About Your Trip

Write this AYT for a Rock Fish / Ling Cod Combo

We believe every individual deserves the VIP treatment aboard each of our vessels and we strive to bring excellence, knowledge, and fun to all of our charters. Aside from helping you to catch once-in-a-lifetime fish, our main goal is to help you create memories that you and your group will cherish for a lifetime.

WHERE WE FISH
THE BAY
The Bay is one of the largest estuaries on the West Coast and is teeming with diverse species from Chinook (King) Salmon, Striped Bass, Halibut, and Lingcod to Sturgeon and more than 11 species of sharks. Many of these guys stick around all year, making it hard to pick a bad time for fishing in the bay.

OUTSIDE THE GOLDEN GATE
Deep-sea fishing remains a classic choice among anglers looking for Salmon, Rockfish, Lingcod, and more beyond the Golden Gate. You can also troll for many tasty treats, or try mooching for Salmon, Halibut, and Striped Bass—a slow, serene form of drift fishing that local fishermen find especially rewarding.

WHAT WE PROVIDE
Aside from our 20+ years of fishing expertise, we provide the following:

● All bait needed for targeted species

● All of the necessary gear (rods and reels)

● Fish cleaning

All we need YOU to bring is your valid **California Fishing license, and any food or drinks you would like to enjoy throughout the day! The rest is on us!

**Your fishing licenses are not only requested but REQUIRED to leave the dock.

Just like our previous customers have said, our charters are unforgettable! You will experience top-notch professionalism perfectly paired with fast-paced action, humor, and fun. We are not only here to provide you with an incredible fishing experience, but the opportunity to make lifelong memories!

A day on the water with Captain Joe starts with meeting at the dock at your designated time, followed by a quick check of your fishing license, and a brief description of the day’s agenda before it’s off to our favorite fishing spots. As your charter comes to an end, we will clean your fish upon return to the dock. With Captain Joe at the helm, you can relax, focus on fishing, and leave the rest to the experts. Book your Rockfish and Lingcod combo trip today and discover why Captain Joe’s charters are some of the most popular in the area. The fish are waiting, and so is your next adventure!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
