Best fishing boat in the bay area. Captain Mike and his crew really work hard and make every trip special. I have fished with them 10+ times now and every single trip has been a success. I will be a customer for life with the amazing folks at the Lovely Martha.

This is the second time my family has fished with Lovely Martha and both times have been great fun for everyone. The crew was great both times. They work to get you into the fish and if the fish cooperate, you’ll get your limit.

I’ve had the pleasure to be on the Lovely Martha a few times over the last several years! I’ve caught salmon and Halibut and maybe a cold. It is the highlight of my trip to SanFrancisco and I’m always singing praise about them.Great experience and Willie and Captain Mike and Captain Frank if your lucky are the best in the business. The Lovely Martha is a beautiful boat named after their beautiful Mother! Fish On!!

I have been on this boat a few times for halibut and this time crab. Got limits of crab and fish. This year saw his son and some other young deck join the team. SF boats are smaller do there is no Galley for food. The dock has a ladder to climb so you need to be careful.
