Our Jurassic Park trips are long-range cod fishing adventures! Depending on current regulations, we’ll either head up the coast (nearshore) or fish out in the deep. When we fish nearshore we can also encounter sanddabs, shark, and halibut. On our deep reef trips, you’ll often encounter sanddabs, petrale sole, and blackcod in addition to rockfish and lingcod.
We may fish as deep as 450 feet, traveling anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes to reach the grounds. As the name suggests, we go farther, and the fish can get big!
We fish with live bait (when available), metal jigs, or shrimp fly/hoochie rigs tipped with generous strips of squid. Our crew is proud to hold the IGFA world record for the largest olive rockfish (Pacific snapper/rockcod)—caught right on one of these trips.
This trip can be challenging but rewarding. We’ve had anglers from age eight to eighty do great out here! To help reduce tangles when fishing deep, we limit to four anglers on the rods at a time. For those who want an easier way to bring fish up from the depths, we offer electric rod & reel combos for rent ($75 each). In shallower waters, we can fish with six lines down at once.
A Jurassic Park trip is truly a bucket-list experience—a day you’ll be talking about for years.
