The stated goal of Dana Wharf Sportfishing is to provide a unique experience to locals and visitors alike while showing all the wonders of the Orange County coastline. The crew is made up of local professionals that will make sure the trip is tailored to your particular needs and wants.

You'll be fishing on the Current, a 53' Hatteras that's powered by a pair of 1400 HP Detroit engines. The boat boasts a spacious and comfortable interior, to ensure you have a fun and relaxing trip. It contains a full array of safety gear and navigation electronics so you can just lay back and enjoy the fishing.

Dana Point is one of the nicest areas to be fishing in when it comes to this part of California. Species like Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, Calico Bass, Halibut, and Rockfish are all waiting for you to come along. The waters are also home to a variety of wildlife for you to see - whales, dolphins, harbor seals, and California sea lions.

Rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price of a trip, along with complimentary snacks and drinks. The crew will clean and fillet the catch for your convenience once the trip is over. Bring a pair of polarized sunglasses, and get ready for the fishing trip of a lifetime!

Fantastic trip
Special 5 hour trip for Peter Fernberg on September 18, 20252 adults
We booked a half day trip on The Current and what a brilliant trip we had. We fished off the coast and within minutes of starting we were into Sand Bass and Calico Bass and caught well over 60 fish and kept enough for lunch! We moved 15 mins south and got into some serious Halibut, best over 30lb. Absolutely fantastic day and Brandon and Corbyn were fanatastic crew and looked after us superbly. Thanks again guys!

Great Day!
5 – Hour Trip - 12:00 PM on July 25, 20243 adults1 child
Catching fish is always a challenge, we didn't have much luck, caught two, but the captain/crew worked REALLY hard to try to make it a good experience for my grandsons. We moved often to find best spots, equipment was excellent, fishing finding equipment was top notch. They were VERY helpful with the 10 & 14 yr old. Although we didn't have a lot of luck, I will book them again next year, Beautiful boat!
