Only 1 person on the boat caught a legal size fish

It was fun to go out on the boat. However, only one person caught a single (1) fish of legal size. The boat took us to five or six different places where the captain thought there might be fish to catch. . . . nothing! My brother was visiting and I thought fishing would be fun since we hadn't fished together in over 30 years. What a big disappointment. |

While I have gone out with Dana Wharf before, and will continue to do so, as well as recommend them, I will not go out on this time slot again. The boat was packed, with a large number of kids. If you did not want to fish while dodging small children, or patiently untangle lines, the this specific package is NOT for you.
I look forward to going out on a 6am or twilight trip soon! |

The trip itself was great. The crue was fantastic. Could not ask for better. But... The girls at the check in store bad attitudes. Wanted to look at there phones instead of helping customers. It just seemed like we got in there way . One guy was in the store and he helped us out . Found out the hard way about needing a parking permit or you can get your car towed. |

A very fun trip. Not many caught on the boat, but the few that did got some good sea bass. Make sure to bring cash on the boat with you. There are some extra stuff that you will need to buy once on the boat. Example: If you want to keep your catch you need to rent a fish bag for a buck. If you want to enter the daily boat derby $12. If you want your fish cleaned at the end of the trip is a buck per fish.
Even with the few extras, it's more than worth it! Fun day out on the water even if you don't catch anything like me. |

Fishing with the crew of the Sum Fun makes it easy for the novice fisherman to have a great time and catch fish with the best of them! This was my second trip with Dana Wharf Sportsfishing, and both trips have been amazing! I can't wait for our next time as we are planning another trip soon! |

Had a good day. Caught 8 rock cod. The skipper and crew of 'Reel Fun' were very helpful and social with the fishermen and children on the charter. |

There were four people in our group and two of us caught fish, 1 each both small mackerel. According to the fish counts that we could see online it looked like they were averaging 384 fish per day for the prior 5 days and on 4/5 38 fish and then a full boat load of people we couldn't have been more then 4 miles at the most from the port and we don't even catch an average of 1 fish per person. I realized that is why it's called fishing and not catching but to only catch 10 percent of what they had been averaging the prior 5 days. |

The crew was lot of fun and always available to help untangle lines, remove fish from hooks, and share tips. Dolphins followed the wake, gulls and pelicans were never far, sailboats were whipping nearby, a tall ship was seen at a distance and paddle boarders and surfers were closer to shore. Hayden, our 8 year old grandson caught a rockfish and we all agreed to return when the water was warmer. |
