Had a great experience with Captain Mark!My father, younger brother and I are all new to deep sea fishing but have always wanted to go. This was a great and memorable experience! We did a full day of fishing and we caught a total of 30 fishes ranging from Yellowtail, Dorado, and Bonitas. Our total fish weight after was about 110lbs. Mark offered to prep our fish but seeing how late it was and how many fish we had caught we took it to a nearby processing shop he recommended. They put us as priority and we had it next day by 10am. Our total packaged fishes weighted about 75lbs total.During our trip he provided us with a plethora of snacks, drinks and good company. We even got to drive? the boat for a bit too! Its fast and thrilling. We got to see not one but TWO pods of dolphins up REAL close. Also a whale breaching as well.Mark helped set us up for success and a good time. We recommend Captain Mark and look forward to fishing with him again in the near future!
My dad and I had a wonderful time with Mark who was an amazing captain for our half-day trip. We caught about a dozen rockfish and even caught a ~20 lbs halibut at the end which was awesome! Mark even dropped off our halibut to get processed and vacuum-packaged. The experience was fantastic and I would definitely choose Boundless Boat Charters again!
Absolutely wonderful!!! From the moment we telephoned to book this adventure until we stepped off the boat at the end of the day, Captain Mark felt like family! We did a sunset tour last year and a 3/4 day trip this year. Both experiences were perfect! The ease, professionalism, and care that Mark embodies makes fishing with him a great pleasure! We caught many fish and many different varieties! He knows where to go! It was a fantastic day ending, of course, with whale and dolphin sightings! Such a fabulous experience. Thanks for a memorable outing! Your the best! Next time...full day!!
Book Now! I did twice with Friends and FamilyLast week I went on two trips with Captain Mark and Boundless Boat Charters. They were both fantastic and very different:First trip was on Saturday. It was a 3/4 day guys trip with friends. Captain Mark and the three of us headed out to Mexican waters in search of Tuna at 6:30 am. We were told it would be difficult, and it was. Captain Mark was willing to tailor our trip to what we wanted. We traveled 100 miles looking for Tuna. We saw Tuna and a lot of activity! Mark taught us about searching for foamers, diving birds, and kelp patties. We landed a yellowtail - Hamachi - if you like sushi. Awesome experience. We had a great time and will go for the big stuff again during peak season. Fishing with Captain Mark was just like hanging out and fishing with a friend. However, he was very professional, safe, and had a clean well maintained boat. I would go again... and I did...My second trip was 3 days later. I joined Captain mark for a 1/2 day family trip for some rockfishing with my wife and five year-old son. Just when I thought it could not get better, it did. Captain Mark catered to our son. He made the trip all about him. He let him get the bait, scout for birds, and knew exactly when to have our guy reel in the big fish. My son is addicted to Wicked Tuna. Captain Mark became quickly aware of this and played along with our son every step of the way. We kept 16 rockfish (including a gigantic Vermilion) and released three others. After wearing out our arms, Captain mark thought we should slow troll for some yellowfin. This was awesome. Our son got to hear the line zip out of the reel just like on Wicked Tuna. We did not get a yellowfin, but saw a lot of action. We caught 4 barracuda and 2 calico bass. One barracuda was even poached by a sea lion while reeling it in. Finally, on our way back we drifted for halibut while Captain Mark cleaned the fish. Just as we were getting ready to leave the rod tip bent down and we had a 10-12 pound halibut on the line! Unbelievable day with my family. Memories we will never forget. Memories you will never have if you do not book a trip.Like I said, I did not think things could get better than having a guys trip (hich Captain Mark dis a fantastic job catering to us). But, Mark was outstanding with the family. All families who want a fishing experience need to hire Boundless Boat Charters. Prior to both trips Captain Mark stayed in contact via Text. He answered all of our questions.There will be many more trips with Captain Mark in the future, and my son is still talking about him!Thank you,Aaron
Mark is awesome!! I scheduled a fishing trip for my husband and son and they had a wonderful time with Mark. I am pregnant so I could not join the fishing charter but I know I would have had a blast as well. Mark was so helpful when we had to reschedule our vacation and this charter for a later date due to a scheduling conflict with sports. We would love to return to San Diego and fish with Mark again! Five star experience.
My husband and I decided to book based solely on past reviews and I’m so glad we did! Boat was clean and Mark was very knowledgeable as well as accommodating to our needs. I’m a lefty and without hesitation he brought out a left handed rod. Already talking about our next trip and will recommend to all our family and friends. We will definitely be repeat customers.
Incredible fishing experience with Mark on Boundless Charters! For a 6 hour fishing stint with BBC- Mark met the needs of every person of all fishing experience and skill levels. Mark was hopping most of the time, with one of us catching a fish and the other hooks needing baiting, I felt sorry for the guy. Starting with a yellow tail, then a whole bunch of rockfish, mackerel, and to cap it off- a Six Foot SHARK! Holy buckets! We had about 30 pounds of fish to take home (once filleted)! What a delight that trip was. We will be coming back for more with you Mark! Thank you for a memorable day!!
Mark was awesome! Took my friends and I on a memorable experience. Knew the spots and we had a blast catching some really cool fish! Definitely coming back.
Wow...wow ....wow.Captain Mark is great. Took my son out fishing for his 10th birthday yesterday and the fishing was superb. This was a moment to remember for he and I forever . In the words of Jeremy Wade from River Monsters...Fish OnThanks MarkT.Berry
We went out on a 1/2 day fishing trip and had an awesome time. Mark was wonderful with our boys and just a great captain overall. Very friendly and outgoing. The boat was well kept and Mark had everything we needed. Our family would highly recommend booking your next fishing outing with him. We will definitely be going out again!
I could not have had a better first experience deep sea fishing. Mark was AMAZING! As someone who did not know what to expect, Mark took the lead! We found our perfect kelp, Mark threw the line, and yellowtail after yellowtail were caught on the line. It was a CRAZY day! He delivered such a personal experience I felt like we were friends from the beginning. I cannot wait to go out again! The amount of fish caught will keep me full for weeks! Thank you, Mark, for a exceptional day fishing!
We can’t rave about Mark enough. He knows how to pilot that vessel like the captains of big cruise ships that don’t accidentally sink their ships! He’s very relaxed and helpful with teaching everyone how to fish at sea, and has a wealth of knowledge. It was fun right from the start: met the boat early in the morning, got live bait, went out to sea and after 20 minutes and a couple moves we got bites. Between three of us and Mark, we got 26 nice sized fish to fillet up and take home. We’ll definitely be back (so long as Mark will have our rowdy shenanigans)!
My wife and I booked a full day trip with Mark on our honeymoon and could not have asked for a better experience! The tuna bite was slow, but that didnt stop us from having an incredible time. Mark is professional, personable, and an all around great guy. He even put in some extra time to make sure we caught a few fish before heading back to shore! At the end of the day youll be looking to book again! Hands down, this was one of the best days Ive ever had fishing, and I spend a lot of time on the water. I come from a family of fishing guides and know a great guide when I see one - Mark is that guy. Well be fishing with him again. Thanks Mark!
A review long overdue for one of the best fishing experiences Ive ever had. The trip was back in October 2020, Captain Mark adhered to covid-19 safety protocols first and foremost.Captain Mark was extremely patient and gave a lot of advice when asked. He was extremely friendly and easy to have a conversation with. You could tell that he put in a lot of effort to make sure the experience was enjoyable for people of all levels of fishing experience.We were lucky enough to have a good day of fishing and caught different varieties of Rockfish and a Yellowtail.The trip was so well done, we booked a second trip already this year! Thank you again!
Awesome fishing trip with Boundless Boat Charters and Captain Mark!I booked the half day fishing trip with my two sons whom I hadnt seen in 18 months due to Covid. We had a blast! Captain Mark was terrific during booking process and called us the night before to confirms plans and the dock pickup and he makes the entire process easy, friendly and enjoyable. His boat is perfect for 3-4 people, totally fitted out with the latest and very cool fish finders, fishing equipment and we caught 13 fish, a number of which were 5-8 pounders ...bass and vermillion. Mark is a super fun guy to spend 6 hours with and is an extremely knowledgable, professional captain and fisherman. He clearly loves what he does and he quickly joined in our boys banter and ribbing as guys/gals do! :)) He cleaned all of our fish and gave us tips for cooking them. The fish were absolutely delicious for the fish tacos we made. Highly recommend a fishing trip with Boundless Boat Charters and Mark.
Perfect day on the ocean with Captain Mark! Great experience for all ages (our group age range was 8-78). I wish I could give 10 stars!
We had a great time fishing with Captain Mark. It was absolutely amazing to experience San Diego for the first time from the ocean all while catching some epic fish. We caught massive halibut, seabass, and rockfish, all of which we later ate. It was insane value for money.I definitely recommend getting onboard, Captain Mark runs a great san diego fishing charter and is your man if you want a fishing adventure.
Captain Mark was amazing. We went fishing for YellowTail and oh did we find YellowTail. While searching for Kelp Paddies, we hit the motherload of Kelp Paddies and caught so many YellowTail that we hit our limit with just 1 Kelp Paddy!Captain Mark was not only patient but wonderful with teaching us on how to fish. From baiting to reeling. He ensured that we learned the process while also keeping us safe.I highly recommend Captain Mark to go fishing again. Cant wait to head out to go deep sea fishing again!
Best charter service very professional very outgoing had a blast great boat great gear best price I found for a 9 hr trip Mark is an amazing guide and delivers above and beyond words cant describe how awesome this guy is hands down the best .......highly recommend him for any trip anytime 😀
What a great experience on boundless boat charters! The half day finishing trip was amazing! Mark is incredibly knowledgeable about where the best fish are. The boat was clean, he made sure we were safe. Mark had a COVID-19 survey and I really felt great out there it was liberating after working from home for 7 months. We caught some big fish and Mark knew what they were before they came out of the water! He also cleaned up the fish! Total gentleman and professional. Go fishing with boundless boat charters.. excellent experience.
We decided to contact Mark at Boundless Boat Charters based on all his great reviews. He exceeded all of our expectations! Mark was extremely friendly and professional. They boat was very clean and well kept. Ours was a family trip including two of our teenage sons. Mark quickly built great rapport with our entire family and was a blast to spend nine hours with. He was also very patient while teaching and helping us. It was obvious that he is extremely knowledgeable of the waters and he constantly was checking the water temps and depths to make sure we were in the best possible places to catch fish. While great fishing has some “luck” involved, Mark’s expertise and knowledge is what made the day and paid off in pounds!! We caught yellowtail, halibut, huge rock fish, barracuda. I highly recommend Boundless Boat Charters. We, for sure, will be booking more trips soon!
Wow!! I can’t say enough amazing things about Captain Mark. From the very beginning with booking our trip, until the very end, dropping us off at the dock...he was truly a professional. He worked so hard to provide us with an amazing day, even including a Marlin!!! Mark is fantastic and we will be back! Nice clean boat, all the right fishing gear, and tons of patience and positivity. I don’t know if you could ever find better.
Super Successful half day out with the family! Mark is an amazing captain! He is super helpful, efficient, and really great at judging when it’s time to venture off to the next hotspot. We all caught and had the fish filleted right there on the boat. Needless to say the fresh catch was delicious.It’s tough to beat a beautiful day on a boat, great company, fresh fish and a shark sighting! Total catch: 6 rock fish and 2 benito’sThank you Mark! I can’t wait for my next adventure with Boundless Boat Charts
I cannot say enough good things about Boundless Boat Charters and Captain Mark. I booked the half day fishing trip as a birthday surprise. We had a blast! Captain Mark was very prompt in responding to calls and emails and was readily available for any questions I had during the booking process. Captain Mark makes the entire process easy and enjoyable. His boat is well taken care of and he takes pride in his profession. We had an amazing day out on the water. Mark also gave us the option of having our catch processed so we could bring it home with us. A great experience all around that I would recommend to anyone traveling to San Diego!
Mark had to deal with four inexperienced people and never was impatient. Always- ALWAYS-looking at our lines, helping us out, fixing tangles/ birds nests, etc. Very kind and professional. Boat is great. Clean. Well kept. Snacks, drinks available. All the gear is ready to go. Worked very hard to get us where the fish were. Great day.
This is our second trip with Captain Mark and OMG my son caught a 32 pound halibut and daughter caught a slew of beautiful smaller fish. That’s ultimately 100s of dollars of fish we went home with. Actually Mark is the one that deserves the credit for those but made my kids feel emboldened with their accomplishments. Then Dolphins playfully swam in our wake. It was truly magical and memorable! If you’re considering booking a trip...absolutely do it!
We had an amazing time with Mark. He was fun to be on the boat with and worked hard to get us on the fish. Couldn’t have asked for a better day! When my daughter complains her arms hurt from reeling heavy fish in so much....THAT IS A GREAT PROBLEM!! Thanks again Mark!!
THIS IS THE ONE!!! We’ve tried a lot of fishing charters in San Diego, and nothing compares to going fishing with Captain Mark! We prefer a more intimate and personal experience, where it feels like a day on the water with your favorite uncle... and that’s what we get with Boundless every time! Mark knows where all the fish are, he’s calm and confident on the water, and is amazing with our kids! He’s ignited a passion for fishing in our family that we didn’t have before! Book it!!!
Boundless Charters hits the “Mark” 🎯 again! Enjoyed a great experience last year so rebooked Mark last week for an incredible fishing experience in San Diego. My husband and I enjoyed some action- packed fishing with our 9 year old son and 13 year old nephew. As my dad would say “that looks more like catching than fishing!” We had a heck of a haul and enjoyed the fruits of our labor with a fish fry and bake following this experience. Mark is hands on and flying from one reel to the next as we brought aboard some fascinating fish. You will love this. Book.it.now! Looking for something to connect with your son or daughter on vacation? There is nothing more satisfying than seeing their face reel in that fish! Book it!
Great Friday afternoon to leave work early. Mark was great, we caught our limit and enjoyed a beautiful sunny afternoon with cold beer. It doesn’t get much better than this and you won’t go wrong with Mark as your Captain. FISH ON!
A magical experience with my teenage son. Something weve always wanted to do and so glad we went with Captain Mark. You wont find anyone better!
We have gone with Mark from Boundless Boat Charter 2 years in a row. Our 7 and 9 year old boys asked when they could leave Disneyland, so that they could go fish with Mark. Mark goes out his way to make it a great experience! We plan on doing it again next year.
So I was lucky enough to experience this charter for a second time & each time it only gets better...even in off season. Captain Mark Mihelich is professional, personable, & a true fisherman through and through. Clean boat, safe family friendly Captain made me feel like I was meant to be there every second. Only the highest of recommendation for a party of 4 hands down from this guy.
Mark was incredible. During our two days of fishing he was prepared, educational, friendly, and ensured our entire trip was a blast from start to finish.
My wife, myself and my brother in law had a great time going out on a half-day trip with Mark. We had a fantastic time catching plenty of rockfish, lingcod and yellow tail! Weve been on charters in various countries and Mark is one of the best captains that we could have chosen to spend half a day with cruising around the beautiful waters of San Diego. He is very patient, humorous, and put us onto some great tasting fish. He has a clean boat with hand sanitizers onboard which we appreciated due to whats currently going on.
Mark was an awesome boat captain and made my buddies 30th Bday an absolute blast! Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water and We would all recommend Mark And Boundless 100x’s over, thanks again brother!
Amazing experience! funny guy mark def made the experience better!
Had a great 10 hour tour with Mark. Got to see beautiful scenery and catch tuna. Mark was very friendly, and extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area.
Amazing trip, great guy!!! Can’t wait for the next trip
