Fishing in Half Moon Bay

Looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of San Francisco? Let a Half Moon Bay fishing charter take care of it all. Just 20 miles south of the Bay Area, this charming fishing town is like a whole other world. Life here revolves around the water, and casting a line is a must when you visit. Head out to the Pacific and get your fish on in style.
 
Speaking of fish, you can expect a who's who of North California's A-listers. Salmon steal the show, in particular Chinook 'King' Salmon who grow to incredible sizes. Then come the Rockfish – a range of bottom-dwelling creatures, who offer up incredible table fare. There's also Halibut, Lingcod, Crabs, and much more to keep you on your toes and make sure you go home with a tasty treat. 
 
Half Moon Bay fishing charters offer trips lasting from half-day excursions to 8+ hour extravaganzas. With the fish so close to shore, you can get your fill on a shorter trip, and these are great for beginners and families. Full day voyages are reserved for more experienced anglers, giving you the chance to really hone your skills and go after a personal best. 
 
Pillar Point Harbor will most likely be the starting point for your trip, more than likely. This bustling marina is full of sportfishing boats ready to take you out. It's also a great place to buy some fresh fish, so even if you're just passing through, don't forget to pay the dock a visit. 
 

Rules & Regulations

Before heading out with a Half Moon Bay Fishing charter, you'll need a California fishing license. Get yours online before you visit, and you'll be good to go. Other than that, you'll want to be aware of bag and size limits, along with specific fish seasons. Heading out with a reputable charter captain will make sure you stay on top of everything.
