Full Day Trip–Catalina Island

Three generations fishing

VERIFIED

My 93-year-old father wanted to go fishing so I needed a boat that would allow a chair, or even a wheelchair, for him to use all day. This boat has plenty of room for my son and I to fish and the chair was never in our way. Mark and Chris took good care of us, especially dad, They would throw out a line and hook a fish, then tell my dad here let's trade poles. Heck, my dad had two on the boat before I got my first bite. My dad told me on the way home that he'd like to go out again. Another highlight was my son got his first Yellowtail, about a 15 pounder, and ate the heart. Weather was great, seas perfect, you just can't go wrong fishing. The cost of our full day trip (12 hours) was fair and well worth it for the memories we made.

We want to thank captain herman and Anthony for doing a Catalina trip with us. They made sure we were always catching fish whenever we went to. We did the 3/4 day trip but because we caught so much fish, they were kind enough to let us do a full day trip and we paid the extra cost. Amazing trip! Everyone had fun and everyone caught fish. We also saw many tuna schools around Catalina island on the way back!!! We want to book again and if you choose this trip you will not regret it. Amazing team. 5/5 stars.
