The Captain, TJ, and deck hand Bodie were awesome. They were knowledgeable, helpful and patient as we had 3 kids with us. We showed up a little early and they were ready to go, so much so that we were able to leave a bit earlier and take advantage of the extra time to catch a few more fish.
The boat was clean and spacious with enough seats for many in our party to take a nap on our way to Catalina. I would highly recommend booking a charter with Captain TJ on the Kamryn Dawson and plan to do so again in the future.

I want to share our incredible fishing experience with Kamyn Dawson Charters, which turned out to be the highlight of our Father’s Day! From the moment I reached out, their response time was nothing short of fantastic. They provided clear information on what to bring and ensured we were fully prepared for an unforgettable day on the water.
The crew was exceptionally courteous and friendly, making us feel right at home. The captain and his deckhand were absolute rockstars, showcasing their exceptional skills and knowledge of ocean fishing. My two boys were thrilled as they reeled in plenty of large fish, and their excitement was truly priceless!
Kamyn Dawson Charters has an outstanding reputation for a reason; their expertise in the fishing industry is remarkable. This experience was worth every moment, and I can’t wait to book another trip with them in the future. Thank you, Dawson Charters, for making our Father’s Day an unforgettable and beautiful experience! Wishing you continued success!

I booked a half-day fishing charter with Kamryn Dawson Charters as a Father’s Day gift for my dad, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences we’ve ever had together! Our group of six had an amazing time out on the water, and Captain TJ made the entire trip smooth, fun, and memorable.
The boat was clean and well-equipped, and Captain TJ and assistant Brodie were incredibly welcoming and professional from the moment we stepped on board. He took us out to a reef where the fish were biting nonstop—we caught a ton!
TJ and Brodie were knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had a great time. Whether it was helping us bait our hooks, teaching us how to fish, giving us tips on technique, or just sharing stories about the area, both made the fishing experience fun.
If you’re looking for a unique and meaningful way to spend time with family—especially for something like a special occasion—I can’t recommend Kamryn Dawson Charters enough. This Father’s Day trip was a gift none of us will forget, and we’re already talking about coming back again!
I only have a small complaint. The fish that was filleted on the boat was not descaled, so I had to do that at home.

Just got back from an incredible fishing trip! Captain TJ was super knowledgeable, kept us safe and put uswhere we needed to be to catch a variety of fish! I can’t say enough about how awesome our deck hand, Bodie, was. He went above and beyond to help us catch some amazing fish and filet the fish for us to take home. Definitely a trip to remember!

Captain TJ and Deckhand Daniel were amazing. The boat could not have been better. We went to Catalina on the 3/4 day. They drove from spot to spot till we got to the best spot. They found a school of Yellowtail. We were catching Bass and fighting off Seals for Yellowtail for most of the day. We probably caught about 30 fish in total. Captain TJ let us stay out there an extra hour, It was a great. All in all we had such a great time that we want to make this a regular thing with the Kamryn Dawson and its crew. Thank you Captain!
