Capt Bill took us out on Father’s Day with only a 24 hr notice He picked us up at the dock and was friendly ,yet professional Took us out with his fish finder to find a bait ball and we hauled in a 13 lb halibut within 20 minutes My two daughters caught three more legal ones till the waves got really choppy It was our decision to return to the dock Bill expertly filleted 30 lbs of fish down to ten tasty pounds of fillet We had a great time and highly recommend Capt Bill for a fun trip

Nice well run boat. We fished Fishermen wharf and Richmond flats but got no keepers. A boat that went outside Golden gate came back with 7 limits.

Took two teenage boys fishing in the bay for their first time. Capt Bill was absolutely amazing! He explained to them everything they needed to know and guided them. We all learned so much about fishing boats and fishing in the bay. ... and along the way caught the limit of halibut. We are already talking about when to do our next adventure with Capt Bill.

My son in law, grandson and myself had a great day with Captain Bill went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience even though us older guys didn’t catch any fish that we could keep the boy caught 6 and got to bring home 2 and that was what it was all about. We will be using Captain Bill again probably the Sacramento River Adventure next going after some Sturgeon.
