There's a fish with your name on it in Huntington Beach and Yokley Sportfishing will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Tim can tell you all about them.

These waters are known for Yellowtail Amberjack, Sculpin, Mahi Mahi, California Corbina, California Sheephead, Bluefin Tuna, Sand Bass, Pacific Barracuda, Halibut, Calico Bass, Lobster, Rockfish, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Tim can also help you try kite fishing.

Yokley Sportfishing welcomes kids aboard, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be casting lines from a 30' Carolina Classic sportfishing vessel with space for 4 passengers. It has outriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Tim will provide rods and reels for you. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

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

It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Yokley Sportfishing.

Amazing Day!!
Half Day Trip – Local AM on January 27, 2026
My 7-year-old son and I went on a day trip with Captain Tim for his very first time on a boat, and we had an amazing experience. Captain Tim was incredibly knowledgeable, had all the life vests ready, and took the time to go over the boat’s safety before we headed out, which I really appreciated as a parent. My son was beyond excited to catch his first fish, and Captain Tim made it such a fun and memorable moment for him. He made the entire trip comfortable and enjoyable for both of us. The next time we’re in California, we will definitely be booking another trip with Captain Tim!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience—it truly means a lot to hear how much you and your son enjoyed the trip! I’m thrilled that I could make his first boat adventure and that exciting first catch such a special memory. Safety is always top priority, especially with young anglers on board, so I’m glad the prep and life vests gave you peace of mind. It was an absolute pleasure having you both out on the water, and I’d love to welcome you back for another fun day whenever you’re in California. Tight lines until then!

20 hours of fishing brilliance!
Full Day Trip – Catalina Island on July 9, 2025
Tim coordinated an awesome trio for my friend Chris and I in order to accomodate our schedule and maximize the range of species biting at different hours of the day: His boat is fast and comfortable and Tim has everything you need to catch whatever is biting. We fished from 4am in the backside of Cat for WSB and we all hooked up, but only i landed a one @ 49”! Chris landed a 20” juvenile WSB, granted this was only her 3rd time fishing! She was quite happy with Tim’s boat and it’s amenities and a well equipped bathroom to do her lady things in private! Happy wife Happy live as Tim exclaimed quite often that long day of catching several fish. Such a blast, you know your in good hands with Tim! I highly reccomend Yokley Sportfishing!!
Reported catch:
Halibut
Calico Bass

Full Day Trip – Catalina Island on February 7, 2026
Turning 40 while Fishing with Tim was the best experience! Knowing it was my birthday, Tim picked us up right on time from the dock and the boat was fully stocked with beverages and good vibes. Tim even sang me happy birthday while I chummed the waters from partying too hard the night before! MAde lasting memories while we caught fish, saw orcas and motored around Catalina Island. Yokley Fishing is the only way to go!
