Fernandez Charters

Private offshore and inshore sportfishing aboard the Kate Elizabeth. Year round trips — because the seasons change, but the fishing never ends.

About the operation

Private charters, run right

We are based out of Seaforth Marina in Mission Bay, San Diego, and we offer a wide range of private charter options with our specialty being offshore and inshore sportfishing. We run trips year round as the seasons change, and we target every species found in our waters.

During the open season for California spiny lobster — roughly October through April — we run hoop net trips to get you on the most coveted lobster on the planet. Passenger safety is our primary objective on every single voyage.

  • Offshore & inshore

    Tuna runs to the banks, or a full day working kelp, structure and the flats.

  • Lobster hoop nets

    October to April, night trips for California spiny lobster.

  • Safety first

    Passenger safety is the primary objective throughout any voyage.
