Experience the bountiful waters with Kraken Sportfishing! Located in Mission Bay San Diego, our departures provide optimal access to an array of fishing opportunities, from vibrant kelp beds to offshore hotspots. Our seasoned angler, Captain Leng Bai, will impart his extensive knowledge to enhance your fishing experience.

Captain Leng offers a diverse selection of shared and private charters, customizable to your preferences. Regardless of your skill level, we have something for everyone. Novice anglers or families can opt for exciting yet budget-friendly shorter trips to nearby waters, teeming with Halibut, Calico Bass, and Rockfish. Seasoned anglers can embark on a full-day adventure to battle oversized Tuna!

Our fishing vessel, the "Kraken," is a spacious 29-foot 2004 Grady White Islander, accommodating up to 6 guests. Powered by twin Yamaha 4-stroke 150 HP outboard engines, it is equipped for various fishing styles and furnished with top-quality navigational electronics to guide you to the best fishing spots.

Captain Leng employs a wide range of fishing methods, including deep-sea fishing, live bait and lure fishing, sight casting, and spearfishing. By utilizing a combination of these techniques, you can target an assortment of species, such as Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Yellowtail, Halibut, Sea Bass, Lingcod, Sheephead, and Rockfish.

For spearfishing enthusiasts, prior experience and your own gear are required. If you prefer traditional fishing methods, our captain has equipped the vessel with grand-slam outriggers for trolling. We provide Penn, Phoenix, and Calstar rods paired with Penn, Daiwa, Okuma, and Accurate reels.

Your trip includes all necessary bait and tackle, and snacks and drinks are available on board. Please note that a customary 20-30% gratuity is greatly appreciated. If you have booked a same-day trip, kindly contact the captain immediately.
