Excel Sportsfishing

Tours & Attractions

About

USCG-compliant with a 32-foot beam, Excel Sportsfishing runs Point Loma's largest long-range sportfishing vessel out of Fisherman's Landing at 2838 Garrison Street. Dock operations route through Fisherman's Landing, the Garrison Street basin that hosts the Excel alongside the Royal Polaris, Royal Star, Searcher, and Shogun long-range fleet. Target species span yellowfin tuna in the 400-pound class -- the Excel is credited with a 445-pound record yellowfin -- plus wahoo that tear line at 50 miles an hour and yellowtail above 40 pounds, with onboard WiFi covering every passenger across multi-day crossings. Destinations include Alijos Rocks, Isla Cedros, Isla Guadalupe, Magdalena Bay, Cabo San Lucas, the Ridge, Hurricane Bank, and the Buffer Zone along Baja's offshore shelf up toward Puerto Vallarta. Anglers provision heavy long-range tackle before boarding at specialty tackle dealers such as Squidco Fishing, since 20-day Pacific expeditions require cow-tuna rod setups, heavy jigs, and deep-drop gear beyond standard coastal rigs. The most extensive trip on the calendar is a 20-day Hurricane Bank expedition chasing trophy yellowfin over 300 pounds, the class of fishing the Excel was built to host with its stateroom accommodations and gourmet galley schedule.
