Ship's Log
What To Expect
Meet Captain Sean and first mate William at the dock on Marina Blvd. Rods, reels, tackle and live bait are already rigged and waiting.
We work the productive grounds around Berkeley and Richmond, inshore, nearshore or offshore, depending on your trip and the season's bite.
Salmon, halibut, striped bass, lingcod, rockfish, sturgeon or shark. Whatever's running, we chase it until lines are tight.
Every fish you keep gets cleaned and filleted dockside, free of charge. Bring a cooler, dinner's coming with you.

Captain Sean and deckhand William put their group on fish all day and were patient and helpful from start to finish. That's the kind of crew that makes you want to book again.

Donna R., CaliforniaThe halibut and striper weren't biting that day, but the captain kept the trip fun and got the group onto leopard shark instead, a first catch for this angler, with great service throughout.
Jessica R., California, repeat anglerA repeat customer describes a friendly crew, live bait gathered quickly, and limits on bass reached before the fog even lifted, followed by a lucky halibut soon after.
