Fish Reapers Sportfishing 

My friends fly 14 hours from Beijing take-parting my daughter’s wedding ceremony. After the ceremony, we booked one day ocean fishing trip. We got 30 rock fish and 4 sea strip base within only 4 and half hours. The weather is wonderful on the day, the boat is pretty new. we got full amount Rock Fish, and almost got one about 40 pound lingcod. It is our first ocean fishing trip with wonderful ocean fishing harvest. We have a big fish dinner party in the evening with steam sea strip base fishing/ Fresh fry filet/ Stew Rock fish. Very fresh and delicious. We learn a lot of fishing skill and separates different fish families and fishing timing from Captain. It is a wonderful trip and experience.

Fantastic state of the art boat and even better crew. Captain Scott knows the waters and the spots to give you the best chance to put you on fish. He's responsive, professional and easy to work with. Boat is fast and comfortable with all the bells and whistles. Loved Pete as well on the deck as he knows exactly what to do and caters to your skill level and needs. One of the best charters I've been on and can't wait to book them again.

Our full-day Half Moon Bay fishing charter with Captain Scott was awesome! We had a small group, and Scott took us to multiple rocky reef spots targeting rockfish. The ocean views out there were absolutely gorgeous. Captain Scott is super experienced and knows these waters inside out. Once we hit our daily rockfish bag limit, he didn’t wrap up the trip early. He cruised back and forth along the coast, letting us keep fishing catch-and-release just for fun. We got tons of casts and totally got our fill. This day on the water was well worth every penny. We had such a great, fulfilling time, and we’re already looking forward to another offshore trip with Captain Scott.

Highly recommend Captain Scott and his first mate, Mark! We had such a great day out on the water with our family. We had kids ranging from 5 to 14 years old, and both Scott and Mark were incredibly patient, helpful, and great with all of them. Scott’s boat is beautiful, newer, comfortable, and very well equipped with everything you need for a great day of fishing. Scott clearly knows the waters around Half Moon Bay and knew exactly where to take us. We caught a ton of fish and didn’t even keep everything we caught! We brought in a great variety, including vermilion, tiger, canary and other rockfish, a couple of rosy rockfish, lingcod, and even a sanddab. Scott and Mark were incredibly knowledgeable about the different species we were catching, which made the experience even more fun for the kids. I didn’t quite have my sea legs at first, and Scott was so thoughtful. He even offered me some bubbly soda to help settle my stomach. Thankfully, I shook it off pretty quickly and was able to enjoy the rest of the day. Mark was fantastic. He has been fishing the Half Moon Bay area for decades and has so much knowledge and so many great stories. He was especially wonderful with the kids and incredibly patient with them throughout the trip. He even helped us fillet our catch afterward, which we really appreciated. The boys had an absolute blast, my husband loved it, and it was such a fun experience for our entire family. We came home with plenty of fresh fish and some great memories. We would absolutely book with Captain Scott and Mark again and highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun, family-friendly fishing trip out of Half Moon Bay!

My 12yo son and I had a great time fishing with Captain Scott on the Fish Reaper. He is a conscientious host who worked very hard all to keep our lines in the water and to give us the the best opportunity possible to catch fish. He has clearly put his heart and soul into a state of the art fishing boat - high end equipment and technology on board. He also clearly loves fishing himself and really wants his guests to have fun and catch fish ... he knows the topography of the ocean floor like the back of his hand and was constantly maneuvering to keep us on top of the fish. My son (despite a little sea sickness) was thrilled to reel in fish and is already asking me when we can do another trip. We will be back!
