Seasons Catch

Jul 14, 2016 San Pedro

Just the best abroad the "UPRISING" Sun was shining the weather was sweet.... Every day it was different. It all starts early, as the early bird catches the fish. A cast of the net to catch the first batch of fresh Sardins. Once Sardins are on live well we are ready to go. The spot is chosen depending how the weather is. Head out to captains choice. Deeper water from 80 to 200 ft for big fish and in shallow water small fish. On flat days we went to the deep to catch the big fish and on the choppy days we stayed in to catch the snappers and small ones. Everyday a different experience. Fun Fun Fun.........

Good Fishing with "UPRISING TOURS"

May 25, 2015 San Pedro

Half Day Trip – Reef Fishing (PM)

Captain Erik and Chris met us at the dock in a spotlessly clean and well equipped boat. After gathering bait we had luck with small snappers on the reef. Erik knows the area well and moved us when the fishing slowed. We had our catch prepared by a local restaurant on the beach. My brother and I can’t say enough good things about the knowledge and skill of Uprising Tours and will book with them again.

Great trip with great crew. Caught tons of snapper and lobster. Snorkeled on quiet reef with sharks and rays. Private beach with BBQ. They were very good cooks! The meal was fantastic. Would highly recommend.

It was a great day on the water. Captain Erik and mate Chris were very accommodating and helpful. They worked hard to get some fish for us. Chris was constantly working the rods and bait and Erik worked the waters well.
