Lots of Fish Catching Experience !!

8 Hour Trip – Catalina Island4 adults

Gerry is family friendly and an exceptional host. He follows the rules of fishing and keeps his boat clean and safe for others to use. He's patient and great fishing with children; giving pointers, and keeping them safe by giving the do's and don't's. His communication skills were professional answering my calls and text messages in a timely manner which was helpful for me because this was our first time fishing on a boat and I had no clue what I needed to bring or do. We caught plenty of fish and took some home to eat. We started at 6am and took a break on the Island around 12pm. We got burgers for lunch and candy from the candy shop. My entire family enjoyed the experience and we definitely will be fishing with Gerry again when we return to California! Definitely worth the money I paid ! Thank you Gerry!! This is from the Shines family and we appreciate you 💚💯 P.S. We seen Bold Eagles, Seals and a school of dolphins and they were beautiful 😍

    Curse broken!!

    Offshore Full Day2 adults

    My buddy and I finally pulled the trigger on a private charter and it was a very amazing experience! Captain Gerry was very nice and tried his best to put us on some fish. we did not hit on major pelagics but ended up with a couple bonitos, skipjack tuna, and a yellowtail. Would definitely recommend him to anyone out there! I would definitely be using him again in the near future! thank you captain Gerry!

    Amazing guide

    4 Hour Trip – Local (PM)1 adult

    A great experience, Gerry was both well informed and fun to be around. I definitely would recommend him for anyone looking to get out on a boat and fish without having a crowd of people surrounding you.

    Great time!

    6 Hour Trip – Catalina Island3 adults1 child

    Capt Gerry is the man! We had a smooth (enough) ride out to Catalina and the Calico were jumping onto our hooks the first spot Gerry took us too. Caught a couple of nice Bonitas too. Bottom line, Gerry helped make a great memory for my 10 y/o son and my dad and I. We’ll definitely be back. I highly recommend Capt Gerry!

    Lots of Fish

    4 Hour Trip – Local (AM)4 adults2 children

    Captain Gerry was awesome! 2 adults and 2 kids under the age of 10, never stopped reeling them in. Captain got us on the fish early and the bite never stopped, as fast we could bring on in the next one was hooked! This is a must do trip for good times and great memories!

    Such a great trip!

    6 Hour Trip – Local4 adults

    We did a 6hr local trip and caught more bass than we could count. The weather wasnt the best but Captain Gerry made location adjustments to make the trip a better experience for the kids. Great trip and would highly recommend it!
