Looking to catch some fish in San Diego? Reel Deep Sportfishing is here to make it happen! With Captain Sebastien at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

These waters are known for Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Yellowtail Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Rockfish, Halibut, and more – with any luck, they’ll make your reel scream. You may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Sebastien also offers kite fishing. For the more adventurous among you, there’s spearfishing.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are also a good idea – lucky for you, there will already be some on board!

Capt. Sebastien runs a 34’ Center console that holds up to 4 passengers. It has outriggers and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. It’s customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation. 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 may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Drinks and snacks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Reel Deep Sportfishing.

3 Hour Trip - Bay Fishing AM

Excellent Bay Experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

VERIFIED

Our Captain Sebastien Habert was amazing ! He guided us in different spots within the bay. We got lots of bites with a few confirm keeps. He was patient and allowed us to fish based on our specific needs. He identified when the teenagers got hits and guided them throughout the process. Overall , great idea for a day event of all ages! Bonus points we seen and was up close to sea lions docked at the fishing bay 😊. Will recommend to all for future endeavors 🛥️

Sebastien was personable and interactive. He shared knowledge about the local waters, bay and open waters fishing, and other local attractions. We caught many Sand Bass during our 3-Hour Bay Trip. We are ready for a longer trip and bigger fish on our next adventure!
