Capt. Brian runs trips out of Berkeley aboard 30' Hewescraft Aluminum fishing. The crew will demonstrate techniques such as trolling, drifting, or something unique to the area. The only way to learn is to join them on the water.

    5 Stars Across The Board!!!!

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut & Striper • 3 adults

    Originally booked for halibut and stripers, but due to good weather, we headed offshore to the islands. Man, what a great choice. Everyone caught their limit of rockfish with a bonus lingcod. The captain and crew were amazing and the boat was top notch. We will definitely be booking our next trip through Reel Freaks charter.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you Kevin. What a fun crew! We can’t wait to fish with you all again! 🤙🏼

    8 Hour Trip – Halibut & Striper • 4 adults

    Very nice boat we fished very hard. The captain was very diligent and put us on fish. A lot of shakers but that is halibut fishing. The deck hand Josh was GREAT. Will rebook later in the season.

What's biting with Reel Freaks Sportfishing in Bodega Bay

Dungeness Crab season opens with a bang when these delicious critters are at their peak! Fishing for Lingcod is excellent, and you can also target Rockfish and Halibut while you're at it.
