My recent charter experience was absolutely dreadful! The captain and deckhand (Charles and Ben) displayed zero patience and seemed more interested in their constant smoking breaks than our enjoyment. Fishing was a disaster because the boat never stopped moving after we dropped our bait, rendering any catch impossible. To top it off, the boat itself was cramped and in a deplorable state of filth. This was undeniably a nightmarish outing, and I strongly advise against choosing this charter. Such a waste of money.

I am sorry you think that way Jen, I talked to the others that were on that trip with you and there were no complaints. In fact they said they had a good time. I never had a complaint like this before. Just look at all the other reviews. Call me and I will see what I can do to help you feel better.

We went out on this charter and had a wonderful time. The crew was very friendly and helpful. The captain was very good and knew where the fish were going to be when the tide came in. There were five of us fishing and we all caught our limit of Striped Bass and Halibut. I give this experience an A+.

Amazing day! We booked an afternoon trip for my brother-in-law's birthday party and had a picture perfect day on the bay with Captain Dave and crewman, Mario. Best captain and crewman to go with; they took us to "hot spots" and were highly profession ensuring we had a great, great time and caught a ton of fish! Next time we go out on a trip it will be with Flash Sport Fishing with Captain Dave and crewman, Mario. Thanks for the perfect day! -Scott

Hi Steve! We had a wonderful day on the water with captain Charles and Ty. They were both GREAT! We were only there for a half of a day but we had 7 keepers and hooked many others. All halibut (which was our target fish)
Btw: hang on to Ty. He was outstanding, personable, patient and very helpful the entire time!
Thanks again

Went shark fishing in the San Francisco Bay with Captain Steve on the Flash II. Had a great day Sat 4/2/22 and everyone on the boat caught sharks. My Grandson who is just 10 caught a 53 1/2" leopard shark. The Captain and deckhand were amazing. A+++

My friend and I went on a girls trip Oct 3rd with captain Charles and deckhand Ben. The atmosphere was fun & relaxing. We knew immediately we chose the right boat.
Ben was a helpful, informative and super fun. We caught two halibut in a few hours. The captain suggested we change route and go land some sharks before we head in. Everyone on the boat had a great time reeling in these monsters. I was astonished at the adaptivity of the pair. Ben's change up routine from halibut to shark was on-point.
My favorite part of the whole day was Charles sense of humor. If you have thin skin, this probably isn't the boat for you. We enjoyed his jokes, a few cold ones and a beautiful day in the bay.
We will definitely be repeat customers!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Hi Autumn,
I am glad you had a lot of fun. This is why I like small groups, you can change to other types of fishing during your trip. Charles can be a funny salty dog. He has been around a long time.
Let me know if there is any thing else we could do for you.
Thanks again

Fantastic shark fishing experience on a 6-person charter in the Bay. Captain Steve and his hand John were just excellent with our kids, and they knew exactly where to go throughout the day as tides shifted, making sure we had nonstop action. Laid back and professional at the same time. Can't recommend them enough!

Hi Chang,
I am so very sorry this happened. This was something outside of our control. Vessel Flash has a relatively new Cummins diesel engine and at the last minute just before your trip she broke down. Captain Charles tried desperately to find room for you on another boat but everyone was booked. Captain Charles tried to find a mechanic to get us up and running as quickly as possible, however she ended up down for about 5 days. The engine is only a year and a half old and only has around 1500 hours on it. This should not have happened but it did. Again I am sorry this happened and in retrospect there is nothing else we could have done.
