perfect way to spend the day
4 hour Local trip on March 11, 20263 adults

The perfect way to spend the day if you’re interested in fishing in SoCal. Capt. Hunter and his deckhand Quinton were awesome, they were super accomodating and made sure we got fish. We will definitely be using their services again to try fishing for other species when they’re in season. we caught a good variety today, did a bit of reef fishing and tried to go for halibut. overall it was an excellent experience. would highly recommend.

Great Birthday Trip!
3 hour local trip on April 5, 20264 adults

We celebrated my son’s birthday on a fishing trip and had an amazing time. We caught four fish and even hooked a shark, which we safely released. The boat was clean and the ride was smooth. Overall, a great experience and perfect way to celebrate.

Great day for fishing!
3 hour on August 26, 20232 adults

We went out on a three hour afternoon fishing trip. Captain Hunter and his pops brought us to one spot and kept us on the Bass all afternoon. We almost hit our limit of Calico Bass as you can see. This was mine and my nephews first time fishing in the ocean and I honestly could not have imagined the turn out to be nearly as amazing as it was. The captain was so nice and helpful and they were so knowledgeable and helpful with the kids! The boat was clean and just beautiful. Overall it was 10/10 one of the best and most fun experiences we’ve ever had and we will 100% be going again in the future! I cannot Thank you guys enough for giving us such a perfect day!

Captain Hunter Barrett grew up in Huntington Beach and has always been around and loved the ocean. He started surfing when he was 6 years old and found his passion for fishing at 8 when he caught his first Mackerel. After that, his dad would take him out all the time, burning out with how often his son wanted to go fishing. When the captain was 18, he started to work on a 6-pack charter boat called 'Options.' He worked as the second captain for 4 years and learned from one of the best White Seabass fishermen on the coast. Enjoy your trip to Long Beach by stepping out with a true professional aboard HB Sportfishing!
