Addictive Sport Fishing
Based out of Richmond, Addictive Sport Fishing is your ticket to a memorable time on the water.
Capt. John aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let him know what you’re after! Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, and jigging. You’re looking at 5 to 10-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Halibut, Salmon, Rockfish, Lingcod, Sturgeon, and Shark, depending on the weather and time of year.
You’ll be fishing from Jane’s Addiction, a 30’ Grady White boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. It also includes a toilet and an ice box.
The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you’ll need for a productive day on the water. Fishing licenses aren’t included, so make sure to get them prior to the trip.
You’re welcome to keep all legal species caught during the trip.
There will be a first mate on board to help you with anything you need. Tips for good service are always appreciated.

Full Day Bay Trip
Great trip
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.

Half Day Trip – Bay
Captain John and Austin were the best!
This was the perfect trip to go on! The group was three adults and two 5 year olds. Captain John and his crew not only knew where the fish were biting, but knew how to make the whole experience magical for the kiddos. The boat was immaculate. You know when you go on boats and everything looks clean, but then you go to the bathroom and it’s smelly and gross. Well that was the opposite of this experience. Not only was the boat immaculate, but the bathroom was spotless. That may seem like a random thing to comment on, but if you have kids, well you know how important it is. So we spent the day fishing with a great captain and his first mate. Thanks for the memories. See you next time!

Caught more than we could handle
Great communications prior to the trip. Then a Great, Clean, beautiful boat at a fantastic, convenient location. Then that boat with 600hp flew across the bay but felt smooth as a Cadillac. Anchored, and dropped lines in and BAM my grandkids and son were reeling in the leopard sharks. A fantastic memorable day with family and new friends.
