    Fishing Trip of a Lifetime

    8 Hour Trip – Striper • 4 adults

    Captain Ricky truly set the bar high for our very first father-and-sons fishing trip! I took my three boys—ages 14, 12, and 10—out to celebrate my oldest son’s 14th birthday, and it turned into an unforgettable adventure. Captain Ricky and partner, Ben, were patient, knowledgeable, and made sure every one of us had the time of our lives. We caught 14 fish—one for every year of my oldest’s life—and we landed several 6-foot plus sturgeon weighing over 100 pounds! The excitement on my boys’ faces was priceless. It was the perfect combination of fun, challenge, and bonding that we’ll remember forever. God is good. Romans 8:28-32

    This week the fishing on San Francisco bay was fantastic. Plenty of opportunities for our customers to hook and land Striped Bass and Halibut. Everyone went home with a lot of delicious meat!

    So far this january the Sturgeon bite has been consistent. Anglers are experiencing great action landing quality fish on every trip. The colder water temperatures have made the Striper bite a little slower but some nice Stripers are being landed on occassion.

    Rickey is a pleasant and knowledgable captain who showed clear expertise in targeting fish on the delta, and was and active in keeping us on track for hooking fish all day long. We caught plenty of fish, shared stories, and made memories. Pricing is more than fair for the experience, and we will definitely be back again.

    The fall sturgeon season is off to a great start. We celebrated a 13th birthday party on the boat and these teenagers did great. Everyone caught their new “biggest fish ever!!!” They even got to experience double hook ups on these monster fish. This is a birthday party we will never forget.
