Title: Help me find a West coast trip!
Post by: Gaujo on June 28, 2012, 09:00:59 PM
I will be in Rancho Bernardo (San diego) for two weeks starting July 8.  I would LOVE to go on a long range fishing trip while I was there.  Can you guys help me find a good option for a 2-3 day trip?  I will have my weekends free, july 13-15, July 20-22.  I'll be tied up until 5pm on Friday, BUT if you guys help me find something cool, I'd be glad to back my departure up and stay for a longer trip that juts into that next week after I'm done!

I've only been on the west coast for like a few weeks ever, but I hear you guys talking about some AMAZING sounding long range trips, and I would LOVE to go on one, and especially with some of yall!

PS how is it to fly with rods/reels?

Try these two boats.  I've had pretty good luck with them.  Both sport awesome and helpful crews.

They all depart Wednesday or Sunday  :(

"2 Day Open Party Trip, departing from Seaforth.
$415.00 includes permits. Open galley. Mexican
Visa if needed are NOT included. "

That's promising.  Is that a typical price?

I like fishing the American Angler.  They have a couple of 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 day trips in July.  If any of these trips fit your schedule call and ask for Lori.  I have fished many 6 to 16 day trips on this boat and it is a FIRST CLASS OPERATION.

Thanks, but none of their trips would fit :-(

That's actually a decent deal, they sometimes drop the price a bit if they haven't filled up towards the departure date.  The Pac Star is a really good boat with a great crew and they have really good food, I think the cooks name is Tommy.
You can compare the price to the BigGame90 out of H&M landing they do simular trips, but the price is usually a bit more.  But then again its a bigger boat.
