Wahooson Charters
There's a fish with your name on it offshore of Huntington Beach and Wahooson Charters will help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Pat, bringing aboard years of professional experience.
We will be targeting Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Swordfish, White Seabass, Halibut, Yellowtail, Calico Bass, Pacific Barracuda, Dorado, and more depending on conditions. During the trip, you might be light tackle fishing, popping, trolling, or drifting with live bait. Capt. Pat also offers kite fishing. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing (bring your own gear).
If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests and as the charter doesn't carry children's life vests, please bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks and drinks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!
You'll be fishing from a 37' Freeman Catamaran that can carry up to 6 passengers. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You will be traveling anywhere from 25 miles to 100 miles offshore to the fishing grounds. Depending on conditions you will travel at 40-50 kts!
You'll find top-of-the-line Shimano reels on board. Live bait is an option, where you may stop at the bait barge to pick some up.
A First Mate/Deckhand will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Fishing licenses are required for everyone. It's always wise to bring bottled water, sunscreen and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Tim Meyer5.0Half day on Wahooson
12 Hour Trip – Offshore on August 24, 2023Booked a half day on the Wahooson with Pat Wade as captain. Was told to show up a little early as the fish were far and we needed to make a long run to the good water. We loaded up on premium sardine and headed offshore 45 miles in search of Dorado, they were in serious numbers at the time. We stopped on a kelp paddy around 6:30am and landed a couple fish after losing a few. We moved to look for another paddy and that’s when we found the “magic one”. It was absolutely LOADED! We all had fun for a few hours hooking and landing very nice quality dorado. Every fish that hit the deck was spiked, bled, and wired “Ike Jime”. We were done by 11am and headed back the barn early. Best half day of my life! Can’t say enough about my experience on the Wahooson with Pat. He truly cares about having a good time and especially fish quality. The fish I took home was some of the best quality fish of my life. I’d recommend this charter to anyone looking to fish in style with speed and comfort. If anyone has ever heard about Freeman boats, they are everything they are hyped up to be and more.
Gus Buenrostro5.0Best full day trip with Captain Pat!!!
12 Hour Trip – Offshore on September 4, 2023This is by far the best BFT trip I have ever been on! Captain Pat knows all the ins and outs of fishing these monster bluefin. He had the top of line tackle so when I was pulling in this 100#+ giant I had all the confidence that my tackle would not fail. Not only is Captain Pat funny, polite and very knowledgeable about fishing, his boat is built for slaying these big boys. It’s fast and comfortable with plenty of space to walk around and fish. I will be booking again in the very near future!
Joey Manassero5.0Full day charter with Capt. Pat
12 Hour Trip – Offshore on September 30, 2023Great experience with Capt. Pat on our full day trip targeting bluefin. Pat was able to locate many schools of tuna and set us up for success on the Wahooson. This boat is incredible and can get you from spot to spot very quickly. Also, the Wahooson is super spacious so you’ll feel especially comfortable on this boat. I can’t wait for our next trip! Tight lines!
Thomas Oram5.0One day trip on Wahooson To Santa Barbra Island
10 Hour Trip – Cod Fishing on May 14, 2023Had an amazing one day trip to Santa Barbra Island. The Freeman being the star of the show! What a bad ass boat! Incredible to get to SBI that fast in so much comfort. Captain Pat and Alec are both on point in every aspect. We wanted some quick seabass and thats exactly what we got! We were hooked up 3 hours after boarding and back home after lunch.

Mike B5.0Trip of a lifetime
12 Hour Trip – Offshore on September 4, 2023There is no better way to hunt down tuna then in a rig that cruises to the grounds at 50 knots! Great captain, flawless boat and tons of fish. We traveled across the US to do this trip and were not disappointed. Next trip already booked!

Peter Vocelka5.0Full day bluefin trip
12 Hour Trip – Offshore on October 13, 2023Booked a trip with captain Pat on the wahooson last October to take some of the company guys out. Could not have went any better, beautiful boat, knowledgeable captain with all of the assistance we needed. Even with spotty fishing reports Pat was able to get everyone on the boat a solid fish. Crew went home happy with a cooler of fresh fish. Highly recommend fishin this boat!!
