Make the most of your time in San Diego and go fishing with Fish Further Charters.

There's no guarantee when you're fishing, but just some of the species you can catch around here include Skipjack, Calico Bass, California Sheephead, Lingcod, Striped Marlin, Rockfish, White Seabass, Yellowtail Amberjack, Bluefin Tuna, Swordfish, and more, depending on when you go.

On the day of your trip you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Dan can also help you try kite fishing.

Families making of a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Your excursion begins aboard a 28' Sportfishing with room for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you may need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Don't leave home without sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks provided on board.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Fish Further Charters!

Got us on fish right away
4 Hour Trip – Inshore on May 23, 20262 adults

Capt. Dan was great. knowledgeable, experienced and personable. We have fished all over the world and this half day outing ranked right up there. We were fishing for taco meat and Dan had us catching Rock Fish within Minutes and moved us around to keep us on fish the entire trip. We caught four different species of Rock Fish, Dan filet them all up for us and we get to fly back to Montana with a cooler full of fish. Just a great morning.

Captain Dan was a great fishing guide! He led us to some great catches. His boat was clean and just the right size for four people to slay fish!

4 Hour Trip – Inshore on June 22, 20243 adults

We booked for a half day bay trip, we had a group of 4, with 2 of those four having never ocean fished before. We were catching fish on their well maintained boat from the first stop. Captain Dan was patient and helpful. Don’t think my daughter had to touch bait or the catch as Dan was right there to help. Next time if she wants to go she’s baiting her own hook at least. I think we had about 20 fish for our short trip out. Would definitely recommend and use again, both of the first timers and myself had a great time catching fish with Fish Further charters.
