If you plan on fishing in San Diego, look no further than ReelDreams. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Bob is prepared to put you on fish.

Around here the fishing is popular for Yellowtail, Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Rockfish, Calico bass, Striped Marlin, and more with any luck. For these species, you're likely to use live bait or troll using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Bob can also show you kite fishing.

Capt. Bob will bring you aboard a 25' Parker pilothouse equipped with a SeaKeeper Ride that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

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 may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are closed toe shoes, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is not allowed.

    Captain Bobby Does it Again!!!!!!

    Full day offshore on September 12, 2026

    This is my 5th outing with Captain Bobby! And I’m already planning my next one. He knows how to read the conditions, get you in the zone and put you on some fish! He’s extremely generous with his knowledge. I went out with my kids this last time out, and we lost count on small fun-sized yellowtail and yellowfin tuna , a kelp patty he spotted was stacked, non-stop action , kids still raving about it. To top things off we left with 4 keepers, sushi for days. Including our first Mahi Mahi! Can’t recommend enough! San Diego is where it’s at

    Coronado Full Day Trip 9h - 7:00 AM on July 18, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Bob was awesome. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. He got us yellowtail on a day that no one else was catching any. Lots of nice calicos and barracuda too. The boat is in great shape, some of the nicest equipment and electronics I've ever chartered. My son, brother, and I had an amazing fun day on the water!
