San Francisco
Fishing Charter
Charter Fishing the San Francisco Bay and Delta on a 6-Pack boat is quite an experience. Just the idea of being with your friends and family for a fun day on the water, whether it's Halibut fishing on the San Francisco Bay, or out past the Golden Gate to target Salmon, Rockfish, Lingcod, Stripers, Tuna, is both exciting and exhilarating. Whether bait fish or trolling, you also have the opportunity to fish our beautiful Delta and Sacramento waterways for our Sturgeon, Stripers, Salmon for these prestigious game fish.
Book a peaceful and exciting driftboat trip on the American River for 2. You’ll be among the abundant wildlife, smack dab in the middle of a million people that you’d never know were there. All you’ll see is just the nature and river around you, with a nice Steelhead pulling hard, dancing across the water, wanting his freedom to get back to his river. Enjoying the beauty that is fishing!

About
"Northern California is not only my home but playground for what I Love to do, FISH!!!" - Bill Clapp
Captain Bill Clapp is a licensed USCG Master. Spending 12 months a year on the water, both fresh and salt, Bill has experienced it all. Bill has been fishing the waters of the San Francisco Bay and Pacific Ocean for more than 30 years. And since moving to Rancho Cordova 25 years ago, he has also fished on the waters surrounding the Sacramento and Delta area. Being 5 minutes from the American River, Bill loves to jump in his boat, and fish with his sons for Steelhead, Stripers or Shad either wading or from his drift boat.
Whether trolling for Salmon and Stripers on the Sacramento River, the lower American, or Feather River, trolling or bait fishing for Stripers and Sturgeon on the Delta, or fishing the Bay or Ocean you'll find me on the water or doing my maintenance on the boats.
