  Rachel and Jack provide the best service and experience on the central coast. Their captains and deckhands know where the fish are and are able to work with fishermen of all ages and experience levels to make sure you come home with the best outcome possible. Of course, catch rates vary seasonally and customers will not always limit out, but these guys go the extra mile to make the best out of even the worst biting days. There are other great charter companies in the area, but these guys are my first choice.

  Without any preamble, I do not believe the trip should have taken place. I suppose the best way to describe the situation is as follows: When the seas are so rough that 5 of the 9 novice anglers are too seasick to fish should the boat be out there? When there are only 3 strikes and one fish landed should the customers be out there? I was warned the day before that the seas might be too rough and the trip canceled but evidently the company thought the conditions favorable. I have fished in rough seas before and the weather did not bother me but those that were sick spent 3-4 hours in abject misery. When a person goes fishing "it is what it is" but when you have paying customers, who are obviously not accustomed to ocean fishing and/or rough seas, the "go or no go" decision is a little more obvious. The captain was there to insure the safety of all aboard and manage the boat for the contract period (the delivery of services under these circumstances is questionable). The friendly and competent young lady who served as crew, did an admirable job setting/retrieving crab pots and fishing lines. It was an experience I would not care to repeat, and again, one has to ask, should the trip have taken place? The customer need to be alert to the cue's, their capabilities, and when it sounds like marginal weather.....perhaps electing to sit out the trip on shore and buy your fish at the market is a wiser choice.
