  Captain Sean & William were outstanding... Great times were had....

  Full Day Halibut+Bass $275/pp on May 23, 2026 • 3 adults

  Captain Sean and his deckhand, William, were absolutely outstanding. They put us on fish the entire day and were incredibly patient and helpful throughout the trip. Both are highly personable and great to talk to. I have fished with many charter captains, and it’s the crew members who have a genuine passion for what they do, and who care deeply about creating a memorable experience, that make all the difference. That is exactly what you get here. Moving forward, whenever I have the time and money, I’ll be spending it with Capt. Sean. Highly recommend!

  Full Day Halibut+Bass $275/pp on October 3, 2025 • 2 adults

  Stepped on a nice Admiral Guadalupe to a friendly crew and two set of rods set up for halibut and Stripers. Captain got us underway quickly and picked up a good amount of live bait and took us to the bass ground anchored up and had us limited off bass by the time the sun was just rising above the fog. Quickly moved to fishing in the bay and I was lucky enough to connect with a nice halibut within minutes. After that it was a grind through sharks and then the bite turned hot. (3) fish to fill limits and they were chewing as we were reeling up. Captain got us headed back while deck cleaned boat kept fish on ice, bled and rinsed throughout the day. Deckhand William did a great job cleaning our fish. Captain and crew respected the fish and treated us like friends. Everything you're looking for in a Charter.

  Just for the Halibut

  Full Day Halibut+Bass $275/pp on September 30, 2025 • 1 adult

  I fish with a lot of professional guides (e.g., 9 different guides last year and 10 already this year) all over the country, both freshwater and saltwater. I nearly always catch a bunch of fish, and this trip was no exception. We fished in San Francisco Bay and targeted California halibut, a species I’d never caught before (or even seen). I caught a bunch of smaller halibut and then had to quit with my limit of two beautiful keepers, an 8-pounder and a 12-pounder. Captain Sean Stafford and his mate William were excellent. Sean offers a wide range of fish-target trips, depending on the season and the demand. I would gladly go on any fishing trip with Sean.

  Great Time out in the SF Bay

  PM 1/2 day Halibut+Bass Private on August 17, 2025 • 5 adults

  Took my 13 year old son and three of his buddies out fishing with this charter. Captain Sean and his first mate, William, couldn't have been better hosts. The rods, LIVE bait (a big hit with the kids), beverages and safety gear were provided, and the kids were set up for a very successful afternoon out on the water. They caught a few small halibut, a couple of striped bass and a few different species of sharks. Most importantly, the trip felt very safe and the crew was knowledgeable. Grateful to them for kindly putting up with four very excited, hyper and chatty boys - highly recommend!

  Fishing with Sean

  Full Day Halibut+Bass Private Trip on July 8, 2026 • 4 adults

  Captain Sean and first mate John were terrific hosts and teachers. They were able to corral and direct our small herd of neo-fisherman cats with kindness and enthusiasm. Everyone caught fish, noone took an extracurricular swim, and we all ended the excursion at the dock. What more could one ask for - a day that will be revered by our three generations of family members?
