Fish Invader Sportfishing offers private and group fishing charters out of J Dock, Berkeley Marina, California, led by Captain Stephanie — one of the few female 6-pack captains in the Bay Area, Merchant Mariner Credentialed, insured, and certified in First Aid and CPR. The boat is a custom-built 2021 290 Sea Raider repowered with twin 250 Honda engines, featuring a diesel heater, standup head, new dinette, SiriusXM, and a custom lighting and sound system — a genuinely family-friendly boat for anglers of all ages, and a 2022 FishingBooker Anglers’ Choice winner.
Trip options span a genuinely wide seasonal range: Salmon ($330/person), Halibut (April 1-September 1, $250/person, all gear included), Rockfish and Lingcod ($310/person), Tuna (Bluefin and Albacore, $500/person, run out of Berkeley and Fort Bragg), Shark ($250/person), Sturgeon (catch and release, $250/person, out of Pittsburg Marina), Crab Only (November-January, weather dependent, $200/person), a Super Combo trip (Bay $300/Ocean $350), and dedicated Ladies Only trips ($250 Bay/$300 Ocean/$500 Tuna). Tours, whale watching, special events, ash spreading, and company team building outings round out the offerings.
Every trip is genuinely all-inclusive beyond fishing license, food, and beverages — rod rental, fish cleaning, and tackle are never charged separately, with a professional deckhand, custom Okuma/Seeker/Stubborn rods, Avet and Okuma reels, bait, tackle, weights, a large cooler, bottled water, relief bands, a diesel-heated cabin, and a standup head with curtains all included.
For anglers of any experience level near Berkeley, California looking for a family-friendly, genuinely all-inclusive salmon, halibut, tuna, or sturgeon fishing charter, Fish Invader Sportfishing offers a well-equipped operation with Captain Stephanie.
