California Fishing Charters, San Diego, Newport Beach, Long Beach Fishing Guides

When anglers talk about charter fishing in California they often really mean San Diego sport fishing charters. Southern California, ala San Diego has some of the B-E-S-T charter fishing in the world. No exageration, no embellishment, just down right great Southern Cal sportfishing. Anglers who have had the good fortune to experience charter fishing in California know how spectacular the fishing can be.

From knee buckling battles with blue marlin that put on aerial acrobat shows to fishing in schools of tuna that are so thick on top of the water that the water it actually appears to be boiling. Action packed fishing like this happens every day of the week in San Diego, a.k.a. the California charter boat capitol.
