About this business

Specialties When talk turns to striped bass in San Francisco Bay, Captain Jim Smith is inevitably mentioned. He's developed the most intimate knowledge of the habits of the striped bass within the bay and along the coast. His ability to predict where the fish will show up -- and when -- is uncanny. When that ability is paired with The Happy Hooker, a Coast Guard certified 56' modern fiberglass boat with heated cabin, stove, color TV, and galley space for 20 people, the result is the best sportsfishing excursion on the Golden... read more

Always a good time on the Happy Hooker! I left with a 35” Ling Cod, multiple rock fish and 10 (limit) Dungeness Crab!

The only captain and crew I go out with. They are incredible with all ages from my 80 year old dad to my 8 year old daughter. They work hard to get you on the fish and make the day feel like a party. I think the captain and the crew enjoys it as much if not more to help others catching big fish than catching them themselves. I started with 1 private charter 3 years ago. Then did 3 last year and I think I’ll top out at 7 this year. I am happily hooked on sportfishing because of them.
