Nautilus Excursions is located in Pittsburg and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Ron will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 5 to 10-hour trips, mainly fishing for Bass, and Sturgeon, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, and jigging.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 30' Island Hopper boat that can safely take up to 8 anglers. This boat comes with a toilet.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip.

Fishing has always been Capt. Ron's passion. He started Trout fishing at 2 years old and charter boat fishing at 5 years old. He worked on charter boats for 18 years before becoming a captain. He has sportfished and commercially fished all his adult life. Capt. Ron enjoys seeing the thrill of a new person catching their first fish and anglers catching their personal best. His favorite species of fish to catch is Striped Bass. The captain fishes for it year-round.
