    James and his deck hand were awesome! Made the trip easy, comfortable and very rewarding. We maxed out limit so left with a cooler filled. Will definitely use him again when we come back to the Bay Area, high recommend!

    We had Captain Jeremy take us out “near shore” and had an amazing time. It was just two adults and my son who’s 10. He was great with all of us, kept us fishing, enjoyable to talk to, and we caught a variety of fish. We all wanna go again with Jeremy.!

    Trip: Long Beach Nearshore Adventure

    We had a great time and captain JT put us on fish all day. From the moment we put our rod in the water we were bringing in the fish. He explains everything to us and worked with us on the boat. It was the best experience I could have hoped for and one that me and my some will never forget. I will definitely be booking another trip with captain JT.

    JT knows the spots! Super good guy. He takes the time to make sure you understand and learn while also limiting out! If you want an active day of catching and not just fishing, JT is the guy to book with

    We had a great time. Parker was very knowledgeable and clearly experienced with the local fishery. He gave me a crash course on forward facing sonar and we used it to catch a bunch of fish!
