Book Your Trip NowNew to sportfishing or just want to know more about fishing aboard the Right Hook? Here are answers to our most common questions.
The Right Hook is a Bay Area boat fishing the San Francisco Bay, the Delta, and the Pacific Ocean. The exact Marina depends on where the fish are biting — you'll get the meeting point and time with your booking confirmation.
It varies by season. Striped bass and California halibut in the Bay through spring and summer; sturgeon in the Bay and Delta in winter and spring; ocean and river salmon when seasons are open; sharks year-round. Our captain knows what's running and will put you on the best bite.
Yes — every angler 16 and older needs a valid California fishing license. You can buy one online at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) website, or pick one up at most outdoor and tackle shops before the trip.
All rods, reels, and tackle are provided and rigged for the species we're targeting. You're welcome to bring your own gear if you prefer — let us know in advance so we can match it to the trip.
Dress in layers — Bay weather can change fast. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, non-marking shoes, and any food or drinks you'd like. We'll handle bait, tackle, and a fish bag for your catch.
Three Northern California marinas — the Round 2 runs out of a different one depending on the season.
