6 Hour Trip- Afternoon departure

Outstanding afternoon, limited out on rockfish…captain and crew were incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to spend the afternoon with. Had four young teenagers aboard, and the crew was patient and took more than the requisite time to educate the kids on how to handle the rods and fish when we hooked up. Would absolutely recommend them for both large and small groups!!

Solid, roomy boat, well equipped & clean (except for the head! 🙃). Good 1st experience for young kids who caught lots of small perch. Adults would have liked catching larger, more challenging fish however could only do one option. Overall experience A+! Thanks Captain Don & 1st Mate Thomas!

It was my pleasure to take your family out. Unfortunately, rockfish season is closed from July 16-31 so we didn’t have the option to try for them.
