Capt has an uncanny instinct to guide the boat where you need to be, and encourage everyone to let it rip at just the right time. Chris, (his 1st Mate), is literally the best hype man you could ask for: he made us all feel like world-class fishermen, and celebrated every fish like he was family. Would HIGHLY recommend booking a trip with these guys; you won't do better than this... TIGHT LINES!! #abouttime PS my sister's girlfriend proposed on the boat and it couldn't have happened without their help!

Everyone in our group had a wonderful time and enjoyed the day on the water together. This is a top notch outfit. Every charter we've done has been a full day on their largest boat. You can't go wrong with these guys. Two seasons of successful outings together. We'll worth the price.

I didn't actually get a chance to fish with Steve, but I really wish I had…read more We were in Jacksonville for business when we discovered we had a free day. It was very late notice and we had some specific preferences, like we wanted a half day excursion and a very small group. We wanted to fish not party...well, maybe a little partying but not party boat style partying. I called countless charter companies and spoke with A LOT of people, including Captians, and Captain Steve was by far the most responsive and accommodating. He was quick to reply to my queries and was able to accommodate our request, and all at nearly 10pm the night before. We were pretty much set when the local weather started calling for possessible storms. Steve knew all about what was going on and had a strategy to see that we still got to fish, safely. And when we bailed on him, telling him we were flying back a day early instead, he was gracious and wished us safe travels. Capitan Steve is a class act and we will definitely look him up next time we are in the J'ville area. Dave PS. We were referred to Capt. Steve by "Captian Kirk" who was booked, but was kind enough to promptly respond to my voicemail and give me a couple leads.

It's called fishing not catching and sometimes you hit and sometimes the fish ain't hungry. Today was absolutely one of the best trips if not the best ever. We have had some amazing trips but captain mark, 2nd captain Alex and deck hand Brandon got us everything. Limits of yellow tail in the morning, limits of dorado by noon and capped it off with yellow fin tuna. I've been on a lot of boats but as far as I'm concerned there is only one boat to get on from here on out. FISH HUNTER. You'll never want to get on a cattle boat again.

With the help of Ted and the crew, my inexperienced friends were all able to land fish. I have to admit, it has to be frustrating for the crew to witness so many lost fish due to, well, bad fishing. I know it was for me. But the purpose of my yearly trips is to show my team why I spend so much time on the water. To them, a 20 pound tuna is amazing. Me? I'd throw it back. But this trip isn't for me, it's for them.

The crew of 3 (Lonnie, Justin and Chris) were informative, motivational, and incredibly skilled at their jobs. The owner Ted met us up and dinner to send us off and again after the trip while the guys were cleaning the catch for us to take home. The food provided was top notch as well. The crew was serious about fishing but had a great sense of humor. The captain has analogies for days and was able to simplify and explain his methodology to finding and catching fish. Expect to have an intense and rewarding trip. These guys are the real deal and were able to help even a rookie like myself bring home an insane amount of premium fish. I would recommend Cobalt Sport Fishing to everyone and will do so. Don't worry if you're a beginner they will show you the ropes but let you do the work to get the full experience. We caught so many fish and I will never forget what reeling in a massive blue-fin tuna feels like. Thank you so much guys!

I never leave bad reviews especially for fishing boats but this one is so bad I had to …read more I have fished lots of sportboats out of San Diego and have never left a bad review but this boat is so bad I had to . I have taken 2 trips on the tribute and BOTH were awful. They over book the boat with 30 passengers when it should be 20 max .. So there is no room on the rail to work to catch fish and the crew just stands around watching everyone getting tangled.. first trip we had 3 fish for 30 people. Second trip 5 fish for 30 people. Both times the other boats around us were killing it with 40 to 120 fish per boat while we got 5. Worst thing is the Owner blamed it on the fisherman saying we were outclassed by the fish. Not true. If his crew was good we should have limited out. I found out from some of his old crew that he is hard to deal with and thinks his shit doesn't stink. So much his old crew left him. So this year its an all new crew and they are very inexperienced. Which I saw first hand how bad things were. I will never fish this boat again. There is a reason why he is so cheap at $550 for 1.5 days. Its cheap because he can't demand a higher price like the bosts that catch fish. There are lots of really great boats in San Diego so don't waste your time with this one.

Paid $4250 plus meager tip. Boat was nice and fast but no toilet for our female passenger. Not one of us 6 touched a pole during the trip. The deckhand had a tough night and couldn't cast the single pole he had ready into a huge school of tuna. The kite was not rigged up after over 2 hour boat ride. Once it was finally rigged, the deckhand popped the kite balloon after roughy 45 mins of usage and didn't rig another one. We had one single trolling line in for roughly 5 mins. Never used any live bait. The deckhand and captain never engaged us and it was literally a boat ride. Saw lots of tuna swells and dolphins. A truely disappointing experience.
