All the latest electronics to help safely navigate to the fishing grounds, and to help find fish. It’s also equipped with two livewells to hold plenty of live bait for any style of fishing.

All rods, reels, and tackle are included in the price. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. Your fish will be cleaned, or filleted upon request, at no extra charge.

Whether you want to go offshore in search of some Tuna or Dorado, cruise around the Coronados for some yellowtail or some amazing rockfish, or just a relaxing day at our local kelp beds or bay. The Slot Machine offers it all. Book your trip now and hit the water with SD Slot Machine Charter.

5 Hour Trip – nearshore on June 16, 2025

We had the best time. Captain Dan was nice, friendly and informative! I would recommend fishing with him. His experience and love of fishing is evident. I have taken MANY fishing trips. I have never caught so many fish! Best experience ever!

Fishing with Daniel

VERIFIED

5 Hour Trip – nearshore on February 22, 2025

Captain Dan was absolutely the best! He went out of his way to make sure everything on his ship was ready for myself and my three sons. I have a handicap vision problem and he made sure everything was absolutely right for me. He went out of his way to make sure everything was safe so we could have a great fishing day. I would highly recommend any fisherman to go with Captain Dan.

Great family friendly fishing

VERIFIED

5 Hour Trip – nearshore on January 10, 2025

My parents (in their early 70s) had a great time fishing on Friday **hidden content** hr near shore fishing). Captain Dan was attentive to my parents’ specific needs and safety. We caught a variety of different species, ranging from sheepshead, to whitefish, to a leopard shark. He is very accommodating and flexible, keeping us informed of the changing winter ocean conditions. We ended up pushing our reservation from Wed to Fri. We are already thinking about booking another family fishing trip with Captain Dan in late spring or early summer.

Great day on the water.

5 Hour Trip – nearshore on February 5, 2025

We had a great day on our charter. We caught about 25 fish between the 3 of us on our trip. The captain was a really nice guy and knew what he was doing out there. Was also cool to see whales and dolphins out there while we were fishing. Would definitely recommend a trip with Daniel to anyone looking to go fishing in San Diego.

5 Hour Trip – nearshore on October 8, 2024

Had a great time on the water with Daniel. He was obviously experienced, safe and worked hard to make sure our group had a good time. Weather was a bit unfortunate and had low visibility all day with heavy fog but he got us on fish and we pulled up 31 fish from the bottom during our morning session. We all had a great time including the kiddos. Definitely recommend him to others! Don’t do a big part boat, grab family or friends and take your small group out with Captain Daniel!
