Western Star Sportfishing 

Every angle was covered; top of the line equipment; incredible crew (hats off to Omar and Nick)…these guys were second to none. Kerim was relentless in getting us on the fish. The bite wasn’t great and the Blue fin were being shy in the early morning window….. despite a less than stellar bite, The crew made sure Every one landed a fish and we even had Bonita sashimi on the boat. If you want to know who to pick, and are in that mode where you don’t know which charter to pick……. Read this and stop looking! The conversation was awesome, we wanted for nothing and are committed to returning back with Western Star! You will not be disappointed!

Amazing trip with 2 Dads and 3 boys that are about 14. We caught our limit on yellowtail and had a couple Bonita mixed in. Kerim found the fish and it was a couple of catching fish one after another. The deckhands were very patient teaching the kids along the way. The boat is perfect with 2 different sleeping rooms. Food was great they cooked for us as well. Will book with them again for sure!

Our trip with the Western Star was an unforgettable afternoon out with the family. Captain Karem and his first mate Kyle were very welcoming and made you feel eight at home. The ship is more than accommodating with ample space to lay down, sit and bs, or have a beer in the back while you enjoy the view. As first time fishers, the crew went above and beyond making sure that not only everything was easy but that we caught alot of fish 😱 I forgot to take my seasick meds so qe had to turnaround early but I will STILL be back in the immediate future for those bluefin tunas 😋 Thanks again for the fun guys 🙌

Fantastic trip, Captain and crew made the trip. Right on top off the fish. Great advise for both novis and experiencd fishing persons. The boat is beyond comfortable even on a little choppy seas. Our group plans to charter the day and half trip next time in town. The experience was 110 out off 100.

I took a half day trip today with two of my colleagues and it did not disappoint! Kerim and his crew were amazing. The boat is beautiful and very well maintained. Kerim and Jordan helped us at all times, baiting hooks, finding great spots and basically anything you ask for! All three of us were pulling in fish on every cast and most of the time they were doubles for every one of us! They really go the extra mile. Kerim told us about a processor close by to send our fish home but then he called them on the way back to the dock and they met us there. So amazing fishing, fantastic boat and kick ass crew that delivers outstanding customer service-- what more could you ask for! I highly recommend and definitely will be back.

Western Star Sportfishing is by far my new favorite boat!!!! We caught a ton of monster reds along with so many other species of rock fish, I couldn’t keep track. Huge thanks to Captain Kerim for the amazing hospitality and putting my friends and I on the fish all day long, we had such a blast!!! These guys had breakfast burritos in the morning for us and chili dogs for lunch with all the soda, beer and water you can drink, so legendary. I would recommend Western Star Sportfishing to anyone looking for a hardworking down to earth crew that will guarantee you have fun, put you on fish, and make you feel right at home!!! Infact, my friends and I were so stoked, I have already booked another trip with some co-workers to go again this weekend!!! Yeeeeeeeewww!!! Thanks again Kerim, we had an amazing time. See you soon!!!!!

The boat is very comfortable to sleep in on the overnight trip. We had great weather and calm seas. We found tuna but couldn't get them too bite. The Captain and crew worked very hard looking for fish. The gear was quality and there was plenty of room to fish. We had lots of live bait. We would go on this trip again and would recommend for any serious tuna fisherman.

The good: Karim, Matt, and Kyle did a great job of putting us on the fish....helping my dad and rookie friend with gear, fighting fish along the rail, and making the day a HUGE success! I can’t thank you guys enough for helping to check this off my dad’s bucket list! It was a great day of fishing! The bad: Reviews aren’t worthwhile if they are not honest. This review would have been 5 stars except for the two deck hands openly arguing and yelling at each other right in front of me several times throughout the day. Awkward, unnecessary, and unprofessional.

Booked our trip for my BIL 50th birthday. Had a great time. Even my wife who was initially wary of being on the ocean had a great time. Captain Kerim and his deck hand were fabulous! Every time we pulled in a fish, one of them had the next pole ready to get down to the bottom and catch another. I think our total day netted us about 55 lbs. Kerim got us in touch with a processing center, now we are just waiting for our fish to get to Colorado so we can eat it.

Amazing Day Of Fishing. The Captain took us about 4 hours south into Mexican waters and past where everyone else was fishing. As soon as we made our first stop we hit the jackpot with Limits of Dorado within 45 minutes. Over all a great day. The boat was comfortable enough for 6 people, and the captain and deckhand were a lot of help.
