SD Slot Machine Charter
There's a fish with your name on it in San Diego and SD Slot Machine Charter will help you catch it! With Captain Daniel at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Yellowtail Amberjack, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), Bluefin Tuna, Skipjack Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Albacore Tuna, Pacific Barracuda, Halibut, White Seabass, Lingcod, and whatever else takes the bait.
On the day of your trip you're likely to troll and bottom fish. Capt. Daniel can also have you kite fishing.
Children are welcome, so get 'em offline and onto the water! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks for a boost of energy when needed!
Your boat for the day is a 25' Center console that holds up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.
Rods, reels, and tackle are provided. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
You might need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
A few items to bring include sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Kaysie Nielson5.0Verifieddan is the best!
5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on January 10, 2026 • 2 adultsHighly recommend booking with Dan. From the first message to the getting ofd the boat, communication was clear and easy. He’s professional but laid back, super knowledgeable about the ocean, and just a genuinely fun captain to spend the day with. He really prioritized what we wanted while offering smart suggestions and adjusting when bites slowed. We caught some calico sea bass, white sea bass, bonito, and whitefish and had an awesome time. Next time we’re in San Diego, we’ll absolutely book with Dan again.
Amanda Malone5.0VerifiedBest Captain
5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on December 12, 2025 • 4 adultsNot only did we have the best Captain but we also had the best fishing trip ever!! Caught over 50 some fish and most were species that we wanted to catch since we never been here in California. He took us right to the perfect spot and we got the skunk outta the boat in no time. If we ever decide to come back here this guy here is the one we would choose!!
Kristin Huey5.0VerifiedGreat Experience!
5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on January 12, 2026 • 2 adultsBeautiful day on the water with a knowledgeable, helpful, and fun guide. Dan was a great teacher who had lots of fun facts about the marine life and area. He will give you all the help you need, but also lets you fish on your own which is very comfortable and fun. 10/10 would do recommend!! Thanks for an epic day

Jason DickeyRepeat angler5.0VerifiedKids had a blast
5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on August 25, 2025 • 3 adults • 2 childrenTook my kids (7 & 14) on their first inshore trip. Captain Dan is a good, easy-going dude and great with kids. We fished on good equipment and had a selection of live and cut bait to choose from. Captain Dan’s style is to give you the tools and tips and offer any assistance needed, while also giving you the space to make your own bait/fishing decisions and find your own rhythm. We found the fish, got a variety of species, made good memories <core memories!>, grabbed some nice pics, and had delicious fish tacos for dinner. Great experience - would do again and recommend.

5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on August 11, 2025 • 3 adultsWe had a great day on the water with captain Dan. First order of business was safety. Dan showed us where all the safety gear was and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day. He was equally persistent on putting is on the fish. Multiple moves produced 7 different species and 19 fish overall. Dan catered to what ever we wanted to do, making sure all our request's and needs were filled. Super job Dan, tight lines, thank you!

5 Hour Trip — Nearshore on September 24, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 childThis was a great trip. Been on many different 4 hr trips. It was the best yet. Dan was great with my 9 year old. Turning him into a life long angular. This trip did exactly what I hoped for. Multiple species and lots of fish. 8 different species and 36 fish. Boat was clean, tackle was in great shape. Overall it was a blast.
