Great day out on the Bay on the Nautilus with our cousins! Cap said conditions were less than ideal, but he was constantly calling the around the fleet and moving to new spots to ensure we were catching! Great expertise, the crew helped this group of newbies catch limit! Apparently we were the only boat that caught striper limit that morning!

I’ve fished with Ron for the past 38 years in the salt. From long ranging in Mexico to Offshore Tuna fishing out of Fort Bragg and everything in between. When he began Nautilus Sportfishing, after retiring from his full time prior professional career, I was excited for him. He’s respected by the fleet and has earned their respect as a networking Captain. Now Hunter, his deckhand, is in an outstanding position to learn and grow with one of the best examples of how to be in life. It’s a beautiful thing to watch Hunter mature over the years and express his passions through his work ethics. Boden Constructions fishing trips are well received by the crews, and it gives us a way to show our appreciation to them. Great people getting together to build beautiful memories for life. Book some trips with Ron and Hunter, and you will experience for yourself what I’ve said here. They are as good as any Sportfishing operation as you will find in Northern California, and better than most. They’ve earned a solid reputation in reputation country. Thank you again, Captains Ron and Hunter, for another beautiful day of fishing in the Salt.

Cpt. Ron and Hunter provided a superior fishing experience. I booked the Nautilus for a full day of fishing, celebrating two friend and family birthdays. Ron and Hunter worked hard all day to get us on fish. All fishing tackle, live bait, and nice rod/reels were included.. We limited on striped bass by early morning, and then focused on halibut. The large tide differential was not ideal for the flattie bite, but, Ron and Hunter coached us well to prevent dropped fish. We landed up with limits of striped bass, and a halibut per angler plus one.  I’ll definitely be back! Thank you to Cpt Ron and Hunter for a wonderful experience.

Capt Ron and his trusted sidekick Hunter were awesome. They did a great job with putting us on fish and taking care of a family of 8 ranging from 7months to 74 years old. Would definitely recommend.  Thanks a again to Capt Ron and crew for making this a memorable experience.

Capt Ron was super knowledgeable and helpful with our group. We’re all frankly pretty bad at fishing, but Ron and crew were extremely helpful with setting up our lines and helping us when catching fish.

Ron also clearly knows what he’s doing - we caught maybe 3x compared to our last trip with another guide. Part of this is of course just luck of the draw, but Ron’s got a great knowledge of currents, tides, and the spots to check out. And to top it all off, his phone is constantly going boing-boing-boing with fresh tips from his nautical besties.
