Highlights
Outing Highlights
Big Tuna, Big Fights
Southern California tuna deliver explosive runs and sustained fights; trips target bluefin, yellowfin and skipjack so anglers can chase top‑tier gamefish in productive offshore water.
A Fully Rigged Sportfishing Boat
The Salty Pleasure is equipped for offshore action: bait tank and fish box for live bait and storage, GPS navigation and a fish finder to dial in productive structure, and a 150 HP Yamaha for reliable runs.
Choose Your Day — 8, 10 or 12 Hours
Flexible trip lengths let you match endurance to ambition: shorter days for focused marks, longer runs when the fish are spread wide and the bite demands time on the water.

The boat’s electronics and live‑bait setup keep you in the zone while the captain handles navigation; when the bite comes, it’s rod‑bending runs, teamwork on the rail, and the rush of bringing a powerful tuna alongside before she’s iced and boxed.
