Perfect Last Minute Trip
Half Day Trip (AM) on May 1, 20265 adults
We had an incredible half day fishing trip on the Pacific Mistress out of Dana Point. Captain Anton and deck hand Logan were absolutely fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience fun from start to finish. The fishing was nonstop. Boy did we fish. We caught and released over 60 fish, which made for an exciting and action packed day on the water. To top it off, just as the trip was winding down, we landed a beautiful halibut that was perfect for dinner. Such a great surprise to end the trip. Everything about the experience was smooth, well organized, and enjoyable. You can tell this crew really knows what they are doing and genuinely cares about making sure everyone has a great time. Highly recommend this trip to anyone in the area. We will absolutely be booking again next time we are back.

Half Day Trip (PM) on August 11, 20252 adults
Captain Anton and First Mate Logan provided an outstanding fishing experience. Both of them are patient, knowledgeable, helpful and showed a nice sense of humor. They made our successful fishing experience really pleasant and enjoyable. We were a group of three: an excited 11-year old and 2 enthusiastic, adults. We are not neophytes. Each of us has spent plenty of time fishing in recent years. Anton and Logan are both quite personable which made for an extremely relaxed atmosphere aboard the Pacific Mistress. Very highly recommended. 5+/5
