Captain Matt and Vincent are the best! They truly made this trip memorable. We did a half-day trip and ended up catching a little over 50 fish! 🎣

Captain Matt did his best to get us into areas that were biting, and I really appreciated that he travels a little farther out than most tours. It really gives you that true “deep sea experience” you’re looking for.

Before booking, I always like to give the captains a call. After calling several different tours, Matt was the only one who gave me genuine and honest responses. He doesn’t just want to collect your money—he genuinely cares about your experience and makes the trip feel tailored to you.

I’ll definitely be back for a full-day trip, and we’ll only be booking with Matt and Vincent! 🎣❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Amazing Salmon Fishing Experience!

We booked our first-ever salmon and saltwater fishing charter today, and the experience completely exceeded every expectation we had! From start to finish, Captain Matt and Vince were absolutely incredible.

Their knowledge, experience, and expertise were obvious from the moment we got on the boat. They knew exactly where to take us, what to look for, and how to put us on the fish. We hit our max salmon limit—and then some—well before we even reached the halfway point of the day, with plenty to spare for the crew! I don’t think we could have asked for a better first experience.

Matt and Vince were patient, helpful, and made sure we felt comfortable the entire time. Beyond being extremely good at what they do, they’re just genuinely great people with awesome personalities. They kept us laughing, made the whole experience fun and relaxed, and made it feel like we were out fishing with friends who just happened to really know their stuff.

We enjoyed every minute of the trip and honestly couldn’t have asked to be in better hands for our first charter. They completely blew our expectations out of the water and set the bar incredibly high for any fishing trip we take in the future.

We will 100% be booking with Matt again, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and Vince to any of my friends or family looking for an unforgettable fishing charter.

10/10. Incredible crew, incredible fishing, and an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time. Can’t wait to do it again!
Matt and Vince, if you guys are reading this; thanks for giving me and my friends the highlight of our year. See you again soon.
P.S.  Plz send the pics ty xD

Took the kids on their first fishing anything trip and they fell in love with the sport!There were many firsts and an interesting trip, but overall the kids loved it! San Francisco waters in the morning and calm and smooth sailing by 10am. Vincent first mate was on top of it getting everything ready for from the right rods to getting baits on our hooks and with nets on hand. You get treated like family which made the experience top notch. Highly recommend!

Seeing the salmon bite from the weekend, I decided to book a trip on FV_Plumeria with Matt & Vince. My first pacific salmon trip in a long time. Once we were at the place Matt put us on the fish in the morning!  We had the first few fish by noon and the bite turned off…. We tried all over the place, it was grind and the bite was very slow, one by one we had fish.  We stayed out later than most of the fleet until everyone had fish.  This was my first Salmon is almost 15yrs. I had a blast and went home tired with 2 quality samon. Biggest fish was 23lbs and put up a fight!!

Matt & Vince did everything they could do to get us on the fish!!

I am planning to go out again before the season closes on the FV_Plumeria of course!!

I fished aboard the Pamela J on July 12, 2026, out of San Francisco, and it was nothing short of fantastic. Departing under the Golden Gate Bridge at sunrise was a breathtaking start. Captain Matt Juarez and deckhand Vincent made the entire day memorable. They were knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a great time—whether it was helping us land salmon, taking group photos, or keeping the mood light with music and laughs. We even had whales and dolphins show up, making the day even more special. The crew’s dedication, especially Vincent’s, stood out—he truly wanted us all to succeed. By the end of the trip, we had quality fish and a boatload of great memories. Highly recommend the Pamela J for an all-around stellar fishing experience!
