We had a great time on our fishing trip! The 6 hour trip is a good amount of time on the water without feeling like it’s too much. Although the fish weren’t really biting (and we had to throw a lot of little ones back),  it was so much fun. Both Captain Mike and Sam were super friendly and helpful with the equipment, bait, and casting the lines out. My only critique would be to communicate location a little more with directions. We tried getting there earlier than our 6:30am departure, and we showed up/parked at the address given, but then had no idea where to go from there. It was a big area with 3 dock gates, and we had no clue what dock we were going to be on or that we should just wait at the gate until time. More people finally showed up and we established we were all waiting for the same charter, so it was fine. But I wish we had more direction so we weren’t panicking we were in the wrong spot and would miss the fishing trip. Overall though, we would definitely book again!

I had a great time! I am new to California fishing and Mike was happy to answer any questions I had. The water temperature was a little low for tuna and yellowtail but the rockfish bite was on! The boat has plenty of room inside and the top deck is great! The only downside would be the speed of a trawler but that is to be expected. I would definitely go again!

Went out for a 6-7 hour trip a few days before Thanksgiving. We departed promptly at 6AM and returned at 1:30PM. We caught an 8kg yellowtail and a 6kg skip jack. The day ended perfectly after the midday sun. The trip was not crowded, just 4 fishers and 1 spectator. Nice crew! Professional. We hope to return in the Spring for more fish and more San Diego.

Don’t fish very often but when we do get to San Diego we always book a trip with the Long Run It’s a great boat, great crew and we always have a wonderful time. The crew are very experienced and helps us whenever we need it.
Will be back again in the near future. Can’t wait.

A half-day in the bay was fine, we were hitting tons of fish, but look what happened when we decided to make it a full day and head for deeper waters. Captain Dyer and Deckhand Sam were a great crew. They had their favorite spots, but also had eagle eyes for patties and birds. A 20lb yellowfin and 65lb bluefin left us with more fish than we could have dreamed of. While the boat’s speed left a little to be desired, we enjoyed the leisurely ride in and out and even saw a couple large pods of dolphins.
