Capt. Zach is the man!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 14, 2025 • 2 adults
My son and I had a great time with Zach on a half-day trip. Nice boat and gear and, importantly, Capt Zach works hard to get you into the fish - he moved us around and made sure we were on top of fish all day. Easy guy to be with. Definitely would book with him again. Thanks Capt. Zach!

We had a great time with you and the boys.
You guys were troopers and we stayed the course and it ended up paying off! Hope to see you out soon. Thanks again!

Unforgettable Father-Son Fishing Adventure in San Diego!
3/4 Day Trip – Offshore on September 9, 2024
My son and I recently embarked on a 3/4 day chartered fishing trip off the coast of San Diego, and it was an absolute blast! From the moment we stepped aboard, the crew made us feel welcome and excited for the day ahead. Their expertise and passion for fishing were evident, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had a successful and memorable experience.
The fishing itself was phenomenal. We were fortunate enough to reel in some impressive bluefin tuna, a true testament to the abundance of marine life in these waters. The thrill of the fight and the satisfaction of landing such a magnificent fish were moments we'll cherish forever.
Throughout the trip, the crew provided valuable guidance and assistance, ensuring we were using the right techniques and maximizing our chances of success. They were also incredibly friendly and engaging, sharing stories and insights about the local marine ecosystem.
The boat itself was comfortable and well-equipped, with plenty of space to relax and enjoy the stunning views of the San Diego coastline. The 3/4 day duration was perfect, allowing us ample time to fish, bond, and create lasting memories.
I highly recommend this chartered fishing trip to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure on the water. Whether you're an experienced angler or a novice, the crew will cater to your needs and ensure you have a fantastic time. We can't wait to return for another exciting fishing excursion in San Diego!

Wow Shawn! Thank you for the review!
We enjoyed having you two! It was nice to be able to land some BFT. The one in the end was lost but we managed! You guys were super respectful, paid attention and worked well with us and that is key! I hope to see you guys again soon! Thank you

Don’t Pass This Boat Up!
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 3, 2024 • 2 adults
Zach and Russell did such an amazing job ensuring my friend and I were all set and taken care of during our fishing trip.
Although we were skunked - it was no fault of these two fellas who made every last ditch effort to hook a big one, which I didn’t tell them but I let it get away!!
Super knowledgeable of the area, experienced in the sport and great personalities!
Would recommend them and plan to join them again soon.
Thank you for a great day Zach and Russell!

Misty, Thanks so much!
You and Havely were rad to have on with us!
We had fun for sure. Unfortunately the fishing was slow but we fished hard. Super cool to fish with some serious women anglers that fish harder than most dudes we know. As we are approaching prime time peak season we can’t wait to get you back out and catch ‘em up! See you soon!
