    Fantastic tripb

    3/4 Day Trip — Coronado Islands • 4 adults

    Bruce was very informative and a great guy to hang out with on the ocean he got us on the fish and we went home with some nice yellow fin. Would definitely book another trip with these guys. They know what they are doing and where to find the fish. If you’re looking for a great charter these are your guys. The equipment is nice and clean and they are really friendly.

    Reported catch:
    Pacific Barracuda
    California Sheephead
    Rockfish

    This fishing charter was for my husband’s birthday, and it has been an amazing trip! We’ve already caught 4 fish, and the captain and crew were incredibly friendly and such great company. I would absolutely recommend booking a fishing charter with them. It’s been such a fun and memorable experience!
