We have a great trip with Captain Al!  Communication was great from the moment we booked until we stepped off the boat.  We knew what to expect - what if anything we needed to do such as licenses - and we were excited for our trip to start.  We caught fish right away and Captain Al’s knowledge of the bay led to a day of fishing we’ll remember for a long time.  We had initially thought we would book a charter to chase yellowtail - we went this route instead favoring steady action over a...

I can highly recommend the 4 hour bay trip for anyone with kids looking to get some fundamentals.

My son and I had the BEST time ever with Diamond Dog Charter and Captain Al — hands down, an unforgettable experience!

We had a great day fishing with Al and Jax!  Al did a great job getting us on the fish while being very realistic about our expectations.  We caught a lot of fish and rarely went more than a few minutes without a bite.  This is a highly recommended fishing trip in the San Diego Bay area.  We stayed in the harbor which made for calm waters and an enjoyable experience.  Thanks!

Al was an excellent captain and put us on fish right away. he even called to reschedule us to a better time to catch fish since our original time would have not been great for fishing.
