You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

    One of the best charters we have been on

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on July 10, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had a great morning fishing, caught more than expected and the kids loved it. Captain Justin was great to deal with, very friendly, and made sure that the kids were involved and catching fish. 10 out of 10 would do it again tomorrow if i had the time and money. There might be cheaper options but if you want professional services these guys will not disappoint.

    4 Hour Trip – Nearshore (AM) on July 15, 2026 • 2 adults

    We went out with Justin and had a great time, I had just returned from a charter trip in Hawaii and this was so much better. Highly recommend these guys if the fish are not biting they’re not afraid to move to a different spot. we ended up with 3 reds between the 2 of us, great day!!

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on July 2, 2026 • 2 adults

    The bite was slow but he kept it fun. We caught a nice king and a good Spanish and went into the bay and caught some trout. It was a great time for me and my son who is leaving for college. I would definitely do it again

    Favorite charter so far!

    3 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on July 11, 2026 • 2 adults

    Cpt Justin was fantastic! I’m used to crusty dusty grumbly old captains but Justin was a breath of fresh air. He was very knowledgeable about exactly where we could get some fish and did a great job handling the boat. He was also very patient and kind teaching us the current ways to cast and reel for the different fish we were after but it was his personality that made the trip even better. It was like hanging out with an old friend. Would recommend him to anyone especially younger lively people who don’t want to be grumbled at by leathered old men.
