We used Awol Fishing to go fishing for Yellow tail. Captain Andrew and Max were absolutely incredible. Their knowledge of the fishes behavior, and where to find the led to a very successful trip. They were also very patient with us as beginner open water fishers. Such a amazing day. Thank you again guys!

We had an absolute blast! Captain Andrew took us to some great rock spots where we caught plenty of rockfish and one massive halibut. Captain Andrew was easy to spend the day with, an excellent teacher and made sure to help me not loose the Halibut! Would highly recommend going Awol ;)

Scottie is a great charter captain and a great all around guy! He put us onto some great Yellowtail and wouldn’t stop until we found more suitable spots to get our lines out! It paid off and my 11yr old nephew pulled in a nice little Dorado. I had my two sons with me as well. It was a great trip for the kids and my bro in law! We will def be back and making this an annual trip if not more often than that with Scottie! Thank you!

Another great trip with Brothers Sport Fishing! This was our second time out with Scotty, chartering an offshore 4 pack. This time we were going for tuna and we had a high bar to beat after the 20+ dorado and yellowtail we caught with Scotty this past fall. Scotty delivered yet again, this time getting us on a 200 LB Blue Fin. Can’t wait to get back out with Brothers once our freezers are empty...Thanks again Cptn!

I've waited awhile to write this review to make sure it was not just an impulsive in the moment feeling. My buddies and I went with Scottie in April during what I will describe as not the best weather. Scottie made the whole experience amazing. He was exceptionally professional and a pleasure to be around. He helped those of us who got sea sick continue to have a great experience and made sure it was always about us as the clients. We will be booking with Scottie again.

We LOVED our trip with Captain Mike from Brother’s Sportfishing!!! Thank you guys, for making the dream a reality! To make a long story short: our family is moving out of California soon and my son wanted to catch a tuna before we left. I called Captain Scottie at Brothers and he got us dialed in for exactly what we wanted. Excellent communication and accommodation! He paired us up with Captain Mike Silva, who was wonderfully knowledgeable and absolutely relentless in his pursuit of the fish. He got us our tuna, a 60# bluefin! They had all of the equipment and gear we needed and Captain Mike coached us through every stage of setting up on the fish and catching them. Really a great experience. Top marks for Brothers Sportfishing!
