Terms and Conditions

On all of our trips there will be bottled water. You are free to bring any beverages you would like, but please, no glass bottles. Please be prepared with a hat, jacket, sunglasses etc. Life vests will be provided upon demand and for children under the age of 13. Even though our waters are calm most of the time, motion sickness medication like Dramamine or Bonine are recommended (please take the night before, and when you wake up before the trip). There are no guarantees you will catch fish, but our success rate is extremely high. If you are unsure of anything listed, feel free to drop us a line.

Please make sure to purchase your California fishing license with the “Ocean-enhancement” (enhancement not needed for 1-Day license)  and Lobster Card if Hooping at night before the day of the trip. Licenses can be purchased at any fishing tackle shop, Walmart, Big Five, or Turners sporting goods. They can also be purchased online at https://www.ca.wildlifelicense.com/InternetSales/CustomerSearch/Begin 

Please make sure to have a screenshot of the online license before departure. Children under 16 years old do not need a sportfishing license, but DO need Lobster cards if hooping.

  Our rates are reasonable and cover expenses like boat payments, fuel, insurance, maintenance, docking fees, rods, reels, tackle, bait, hoop-netting gear, and safety equipment. Please tip accordingly. It is customary to tip 10-20%. Tips are greatly appreciated by our captains.

  When you book an “x-hour fishing trip,” you may think you will be hooking fish for x hours. It is important to realize that if you book a four-hour trip, you’ll be away from the dock exactly for four hours. This time includes the time from the dock to the fishing grounds, fish filleting, and getting back. All charter boats operate this way. This might seem like lost time, but you can use these moments to get acquainted with the crew, and to get a rundown of the fishing techniques you will be using.

  No shows will not be refunded and are subject to forfeit. Refunds are available 14 days prior to your scheduled charter date. Refunds / reschedule within 14 days of scheduled trip will result in a credit for future trip. Only one discount per charter, per day. 

All Prices based on 4 guests, additional charge up to 6 Total. Please review when booking.
