About Your Trip

Join Captain Christian for an action-packed Halibut and Striped Bass fishing adventure out of Sausalito, California, from March through August—the prime season for both species! Aboard his spacious 35-foot “6-pack” boat, one of the largest six-passenger vessels in Northern California, you and up to five guests will have all the comfort and space you need for a fantastic day on the water. Outfitted with state-of-the-art fishing technology, a comfortable cabin, and a full bathroom, Captain Christian’s boat is designed for serious fishing and maximum comfort.

During this peak season, Captain Christian will guide you to his favorite spots for California Halibut and Striped Bass. Halibut are prized for their delicious filets and challenging fight, while Striped Bass are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs. Captain Christian’s local expertise and high success rate mean you’ll be in the best hands to land these exciting catches. He provides all the rods, reels, and tackle you need, so you can focus on fishing and having a great time.

This trip is family-friendly, and kids over the age of five are welcome. Captain Christian and his crew create a fun, laid-back atmosphere, perfect for both beginners and experienced anglers alike. You’re welcome to bring any food and drinks you’d like for the day—beer and wine are allowed, though there’s a strict no hard alcohol policy. For an additional fee, Captain Christian will even clean and fillet your catch so you can head home with fresh, ready-to-cook filets.

Just bring your California fishing license, snacks, and drinks, and let Captain Christian take care of the rest. Book your Halibut and Striped Bass charter today, and experience Northern California fishing at its finest!

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.
