Book with Darryl Spivey
Santa Barbara is calling, and there's a fish out there with your name on it! Let True Blue Adventures guide you on an epic angling journey. Captain Darryl, with his extensive experience on these waters, will share all the secrets of the local fishery with you.
These bountiful waters are home to a variety of prized catches including Calico Bass, California Sheephead, Mahi Mahi, Halibut, Lingcod, Rockfish, White Seabass, Squid, Bluefin Tuna, Yellowtail Amberjack, and more.
You'll have the chance to target your dream catch using various techniques like spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or perhaps something more specialized to this area. Plus, any fish you catch during the trip that fall within the legal limit are yours to take home - the crew can even clean them for you. Just make sure you have a cooler ready in the car!
Your adventure will unfold aboard a 24’ Sea Chaser, capable of accommodating up to 4 passengers. It's equipped with outriggers and all the necessary amenities for a successful fishing expedition. Additionally, there's a toilet onboard for your convenience. Rest assured, all the fishing gear you need, including rods, reels, tackle, and lures, are provided. Live bait is also available, just be sure to check with the captain if you prefer to catch it yourself.
A skilled First Mate will be there to assist you in reeling in your prized catches. It's customary to tip the Mate 10-20% to show your appreciation for their help. You may need to purchase a local fishing license prior to the trip, and it's wise to inquire with the captain about any species that may be off-limits or require a special tag.
True Blue Adventures welcomes families and offers child-friendly trips, so why not turn it into a fun family outing? Don't forget to ask about child-sized life vests if needed. Remember to bring along some sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Refreshing drinks will be provided, though alcohol is not permitted. Light snacks will also be available onboard.
