Trophy Bluefin Charter San Diego
Built for anglers chasing the fish of a lifetime.
There’s a reason the Trophy Bluefin Charter sits at the top of the Brothers Sport Fishing lineup. Giant Pacific bluefin tuna are in a different category from anything else in Southern California waters. Fish pushing 200, 300, even 400+ pounds. Drag-burning runs that last minutes. The kind of raw, overwhelming power that makes every other fishing experience feel like practice. This trip is how you get to them.
12-hours dedicated mission:
- Full Day: 7:00a to 7:00p
This charter runs specifically for bluefin. A charter built around them, with the gear, the approach, and the captain’s knowledge to make it happen.
This is a Private Charter
Your group, your boat, your experience. No strangers, no party boat crowds, no waiting around. Just you and your crew on a fully equipped vessel working San Diego’s shoreline.
The San Diego Bluefin Fishery
San Diego has become one of the world’s premier bluefin tuna destinations.
The fish are here. Pacific bluefin migrate through Southern California waters and have been showing up in serious numbers and serious sizes in recent seasons. The grounds we run are legitimate. These aren’t rumors or maybe fish. This is an established, world-class fishery.
A Captain Who Knows How Bluefin Think.
Bluefin tuna are also brutally smart. They’re leader-shy, boat-shy, and will make you earn every bite. When they do eat, you need a tackle that can handle what happens next. Your captain on the Trophy Bluefin Charter knows the presentations, the tackle requirements, and the behavioral patterns that convert bluefin from sightings to fish in the box.
Gear and Rigging for Bluefin
This trip runs on larger vessels, the 25 Bahia and 28 Parker. Yamaha outboards, Seeker Rods, Shimano Reels, Simrad GPS/Sonar/Radar, and oversized bait tanks with 3–5 scoop capacity.

Extra Cooler Space
These boats are set up for big fish in offshore conditions. Your catch is iced the moment it hits the deck.
Safety above USCG (U.S. Coast Guard) minimums
Safety above USCG (U.S. Coast Guard) minimums on every trip, commercial life jackets, radar, three VHF radios, including an emergency handheld, and an EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon). When you’re 30+ miles offshore on a 12-hour mission, this matters.

If You're Targeting a Specific Species
Swordfish Charter
12 Hours
The Swordfish Charter is another 12-hour deep water mission – broadbill is a completely different target and a bucket list fish in their own right.
Offshore Charter
9, 12 Hours
For a less species-specific but equally productive offshore experience, the Offshore Charter offers 3/4 Day and Full Day options targeting whatever blue-water species are running.
Coronado Islands
9, 12 Hours
And if you want to extend your San Diego fishing trip with a full day at one of the best fisheries in Mexican waters, the Coronado Islands trips are worth adding to the itinerary.
