Santa Cruz Charters

Tom and Kai provide a fantastic fishing trip. I took some friends out for Salmon. Tom had to scout around a bit but we got on the fish and ended the day with a bunch of really big Salmon! The guys are super nice, professional and very experienced. If you want a very well run trip, this is the charter for you!

Tom did an excellent job giving us a rich new experience in our own backyard. Our group was comprised of people of all ages and experience levels and we all had a fun and memorable experience. I had no idea how many species we would be able to catch in one morning! First mate, Kai, did a great job rigging all our gear, getting our fish into the boat, and filleting them up for everyone at the end. We were so well taken care of from start to finish. I'd recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fishing-focused morning on the bay!

We had a fantastic time fishing with Mega-Bite! Highly recommended. It was our first-time going fishing anywhere, let alone on the ocean on a windy day. Captain Tom and Kai, the deck-hand, made us comfortable from the start and ensured we had a wonderful experience: from finding the right spots to fish in, to helping my two young boys (7 & 10) handle the fishing lines, instantly re-baiting them as fish were caught and moving us from spot to spot to ensure we had a productive harvest. Not to mention engaging us (even the boys) with great conversations, stories and tips along the way. Both Captain Tom and Kai are very personable, attentive and wonderful with kids. By the end of the trip, we'd caught lots of rockfish and our children were thrilled to each catch two on a line. It was a super fun first-time experience and we can't wait to go again!

Excellent charter...seriously, can't say enough great things! Had a wonderful time. The deckhand, Kai, and Capt Tom were professional, engaging, and helpful in every fashion. From assisting my kids with proper form, to handing me a rag after I "chummed" the ocean with my breakfast! These guys made the trip easy and most importantly...productive and fun! Limited out on nice lings, had a blast fishing for the bait squids, and everything else! They clearly know the spots to hit for action. Looking forward to my next trip with them.
