Had an absolute day on Bluebill! Deckhands were friendly and helpful, the captain put us on the meat, and the food and drinks were excellent! Highly recommended.

July 11, 2025

such a fun charter ! Jason is awesome and I will totally use for all my future boat days and events

July 11, 2025

Fished this boat with a couple friends and came home with some monster yellowtails! The crew is welcoming and helped out with one of our friends who had only fished once before. Plenty of space on the boat, had a refrigerator, and bathroom so spending the whole day on the water was awesome! Even got in a nap on the couch on the way back in.

July 11, 2025

My family and I visit San Diego a few times a year, and whenever the weather is nice, we always look forward to a fun boat day. We recently booked Bluebill and had an incredible time. The captain was accommodating with our schedule and an excellent host. The boat was spotless and had plenty of space for our small group. My husband is already planning a fishing trip for our next visit. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

The captain and deckhand were incredibly kind and hospitable, ensuring we had an amazing time. Will definitely be booking again for future occasions!
