Shark Trips!

Fly-fishing for mako sharks is a unique experience. Without a doubt, San Diego offers fly-fisherman, of all experience levels, the best opportunity in the United States to target mako sharks up to 200 pounds.

Our summertime shark fishing trips offer fly-fisherman the highest percentage shot at an angler releasing a 100lb fish "On The Fly" in the U.S. That's right! Your odds are better of catching a big shark on a fly rod with us than a tarpon, sailfish or marlin anywhere in the U.S., east or west coast! Click HERE for more info...
