Great kid friendly outing!

3 Hour Trip - 3:00 PM6 adults2 children

We can’t thank Captain Brian and Sam enough. They put our family on a lot of rockfish and showed us a great time. A special call out to Sam. This was a first time experience charter fishing for our two youngest sons. Sam was engaging with the kids, raised their excitement level and helped them along the way. If we charter again, we will book with Captain again!!!

    Limited Out!

    12 Hour Trip – Offshore • 6 adults

    Best fishing experience of our lives. We did a 12 hour offshore trip (6 of us) and it was like a highlight reel you would see on YouTube. Tons of action, Brian and Nick put us right on the fish and we started hammering them quickly. We caught Yellowfin, Yellowtail and Mahi on our trip. Even had one stolen by a Mako Shark that breached the surface and did a back flip with our tuna in its jaws! Amazing! Brian and Nick pushed us to our full potential, even when we were getting worn out from big yellowfin they pushed us to fish harder and better and it paid off, everyone did a great job! Fillet process was great too, thanks Nick for sending us home with enough fish fillets for the rest of the year! Haha

    That was fun and that Mako shark was worth loosing the fish it ate! Thanks for fishing with us!

    Unforgettable 13th Birthday Trip – Non-Stop Action & Amazing Crew!

    5 Hour Inshore Trip • 6 adults • 3 children

    We booked this trip to celebrate our son's 13th birthday with a couple of his best buds, and Brian and Nick completely delivered! From start to finish, there wasn't a dull moment. They put us right in the middle of the action, and the kids had an absolute blast pulling in tons of bonito and two massive 20+ pound yellowtails. On the ride back, Nick filleted all of our catch, making for an incredible dinner feast when we got home. Our son said it was his best birthday ever! A huge thanks to Brian and Nick for making this trip so special for the boys. We'll definitely be back!

    Awesome time!

    3 Hour Trip - 3:00 PM • 2 adults

    Great experience! Trolling was not working so they moved to deeper water and we fished off the bottom. Caught plenty of fish, enough that both my arms and my daughter’s arms were tired. Boat, captain and first mate were wonderful. Look forward to our next chance to do it again!

    Great family trip

    8 Hour Inshore Trip • 6 adults • 1 child

    Captain Brian and Mate Josh worked hard all day to keep 5 adults and my 12 year old grandson fishing. The boat was extremely well equipped with all the rods necessary and as soon as a fish was landed we were dropping another line. Beautiful day on the water. Thanks
