Background: I’ve been fishing San Diego waters since 1981. I have been a fishing nut for the last 40 years and operating charters for 26 of those years. I take pride in showing fishermen and women of all ages and skill levels the best day they’ve had, fishing or otherwise. I believe happy clients are the cornerstone of a thriving charter operation.

Half Day Trip (AM)

We had a great experience fishing with this crew. However, thought we’d be deep sea fishing and catching some “big” fish to take home…. we did 4 hours which we should have booked 8 hour trip, because we never left marina and was hoping for a real fishing experience. Crew was great though. Next time we will book better and maybe ask if we are for sure going out deep sea fishing. Would have liked a better thrill experience

So you don’t have to read the whole thing don’t take this Charter. The bluefin were down south the crew and I and the entire fleet knew it except Captain Mike we drove all night North fished all day didn’t see another boat without Rush bringing his own stove and coffee pot we would have nothing.

I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy the trip. We have a ton of high end tackle but Ross brought his as an addition. The galley works fine but we like to BBQ on the deck for the clients since it’s just a stove top and microwave in the galley. Unfortunately there were no fish reported on Fish Dope in 72 hours in US or Mexican waters so we fished both Mexico and US waters and two anglers caught 2 yellowtail and a Bonita. We understand your experience is what matters and you have every right to your... More
