    Limited Out!

    12 Hour Trip – Offshore on July 20, 2026 • 6 adults

    Best fishing experience of our lives. We did a 12 hour offshore trip (6 of us) and it was like a highlight reel you would see on YouTube. Tons of action, Brian and Nick put us right on the fish and we started hammering them quickly. We caught Yellowfin, Yellowtail and Mahi on our trip. Even had one stolen by a Mako Shark that breached the surface and did a back flip with our tuna in its jaws! Amazing! Brian and Nick pushed us to our full potential, even when we were getting worn out from big yellowfin they pushed us to fish harder and better and it paid off, everyone did a great job! Fillet process was great too, thanks Nick for sending us home with enough fish fillets for the rest of the year! Haha

    Unforgettable 13th Birthday Trip – Non-Stop Action & Amazing Crew!

    5 Hour Inshore Trip on July 25, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

    We booked this trip to celebrate our son's 13th birthday with a couple of his best buds, and Brian and Nick completely delivered! From start to finish, there wasn't a dull moment. They put us right in the middle of the action, and the kids had an absolute blast pulling in tons of bonito and two massive 20+ pound yellowtails. On the ride back, Nick filleted all of our catch, making for an incredible dinner feast when we got home. Our son said it was his best birthday ever! A huge thanks to Brian and Nick for making this trip so special for the boys. We'll definitely be back!

    Awesome trip!!!

    5 Hour Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on May 29, 2026 • 4 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!!

    Kinda Disappointed

    5 Hour Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on June 3, 2026 • 4 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!!

    Crew was great

    8 Hour Inshore Trip on May 23, 2026 • 5 adults

    They were very knowledgeable and helpful. It was a great experience and we caught a bunch of fish. If you want to do everything yourself they let you but if you want to just relax they will take care of everything for you. Great for all levels of fisherman.

    5 hour inshore. Hit our limits!

    5 Hour Inshore Trip on May 8, 2026 • 3 adults

    Went on the 5 hour inshore with Gavin and Joshua. Both were very positive, knowledgeable, and efficient. They kept us on fish the entire time and we hit our limits on rockfish. I would highly recommend them and this charter and will be booking again in the future.

Awesome time!
3 Hour Trip - 3:00 PM on September 26, 2026 • 2 adults

Great experience! Trolling was not working so they moved to deeper water and we fished off the bottom. Caught plenty of fish, enough that both my arms and my daughter’s arms were tired. Boat, captain and first mate were wonderful. Look forward to our next chance to do it again!

Reported catch:
Rockfish
Sand Bass

Great family trip
8 Hour Inshore Trip on September 26, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

Captain Brian and Mate Josh worked hard all day to keep 5 adults and my 12 year old grandson fishing. The boat was extremely well equipped with all the rods necessary and as soon as a fish was landed we were dropping another line. Beautiful day on the water. Thanks
