Ez Sportfishing 

We left Huntington Bch Harbor and had fairly choppy seas in the Catalina Channel. All the LA charter boats seem to know where the fish are because a small fleet of private and charter fishing boats went from spot to spot. We ended up going north towards Long Beach. The fishing in the first spot was pretty good. We were hooking Calico Bass and Barracuda right away using live bait and jig lures. I hooked a monster yellowtail and got it to within about 20 feet off the boat and then it broke off taking the bait and hook with it. The 2nd spot was dead. Then we moved a little north to the 3rd spot and the fishing was intense and almost non-stop. With the Jig & bait caster rig we were hooking big Pacific Barracuda on every cast. The crew staring get in on it and between the 4 of us, I figure we caught over 50 barracuda in an hour. It would have more, but it takes time to fight the fish, reel it in, and decide whether it is a keeper or not. It was lots of gaffing and measuring. In the middle of all that we were using live bait with spinning rigs and catching more barracuda and calico bass. The only hard part was dealing with the increasing swells. It's hard doing that while that little boat is rocking 20 or 30 degrees. I highly recommend Captain Eric and EZ Sportfishing. He'll get you on the fish. He has a lot of experience in these waters, and he was on the radio with a buddy who was also a fishing charter captain. They were sharing information and it proved to be invaluable in terms of finding the fish. My buddy and I were a little bummed at not getting a Yellowtail, but that is the luck of the draw. Nearby boats were getting 2 or 3 of them.

Marlin did not cooperate, so Eric and Ethan put us on some calicos at Catalina on the way back in and the boys slayed 'em. Highly recommend EZ Sportfishing! They definitely knew the play that day, which was blue marlin, and we had 2 short bites and 1 pretty good strike but didn't get any hooked up tight. I am 100% confident in Eric, the universe alone is to blame! Will definitely book with EZ again next time we are in Huntington.

Captain and Crew member were very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful! Would highly recommend them! Trip of a lifetime!

Eric and Ryan made it an awesome experience for my kids and I. They got us on fish right out of the gates, and we limited out on a few species. They were both friendly and easy to talk with. Good dudes, highly recommend.

My buddies and I were looking to get into saltwater fishing and none of us have had much experience in doing so. We're lucky to have found Captain Eric and First Mate Ethan as they were absolute pros in guiding us to having the best experience possible. We had one goal in mind and that was to catch as much fish as possible and Captain Eric lead us to a spot that had constant action. They were there to teach and support us through every step of the way and before we knew it our 5 hour trip was already coming to an end. Highly recommend for anyone out there looking to have a fun time and will be definitely looking to book again soon!

Captain and Ethan practically served up the best fishing trip I have had in a long time. I came in from the desert of Vegas to beat the heat and treat my work team and my daughter to an adventure deep sea fishing. This was a first for all of them as not one has been deep sea fishing and some never on a boat. Captain took us to where they had seen them the day before and we nailed one right off the bat. Then it went dead for approximately an hr. He redirected us roughly an hr south to find blue fin smorgasbord. 6 in total last one 70-80 lbs. My team has been talking about it all morning, fantastic trip thanks to our captain and first mate Ethan. Will be back next year for sure!!

We had a great time with Eric and Ethan we caught fish constantly all day. We had great and interesting conversations about fishing and aquatic life. There was a blue shark swimming next to our boat and we were able to catch it. Eric and Ethan made us feel comfortable and at ease while catching this shark. They explained that this sharke was like a puppy dog of sharks. My daughter and son who are 5 and 6 were super stoked after this trip. They were able to reel in many fish. On our way back to the dock we were able to see some porpoises. we had such a good time and were able to get great photos and videos. We can't wait to come back!

We booked the shark special and Eric being the pro he is, suggested we keep an open mind to switch tactics in case the sharks were not around due to recent weather. Well we got a nice shark and then continued the rest of the trip to go get some nice halibut (and a few scorpion fish too which was cool and unique for a couple midwestern guys). All in all we had a blast and would (will) book with these guys again. They know the conditions and what/where to get fish. Be flexible and they will put you in position to catch some beautiful fish and give you a great memory to hold on to.

Eric and Randy were awesome! They picked us up right on time, took us out and as soon as we we anchored up we were catching fish! After limiting out, they were even nice enough to taxi us over to the marina on Catalina to have drinks with some friends of mine! Caught an uncountable amount of Bass, a few Bonita, and one Yellow tail that was a fight of a lifetime to witness. If you want to catch fish, learn a thing or two and have a great time, I highly recommend booking your charter with EZ Sportfishing.

We booked the full day to the Catalina island where we immediately located a school of hungry SeaBass. We were pulling them up within minutes (seconds even). The water is so blue you can see the schools below the boat. We hooked up a few barracuda and then the wife hooked onto the Yellowtail….right before the sea-lions got ahold it it. Damn dogs kept snatching our catches or bait. We did manage to land one beautiful yellowtail as seen in the pics. We can’t recommend Capt. Eric and Jason for their help, great convos and time spent on the water while visiting. I would def book again if I’m on the west coast again.
