Fishing Charters Of San Diego offers anything from mild to wild! Spend a perfect family-friendly day out on the water or head out offshore for the adrenaline-high trip. Join the locally owned and operated crew that spent decades fishing the waters of Southern California! With years of professional experience, they can easily accommodate anyone, from a beginner level to a big game angler looking for his new record.

The adventure starts on a 36’ Hatteras boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. Bring your loved ones and share the fun. Even if someone from your group isn’t enthusiastic about fishing, they can enjoy their time on the boat. With an enclosed cabin, bunks, a comfortable couch, private bathroom, and a galley with refrigerator, this boat has all the comfort of a home. They can also enjoy the view from the flybridge.

Choose whether you want to stay closer to the shore and explore calm waters or head out to the depths, where the real predators live. Inshore and nearshore trips can get you White Seabass, Yellowtail, Barracuda, Bass, Rockfish, Halibut, Shark and a variety of other species. Offshore tours can take you after Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Yellowtail and more.

Each trip can be customized, so choose your target and fishing technique. The captain will do his best to meet your expectation.

All fishing equipment, bottled water, and some light snacks are included in the price. Make sure to purchase your fishing license and pack some sun protection.

Awesome trip!!!
5 Hour Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on May 29, 20264 adults

Captain Gavin and Nick were great. Easy to understand instructions and very friendly, even for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers. We had a great time for our first time fishing like this. We caught many rockfish, some barracuda, and a calico bass. If we come back to San Diego, we woud definitely book this trip again (and maybe longer than 5 hours). We saw sea lions and a few dolphins. Awesome trip!! Thanks guys!!

Reported catch:
Pacific Barracuda
Rockfish
Calico Bass

We are happy you enjoyed the trip! Thank you for choosing to fish with us!

Kinda Disappointed
5 Hour Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on June 3, 20264 adults

Overall, our trip was fun, but it started off completely wrong. I booked with Captain Brian and his boat the Apex, but instead Captain Galvin showed up with a boat 3 or 4 feet smaller than what I anticipated. I purposefully chose the larger boat (and paid extra for it) because my spouse gets seasick. Needless to say, my spouse was sick the entire time. Not only that, Captain Galvin is a smoker, so we had to endure smelling his cigarette smoke (which we despise) the entire duration. Nonetheless, his mate was great with us novice fisherwomen - although he did snap at my friend and me for “doing it wrong” a couple of times. But, like I said, we did have a good time. I just wish we would’ve gotten Captain Brian because he’s the one I chose after reading all the wonderful reviews about him. Oh, and trust me, deepsea fishing is not for the weak! It was workout reeling those fish in!!

Reported catch:
White Seabass
Rockfish
Response from Captain

Im happy you had fun and caught a bunch of fish. You were upgraded to the nicer boat(albeit 2’ smaller) due to maintenance requirements. Otherwise we would have had to cancel. The prices on the boat you went on are the same or higher. If you paid extra for anything( or have(had) other concerns) please contact me directly at the number i was communicating with you at.
