About Your Trip

If you're an avid angler looking for the offshore trip of a lifetime, look no further than this adventure with Captain Anton! He's a true specialist when it comes to finding, hooking, and landing top-tier sportfish, including Giant Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin, and even Striped Marlin!

On this trip, you'll spend two full days fishing, with one night in between. If you're aiming to catch a personal record, this is the way to do it! Plus, watching the stars at night from out deep on the Pacific is an experience like no other.

This area, between Dana Point and Catalina Island, is one of the most productive fisheries in California, attracting pelagic predators such as Tuna as well as nearshore species such as Barracuda, Yellowtail Amberjack, Rockcod, and more. Captain Anton is en expert when it comes to hooking fish out here, and he'll make sure to put you right on the fish.

You'll be fishing aboard his 36' Blackman sportfisher. She's a real beauty, and features a large bait capacity, a refrigerated fish-hold for your keepers, Furuno side-scanning sonar, depthfinder, bunks, full onboard bathroom, and a kitchen with a Keurig coffee maker! Plus, she has a wide deck to give you plenty of room to fight the fish.

Captain Anton will provide everything you need for a blue-ribbon day out there! Just bring proper clothing and your California fishing license and you'll be set to go.

Captain Anton got into fishing from doing summer vacations on Bass Lake, and he quickly progressed from Bluegill and Largemouth fishing to ocean fishing. He's been running charters since 2015, having earlier been a commercial fisherman.

Anton's favorite thing about running charters is all the great people he gets to meet and make lifelong memories with! The techniques he uses are constantly changing, every year or even every day. On his trips, he catches everything...

Anton's favorite thing about running charters is all the great people he gets to meet and make lifelong memories with! The techniques he uses are constantly changing, every year or even every day. On his trips, he catches everything from Rockcod to big Bluefin Tuna, but by far his favorite fishing is for his bread-and-butter fish, the California Yellowtail.

Rapid Fire Guide Q & A

If you were cooking for all your friends what would you cook?
Probably smoke some meat on the traeger!
What’s your favorite band?
Probably rap honestly
What’s your favorite movie?
Out Cold!
What’s your favorite sports team?
Yankees!
What’s your drink of choice?
Anything with booze in it lol, of course after work hours!
What was your last halloween costume?
A referee
What do you want for Christmas this year?
Probably just stuff for the boat!
How did you get started guiding?
I actually started out commercial fishing, then I got hired at the bait barge here in Dana Point. Noticed I was selling bait to all these charter boats that I knew I could be better than them so I decided to go and get my Captain license and start charters as basically my "college", 18 years old.
What makes you different from other guides?
I believe what makes me different than other operations is we have fun. I think too many charter captains try to act "hard" and never really give the passengers time to feel comfortable. We want to become friends with all our clients and make life long relationships. Hence why I have so many regulars. I enjoy people, good conservations, and killing fish.
