5 – Hour Trip on August 30, 2026 • 6 adultsWe caught lots of fish all day long. Captain Travis knew exactly where to go and all 6 of us killed it at every spot. We came home with a ton of filets and would highly recommend this charter!!!

Peter FernbergRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFantastic trip
Special 5 hour trip for Peter Fernberg on September 18, 2025 • 2 adultsWe 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!
Fred Armogida5.0VerifiedGreat Day!
5 – Hour Trip - 12:00 PM on July 25, 2024 • 4 adults • 1 childCatching 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!
