Had an AWESOME day out on the water! This was me and my buddys’ first time ever with this service, and ever targeting Rockfish and Lingcod. Cap’n Sean and his entire crew (special shout out to Alex) we’re absolutely fantastic. They were knowledgeable, knew the right spots, knew how to work with people of all skill levels, and most of all… knew how to have fun doing it! I would and will recommend this charter to anyone. You will likely be a little exhausted at the end of the day as it is pretty active catching fish and balancing on the sea (for those who aren’t used to it) can take a bit out of ya. Everyone limited on Rockfish and several Ling were caught as well.

Sean and the crew were awesome, fun to be around, and played damn good music. Very helpful to my boys (even though they are allegedly my adult kids.) Full limit for everyone on crab and fish! I had fun on my last charter with another company in Ft. Bragg, but the whole family and I had a BLAST with these guys.

My family had such a great trip fishing on the Telstar! My son Taylor Oswald booked this trip for us while we were visiting in April. My husband and I are from Fort Bragg but moved to Idaho in 2015. All the years I lived in Fort Bragg (55 years) I had never gone ocean fishing! Captain Sean was great and deckhand Alex was so helpful! Thank you for such a wonderful experience! We will do it again when we return to Fort Bragg to visit my son! Plus they did an amazing job cleaning our fish! I highly recommend them for your fishing trips!!

Our family of 4 went on a whale watch in late March and the crew was so nice and accommodating! We had been out on the water for a while without seeing a whale and toward the end, just as we all assumed we were too late in the season to see any whales, the crew heard about some whales north of us. We went quickly north and saw a pod of 4-5 gray whales. It was a great save. I’d book them again.

This was one of the most awesome experiences. The Captain knew exactly which area of the ocean to go to too locate a pod of whales. He ensured that all onboard was able to view the spectacular scenery of the whales. We got extremely close.It was an absolute amazing time.
