Full day with captain Floyd!
Full Day Trip – Sturgeon on April 11, 2021

My son and I have been out on a number of charters. This was the first time EVER on a 6 pack charter. Honestly I can’t even put into words how much difference there is. First of all captain Floyd and his deck hand Randy are first class. From the moment we arrived at the boat, the feeling was more like going out on a friends boat. Professionalism at its best, awesome boat with fantastic gear. What ever kind of fishing you want to do, if it’s in season captain Floyd and the fish invader should be your first pick it’s mine! Very comfortable and content. Absolutely worth every penny. As long as my son and I are in Northern California Fish Invader is the only boat we will be on. Can’t wait until our next outing. Thank you for an amazing day Floyd and Randy, you guys rock!

Full Day Fishing for Lingcod/ Rockfish
Full Day Trip – Sturgeon on April 3, 2021

I had the opportunity on April 3rd to head out to the Farallon Islands on the newest addition to the six pack fleet in Berkeley. Fish Invader Sportfishing offers one the opportunity to be fishing in an hour after leaving the dock. No other boat in the fleet can offer you this. The twin 250's got us there in a flash. I have been used to a trip taking three hours each way to the Islands which was just way to much travel time for me. The fishing was lights out with huge rockfish and limits of ling cod. A month prior I caught a 56" sturgeon with Captain Floyd as well. This Boat and Captain do everything they can to put you on the fish and the Fish Invader is a beautiful new boat with as working private bathroom! Definitely two thumbs up.

Full day salmon trip with Captain Floyd on the Fish Invader
Halibut Trip on July 31, 20213 adults1 child

This was a great day on the water. The Captain and crew are top notch and make you feel comfortable from the moment you step on the boat. They do everything possible to not only make sure you catch fish but also enjoy your trip. My son was sea sick for the better part of the day but started feeling better in the afternoon and the Captain stayed out late to make sure he got his first salmon ever! Thank you Captain Floyd, Stephanie, and Kenny for an experience me and my kids will remember for ever! We will be back for another trip.

Day trip with capt. Mike on fish invader
Full Day Trip – Sturgeon on April 1, 2021

Myself and a couple of buddies went out on the charter with Captain Floyd and his deckhand Randy and we absolutely killed it rockfish and lingcod. I usually don’t leave reviews But these guys well deserve it my buddies had never been out on a charter and they had the time of their lives and are hooked. The boat is very clean and well-maintained with lots of deck room. The captain is very upbeat and positive and knowledgeable about where he chooses to fish. The deckhand is very helpful and knowledgeable as well with a positive Attitude.
