Make Your Next San Diego Trip an Adventure!
Step aboard with Brass Monkey Sportfishing and turn an ordinary day into an unforgettable offshore experience.
Your guide is Captain Ali Hussainy, a San Diego native, bringing years of high-level angling expertise and a passion for putting clients on fish—and teaching you how it’s done.
Depending on the trip or season, you could be targeting Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Yellowtail, Mahi Mahi (Dorado), Swordfish, Rockfish, California Sheephead, Halibut, and more.
You’ll be fishing aboard a fully rigged 39’ Contender Fisharound, built for performance, comfort, and serious fishing.
Onboard features include: Seakeeper (say goodbye to seasickness), Seakeeper Ride system for unmatched stability, Triple Mercury outboards, Full Simrad electronics suite, Premium PENN tackle, Starlink internet to stay connected offshore, Full galley + private head (toilet).
Comfortably accommodates up to 6 passengers.
We keep it simple—just bring your fishing license, food and drinks. Everything else is covered: top-tier tackle, ice, live bait & dead bait, gear and instruction.
A professional First Mate is onboard to ensure a smooth, productive trip.
Customary crew gratuity is 10–20%.
Before You Go - fishing licenses are required (U.S., Mexico, or both depending on trip). Some species may have seasonal regulations or tags. We’re happy to guide you on what you’ll need.
What to Bring - layers (it can get cold offshore), sunscreen & sunglasses, food and drinks. Alcohol is fine in moderation—just no hard liquor or glass bottles.
Pro tip: Dana Landing Market is right by the boat—grab everything you need on the way.
You could keep reading, but wouldn’t you rather be out there, bent rods, screaming drags, and foamers on the horizon?
