Amethyst Fishing Charters 

Ready to catch some fish in Berkeley? Amethyst Fishing Charters is here to make it happen! Captain Johnathan will be your guide.

Around here the fishing is popular for Halibut, Striped Bass, dungeons crab trips, and rock cod Lingcod

On these trips, it's common to drift or troll. When crabbing we tend to do combo trips meaning we go crabbing and rockcod fish in the same day. Check our schedule for availability.

Trips with Amethyst Fishing Charters are great for kids, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Johnathan operates a 57' Sportfishing with space for 25 passengers. It has all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

Seeker Rods and okuma reels are supplied for you for a small fee, but feel free to bring your own setups if you like.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Before coming aboard, it may be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Don't leave home without sunglasses, a hat, sunblock, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
