NorCal Traditions Sportfishing 

Berkeley has a fish with your name on it, so let NorCal Traditions Sportfishing help you catch it!

There's no guarantee when you're fishing, but just some of the species you can catch around here include Halibut, Striped Bass, Rockfish, Lingcod, Leopard Shark, Sturgeon, Albacore Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, and more with any luck. On the day of your trip you're likely to troll or drift live bait, depending on the season.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. We recommend children be over 8 years old. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

Your vessel for the day is a 24' Raider aluminum fishing boat with space for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. They supply everything but lunch, drinks and license.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work and long hours.

Before coming aboard, you'll 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.

It's always wise to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
