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

Had a great time on Friday. Fished coastal entire day. Many limits of rock fish. More lings caught than I’ve ever seen before. All the fish were caught using live anchovies, pure genius on the boats part, as I’ve never used them for rockfish/ ling cod before. Fantastic bite. Also a boat load of keeper halibut taken. Skipper was on the fish, as usual, and the deckhand, Greg, was his usual magical self. Always expect first rate fishing and service from this boat and crew. They never disappoint and work hard for you.

I took my two youngest sons out for some epic fishing on the Pacific Dream today. Captain and Crew are First class. They took us where the fish are at and we caught Limits of Halibut. My 11 year old landed the biggest fish and claimed the jackpot money which made an already all around great fishing trip.. one that will will be cherished in our memories forever. If you are thinking about booking with these folks then stop thinking and DO IT!! You wont be disappointed
