Operated by Captain Scottie, this fishing charter in San Diego stands out as a premier choice for anglers. Boasting exceptional customer care, state-of-the-art boats and gear, and an expert crew, it has earned glowing 5-star ratings. Captain Scottie is known for his patience with children and his passion for sharing the local waters. Originally from Orange County and raised in a fishing family, he spent countless weekends fishing with his father for Halibut in the bay and pursuing pelagic fish offshore. Now based in San Diego, he dedicates himself to offering personalized experiences tailored to each guest’s interests, whether that’s learning about Southern California’s fish species or enjoying the scenic coastal views. A recent guest shared, "Travis was an outstanding guide—attentive, supportive, and most importantly, he helped us catch plenty of fish! I had an amazing day fishing alongside my son and his two Marine friends—a truly memorable trip."
However, there were a few suggestions for improvement: having a portable restroom onboard would be helpful, as the absence made things uncomfortable. Clear communication regarding target species and the expected level of fishing experience in the listing would enhance expectations. One group mentioned being disappointed when the captain left a hotspot for another boat before they reached their catch limit, as they had assumed they booked a fully private charter but later learned otherwise.
You can cancel without any fees up to 7 days prior to your scheduled trip and the amount will be credited back to your account.
