Dana Point Jet Ski & Kayak Center

Since 1978, Dana Point Jet Ski has served the South Orange County and surrounding area in sales, service and rentals. Over the years, DPJS has continually grown and improved by expanding our facility and services to keep up with customer needs. At the end of 1997, DPJS seized an opportunity unequaled by any other dealership by relocating the entire operation in Dana Point Harbor - making us the only West Coast dealer on the water. Because of our direct water access, we're able to take you literally just steps from our showroom to the water and put you on the watercraft of your choice. Where else can you go any time of the year and ride before you make that important purchase decision

San Clemente Island is one of Southern California's prime destinations for Kayak Anglers. Productive kelp, secluded coves and numerous boiler rocks make this a must visit destination for anglers in search of Yellowtail, White Sea Bass and all the trophy Calico Bass action they can handle. This fishery is available only by boat and upon arrival kayak anglers truly have nearly unlimited access to excellent fishing grounds. Call our office if for more details or to make arangements for a rental kayak.

Baja Freelance/Open

Fish

This is a great trip for those that may be new to long-range fishing. It is a sample of the relaxed on-board atmosphere that is the halmark of extended trips. On these trips, the difference is the boats range as two full days on the water offers flexibility when it comes to putting you where the fish are.

Multi-Day trips give you a glimpse of what it is like to spend both day and night at sea in search of offshore game. Target species include Albacore, Yellowfin Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Dorado and Yellowtail. Many afternoon bites accelerate into wide-open evening bites creating the ultimate offshore experience. Another advantage to multi-day fishing is waking up deep within the fishing grounds which maximizes the chances of an early morning or 'grey bite'. Fishing conditions permitting, these trips may also visit untouched Baja coast hotspots such as Isolete, Colnett, San Martin Island and the surrounding pinnacles.

Includes all meals and non alc. drinks.

This year Izorline joins us for 2 and 3 day trips. All trips offer plenty of time to explore the offshore grounds. Guests on this trip are treated to free line fills from the guys at Izorline which is especially appreciated when the fish are biting.

This is a great trip for those that may be new to long-range fishing. It is a sample of the relaxed on-board atmosphere that is the halmark of extended trips. On these trips, the difference is the boats range as two full days on the water offers flexibility when it comes to putting you where the fish are.

Multi-Day trips give you a glimpse of what it is like to spend both day and night at sea in search of offshore game. Target species include Albacore, Yellowfin Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Dorado and Yellowtail. Many afternoon bites accelerate into wide-open evening bites creating the ultimate offshore experience. Another advantage to multi-day fishing is waking up deep within the fishing grounds which maximizes the chances of an early morning or 'grey bite'. Fishing conditions permitting, these trips may also visit untouched Baja coast hotspots such as Isolete, Colnett, San Martin Island and the surrounding pinnacles.

Timing is everything, and on trips of this length time is definitely on your side. These trips will fish deep in Mexican waters targeting Albacore, Yellowfin Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Dorado and Yellowtail. For many years Guadalupe island has been the go-to place to fish for large Yellowfin Tuna. Fish in excess of 100 pounds are not uncommon in the fall as well as record size Yellowtail. Likewise, Cedros Island and the San Benitos islands offer what may be the best Yellowtail fishing on the planet. Limit style fishing with many fish pushing 40 pounds is not uncommon at these destinations.
