San Diego offers world class fishing, inshore and offshore, from the novice looking to catch their first fish to the trophy hunter looking to set a personal best record. Inshore fishing trips are shorter and focus on the bay and kelp beds targeting the various types of bass found in our local waters including halibut and bass. During the late summer months, there is even the chance for some pelagic fish like Yellowtail and Bonito. Fishing in San Diego Bay is a great, outdoor activity for the family, that will make lasting memories any time of the year. The boat provides a large, stable platform for fishing with plenty of extra room to relax , take in the views, or just watch while others try their luck fishing for the big one. The classic trawler has a comfortable enclosed cabin for protection from the elements, a full size bathroom, and room to relax or take a nap. All the fishing gear is included. Drinks and snacks are provided. All charters can be customized upon request.
As you cruise through San Diego Bay to your next fishing spot, you will pass by Downtown San Diego, the Coronado Bay Bridge, the USS Midway, Seaport Village and the San Diego Embarcadero. There are plenty of opportunities for photos of all the sights. Enjoy a unique view of the Coronado Bay Bridge as you fish under it for delicious halibut and varies bass. 'Catch' a great photo under the Coronado Bay Bridge with your freshly caught fish.
Enjoy the beautiful view of Point Loma while you stop by the bait barge to prepare for your day of catching fish. The bait barge is a great place to see our local sea lions and varies sea birds.

We live in SD and really wanted to try something new. I am SO glad we did this and we will definitely book with Kevin and do this again. Such a beautiful day and experience on the water. I was a bit afraid because I didn’t know how to fish but that was silly, Kevin took care of everything and made the whole day awesome!
Been going to SD for years and doing different activities with and without kids. This time the wife and I just went and booked this fishing trip. And turned out to be the best thing we’ve done in SD. Captain Kevin was the best and put us on different fish and different locations. Along with all that had a great tour of the bay and sight seeing. We’ll definitely recommend and book again. Thanks Captain Kevin
Excellent time out on the water! Great crew that is dedicated to showing a good time on the water while showing San Diego off. Captain put us on a variety of fish and taught us everything we needed to know in order to have an epic day on the water. The boat was very pleasant. Great views from through out the boat and easy to escape the weather.
