    First fishing trip!

    Half Day Trip – Local AM • 4 adults • 2 children

    first and foremost, this was the best fishing trip ever. For context, this was our first fishing trip ever, and I wanted to take my three boys out deep sea fishing, which is exactly what we got. The captain was able to teach us how to fish and also teach us how to put on the bait as well as throw the rods out into the sea. He also had different types of snacks and beverages and had a good sound system so we had music playing at all times throughout the fishing trip, the crew was also great and helped us with the fishing like I said before this was our first session trip so the overall experience was pretty good and I would recommend this fish trip to anyone beginner or advance.

    Reported catch:
    Halibut
    Rockfish

    Amazing Fishing Experience

    Half Day Trip – Local AM • 3 adults

    One of the best fishing experiences i have ever had! My wife, som and I had the absolute pleasure of being on Captain Tim’s boat. He is a true professional who both knows how to locate the fish that are biting, offers multiple rod and bait options, has a fantastic fast boat that rides high and smooth in the water and offers all desired amenities (including rest room, galley, and sound system to name a few) and has a great personality. His service was off the chart positive. Lastly…we caught TONS of fish (over 50 between the 3 of us) and he filleted the keepers for us comprising of 9 bass, 7 perch, 3 mackerel and 1 barracuda. The halibut caught was awesome too but just a little too small to keep. Bottomline we had a fantastic fishing experience and highly recommend!! We definitely will do repeat business!

    Thank you for the kind words! WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY I had a blast and so happy y’all did too! The weather cooperated in the morning and we were set up for success. Thank you again and looking forward to the next one! Have a safe trip back to the PNW! Take care. - Capt. Tim

    Amazing Day!!

    Half Day Trip – Local AM

    My 7-year-old son and I went on a day trip with Captain Tim for his very first time on a boat, and we had an amazing experience. Captain Tim was incredibly knowledgeable, had all the life vests ready, and took the time to go over the boat’s safety before we headed out, which I really appreciated as a parent. My son was beyond excited to catch his first fish, and Captain Tim made it such a fun and memorable moment for him. He made the entire trip comfortable and enjoyable for both of us. The next time we’re in California, we will definitely be booking another trip with Captain Tim!

    Response from Charter operator

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience—it truly means a lot to hear how much you and your son enjoyed the trip! I’m thrilled that I could make his first boat adventure and that exciting first catch such a special memory. Safety is always top priority, especially with young anglers on board, so I’m glad the prep and life vests gave you peace of mind. It was an absolute pleasure having you both out on the water, and I’d love to welcome you back for another fun day whenever you’re in California. Tight lines until then!

    Awesome First Time Fishing in California!

    Half Day Trip – Local AM • 1 adult

    I booked a solo, last minute trip with the company, and the owner and captain both could not have been more accommodating and kind. I had an awesome early morning trip and knocked several fish off my bucket list. I highly recommend and will hopefully book again!

    Half Day Trip – Local AM • 3 adults • 1 child

    Our trip was a once in a life time experience since we were ale to not only spot a 18-20 foot great white shark but, also spent about a solid half hour of observing it. Captain Wade was excellent and went above and beyond to make sure my family had a great eexperience.

    Wade was amazing. First two casts this morning, BANG, fish on. Continued like that through the day. Wade never skipped a beat either, baiting hooks, moving the boat, he never stopped. Amazing time. Cannot recommend it enough!

    Could not have asked for a better Captain and crew. These guys are fun and knowledgeable and kept us pulling up fish the whole day. Caught my huge target fish and lots of stuff nonstop. They did a great job. Made us feel welcomed and somehow got my shy son to bust out of his shell, feel comfortable and have a great day. Highly recommended. Cant wait for my next trip.
