Make some memories in Dana Point and go fishing with RockenReel Sportfishing.

These waters are known for Amberjack, Pacific Barracuda, Skipjack, Calico Bass, California Sheephead, Mahi Mahi, Striped Marlin, Rockfish, Sand Bass, Scorpionfish, White Seabass, Mako Shark, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. During the trip you might be spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Steven can also help you try kite fishing. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing.

Kids are welcome, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks – luckily, Capt. Steven will have some on board!

Your adventure begins aboard a 36' Chris-Craft with capacity for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

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.

Before coming aboard, you will 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 never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks included on board.

You could keep reading this, but wouldn't you rather be fishing with RockenReel Sportfishing?

6 HR FISH / SHARK TOURNAMENT FISHER - 12:00 PM on April 4, 20266 adults
Captain Steve and deck hand Patrick made a beautiful Dana Point day even better. They both worked very hard, kept us entertained and we caught lots of rock fish. We had a group with ages ranging from 5 years to 72 years and everyone had a blast. We would definitely go back out on the S.S. Tartar Sauce!
Reported catch:
Rockfish
