Fishing in general around SF Bay and just outside the gate has been off the HOOK! From drifting live bait through large schools of stripers that get party boats limits within minutes. To drifting the flats all around SF Bay for excellent Halibut fishing. Bouncing bottom outside the gate and to the Farallon Islands have been producing loads of Rockfish and Lingcod. Last but not least the California King Salmon is showing a comeback with limits coming from either direction outside the gate. Time for some summer fun and book your trips with some of my favorite charter boat Captains.
The Lovely Martha is my go to Salmon Charter out of historic San Francisco Fishermans Wharf. Not only a historic location but the Lovely Martha and the Rescino family have a long running history in the fishing business. 4 generation Captains with the 5th Generation “Jr” in training. With Captain Michael Rescino at the helm the day is full of excitement and never disappoints. Don’t forget about Willie always working hard on the deck to keep you all fishing with his 50+ years of knowledge. Every now and then the great Captain Frank Rescino joins the trip and continuously brings laughter to the deck. Lovely Martha doesn’t stop at Salmon fishing they also charter Halibut/Striper, Rockfish/Lingcod and private charters all around the bay.
Style of charter is party boat/private charter.

From when I was a kid I’ve known Captain Hayden Mullins to be the best Sturgeon fisherman I know to date. Not only does he chase Sturgeon but he also charters for Halibut/Striper, Salmon and other custom charters that offer a full meal service/beverage options from SF Bay to the West Delta. The Dragon is a luxurious sport fisher that is almost 60ft in length and 18 feet wide. Dragon Sportfishing is the perfect charter to have that luxury feel fishing and being able to watch major sporting events on one of four TV’s.
Style of charter is luxury 6pack/private charter.
