A First Class Fishing Experience
Full Day Trip – Ocean on July 4, 20264 adults

John is the captain you want for any fishing trip! He put us right on the fish, and we quickly limited out on rockfish with an incredible variety of species. What really set this trip apart was that he didn't stop there. While most captains might not combine rockfish and salmon on the same trip, John made it happen. He also took us to target lingcod, and we came incredibly close to landing three of them before finishing the day catching salmon. It was an action-packed day with nonstop opportunities. As an added bonus, we even got to watch whales during the trip, making an already amazing day on the water even more memorable. A big shoutout to the first mate, Travis, who was absolutely top-notch. He was constantly helping everyone, keeping lines in the water, sharing tips, and making sure the whole group had a great experience. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. Between John's knowledge and determination to put us on fish, Travis's hard work, and the unforgettable day we had, this was easily one of the best fishing charters I've been on. If you're looking for a captain who goes the extra mile and delivers an incredible experience, book with John. Wish we could come back sooner!

Captin john and his deckhand where amazinf to spend nearly 11 hours on a boat out of the water with. One of us was seasick and the other got too drunk but captin john kept the entire trip incredibly fun and crazy productive, we caught a 25lbs flounder and an absolute metric ton of fish!!! I would absolutely recommend addictive spoet fishing to anyone looking for a fun and very good fishing experience with people who really know what they are doing!

Don't hesitate to book this boat
Half Day Trip – Bay on December 15, 20255 adults

One of the best boats I've booked in the bay area. Knowledgeable, safe, entertaining, and accommodating to your fishing needs. Captain John's experience is evident in his preparation, explanation, and guidance. We all had multiple opportunities to bring in fish from the minute we dropped anchor. I would encourage any family with kids or less experienced anglers to book from a guide like him for a more memorable trip. Thanks again to Capt John and Willy, we will definitely be in touch in the future.

Great trip
Full Day Bay Trip on August 17, 20253 adults

This was my second trip with Captain John and it was again a great trip. I booked this trip for my son that wanted to catch shark. Captain John took us out and within a couple of minutes of getting out to our first stop, my son was reeling in his first leopard shark. We ended up catch a ton of 7 gill sharks, a couple of leopard sharks, and a couple of sand sharks. It was a great experience and I look forward to going back out with Captain John.

Once in a lifetime catch!
Full Day Trip – Ocean on November 22, 20256 adults

Did you know we have 200lb sturgeon in the SF Delta? Yeah, me neither. That was until I booked a charter with Capt. John and Addictive Sports Fishing. He got us on the fish and gave us a once in a lifetime experience…catching a 200lb Sturgeon! Great boat, quality gear, and Capt. John know where the fish are. What more can you ask! will definitely book another trip with these guys. Amazing time and value!
