Okuma, and Accurate reels.

Your trip includes all necessary bait and tackle needed . Snacks & drinks are also provided free of charge. A customary 20-30% gratuity is not included in the price but very much appreciated.

Captain Leng is the MAN !
3 Hour Trip – Bay (PM) on March 16, 20264 adults

Captain Leng took me and my 3 buddies out fishing, and it was an experience we will never forget ! We went out boys and came back men. We had zero experience, but Captain Leng walked us through everything and taught us with kindness and patience. He was so generous and nice. We caught fish, and when we came back he even gave us a couple lobster. Truly an amazing captain and person, had an incredible time highly recommend !

Captain is great
3 Hour Trip – Bay (PM) on February 13, 20263 adults

Our trip was cut a bit short due to me getting sea sick but the Captain did everything he could to try to make the expierence as enjoyable as possible, he was very knowledgeble, explained and demostrated how to use the equipment. We ended up catching four fishes and could have been more if it wasn’t because us feeling sick. I would defenitly reccomend choosing Karken Marine Sports Fishing for your upcoming fishing trip!
