I wanted to share the experience I had with Diamond Sportfishing and Captain Kyle! WOW! We…read moregathered at the dock super early and although we thought it was early, Captain Kyle was up and at'm ready to fish! He said we were in for an adventure. The great thing about DSF is that they provide all the gear necessary for your catch. We were going out for Tuna as Bluefin are now found in the waters off the west coast, we were all pretty excited to go fishing. All we brought with us was food and drinks, having everything else included was a bonus. In the event we caught anything, they'll cut, clean, gill and give us fillets. The boat ride was awesome, no one got seasick thank goodness, there's ample seating inside and out. It was super foggy in the early morning, but cleared up by the time we started. I've not been on a fishing boat prior to this trip, and I was blown away at how scenic and beautiful the water was out there. The bright sunshine gave the water a super bright blue appearance, it was cool. Captain Kyle and his deckhand got everyone rigged up and ready to fish. The Captain is youthful and took his time answering questions and giving advice. His mixture of humor and knowledge of where the fish were was certainly a bonus because as soon as lines were in the water we heard, " Fish On!" That first Tuna took everyone on board including my son Parker to reel it in ( Posted Picture). What a freaking rush. It was exciting watching as everyone reeled something in on the boat. We laughed, joked and had such a fun day out on the water with friends. On our way back in to harbor the Captain pointed out several whale pods swimming around the boat, it was a trip seeing them jump. We enjoyed our lunch and talked about who caught the biggest tuna. In all honesty, that first one was the biggest in my book. I can't say enough great things about Captain Kyle and his Diamond Sport Fishing. Reservations were easy as charters go out practically daily either 1/2 or full days. The waters off of California are changing, getting warmer, they're seeing Bluefin Tuna and Marlin so who knows, maybe our next trip we'll catch something epic! Overall Impression: A+

No frills fishing. We were on Lady K but this captain also runs Lady K. We didn't have much…read morecommunication with the captain on our day, but the deck hand handled everyone very well. Not condescending or chatty as his focus was on the rods with 10 people on the boat. Captain was also fishing but not for himself, handed over the rod to a guest who hasn't landed a fish. Appreciate the attempt at a less crowded spot, didn't work out and went back to where the party boats were. I believe we would have gotten our boats limit, but there were a few kids enjoying the experience and were not paying too much attention to their poles, but that's OK. Few missed opportunities, but that's fishing. I know numbers can impact the reputation of the boat without really knowing the context. I will look exclusively to make a trip with Diamond or Lady K. Other boats that I have been on had arrogant deck hands and not so friendly captains.

On the boat were new anglers! We all limited out on stripers, and we caught a lot of halibut! I can't wait to go on her boat again! And her dog nova was a bonus, the kids loved her!

They took us out to the center of about a dozen whales and those guys were having a heck of a day. We saw everything from feeding to fluking. We got so close we could see the barnacles on their tails. They were swimming under our boat! I thought it would be scary but it was just fascinating. Captain Smitty was funny and he really knows his stuff. He taught us a bunch about the whales, birds, and seals we saw. We had a great time and will definitely be booking again. Minimum of 4 people to book, and be sure to take your anti-nausea meds if you're prone to sea sickness--Captain Smitty gets you really close to the action, which means waves. Two in our group took dramamine and were just fine.

Even though the crab were hungry, we had enough bait for our three hour fishing experience. Our group was at the pier with the Golden Gate Bridge as the background, it was a clear day with a nice breeze, a perfect San Francisco day. Bonus was that this was on the Sunday of fleet week so we had front row view of all of the planes flying overhead (most fly over the golden gate to start off with) Our target was rock crab but our group only caught dungeness (babies and medium size), so unfortunately no keepers. We all had a solid enough understanding to be able to go out in our own though. Highly recommend booking this if you're interested in snare crabbing.

Whether you have a clear night or a little fog (like tonight), the skies are beautiful, the Golden Gate Bridge is magical, and San Francisco twinkles in the distance. The crew meets your every need with kindness, excellent service, and genuine interest in you as a passenger. They're also an interesting bunch--just ask them about themselves! Hot (chocolate!) and cold beverages are available for purchase, including adult beverages. For out of towners...Wear and bring layers. Jacket + sweater/fleece, long pants, beanie hat, gloves if you have them. Blankets available onboard. This is SF Bay 12 months a year - always chilly and the sail is worth every layer of clothing.

Over the course of two hours I saw maybe 7 people, three dogs, two joggers, and one cyclist. I had the trail mostly to myself and the birds. Heron, egrets, kestrel, duck, sandpipers and the usual hummingbirds, gulls, and crows. It was marvelous. The usually SF noise and detritus aren't there. I could pleasantly hear some classic R & B wafting across the water from a street event in in Hunter's Point. Otherwise it was just mild wind, waves, and gull cries. So refreshing. They apparently never have tons of visitors, so come here when you want to avoid the crowds of GG Park and the Skyline trails. The views across the Bay are second to none, and you get an amazing view of the SF skyline from as vantage point you won't see anywhere else.
