Please keep in mind this is a tentative schedule -- we change our minds every once in a while and switch things around, so it's always a good idea to make reservations in advance and/or to check in with us if you're interested in going out on a particular day; additionally, trips are "weather and interest permitting". We do our best to keep this Schedule as up to date as possible, but, just like the weather forecast, it is a guide, not gospel. Walk-ins are always welcome as long as we are running and have room, but without contacting us we cannot guarantee we haven't made a change in our schedule. Please be sure to call, NOT e-mail, if you need to reach us on a weekend or within 24 hours of a trip to make sure there have been no change in plans!

And last but not least, although our online schedule usually lists trips for just the next month or two, we schedule trips seven days a week during the fishing seasons and take reservations months in advance...just because a future date is not listed doesn't mean you can't make a reservation...feel free to call or email to check on any future dates you may be interested in that aren't listed yet.

The following definitions explain the status of our trips listed below:
"Available" = we are still available for either private charter or open reservations.
"Open" = we have reservations on the books for the type of trip indicated and have space available as long as we're not already full; make sure to check with us to see if we still have openings. If a trip is listed as "open (but full)" we can place you on a standby list and will notify if you an opening occurs.
"Private charter" = one group has reserved the boat exclusively for their group only, so we are not available.
"SWLT Rockfishing" = also known as "Shallow Water Light Tackle Rockfishing" - coastal rockfishing trips where the Queen of Hearts specializes in fishing areas as shallow as conditions permit using as light of gear as conditions permit. By law we can fish no deeper than 180 feet above Pigeon Point but by choice we often fish areas no more than 20 feet deep in an attempt to put the "sport" back into sportfishing.
