Fun for your whole family!
3 Hour Trip - 4:30 PM on July 10, 20263 adults3 children

We had the pleasure of joining Captain Joe and Jimmy on our 3 hr evening fishing adventure. We had the most memorable and incredible time ever! Our family of 6, two adults and 4kids ages 13-7. We all caught fish, had great laughs and made memories that will last forever! My daughter(12) hooked a 25lb yellowtail and reeled that thing in better than most men! It was so exciting and she is hooked, just like the rest of us on sport fishing! Till next time!

Reported catch:
Yellowtail Amberjack
Pacific Barracuda
Calico Bass
Response from Captain

Jade, the pleasure was all ours. Your daughter was amazing, reeling in that yellowtail. You are right when you say you reeled that fish in better than most men. Creating memories that will last a lifetime, one charter at a time. Thanks again for everything, and I look forward to talking soon.

Great fishing charter !
3 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on July 6, 20262 adults2 children

Capt Joe put us on the fish pretty quickly. We caught a Mako Shark, several Calico Bass and a yellowtail amberjack. We did the 4 hour day trip and it was the perfect amount of time for us. Once we were back in dock Capt Joe filet the fish we wanted and grilled them for dinner that night. Everything was fantastic (the Mako shark was our favorite). Great guide, boat and experience.

Our best Trip!!!
Half Day Trip — Inshore on July 4, 20263 adults

Capt Joe and Jimmy were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and excellent hosts. Full of action especially it being only a half day trip. We caught barracuda, bonito, kelp bass, mackerel. My son landed 2 out of 3 nice Yellow Tail which was the best part of the day. We will definitely be back!

Response from Captain

Thanks Mike for taking the time and writing such a great review. You guys really crushed it catching some quality yellowtail and other fish species. Great job on catching all those fish and thanks again for everything.

This was an amazing trip! We couldn’t have asked for a better 1st time experience! Captain Joe and Deck Hand Jimmy really took care of us; continuing to take us to the best locations, giving us the best chance to catch multiple fish. Our group had some with fishing experience and some brand new fishers and they both made sure everyone caught something! Thank you guys so much! We would love to go with them again for our future trips!

Arms worn out hauling in Fish
3/4 Day Trip — Inshore on April 19, 20263 adults

We started bottom fishing and it was fast and furious. There were numerous doubles with large bottom fish and the crew even had to return safely two large yellow eye rockfish that are on the no keep list. captain Joe and mate Jimmy kept us on fish for the entire morning and we final had to cry uncle. Time was still left so we tried for a tuna hook up to no availe. great day on the water. i would go with these guys again in a heart beat.

Reported catch:
Rockfish
Lingcod
Response from Captain

JIM, thanks for taking the time and writing such a great review. Great job on all those fish. The rock fish were very aggressive on your trip and it’s good to see you. Quite quality and quantity. Thanks again for everything. Take care. Talk soon.
