The Blue Heron Fleet was established in 1955 by Capt. Harry Nagel. The fleet has been family owned and operated with the third generation currently at the helm. Blue Heron offers excellent year round fishing at a great price. The two vessels are the largest and most comfortable in the area. Vessels are custom built aluminum drift fishers that meet and exceed the United States Coast Guard regulations.

5.00My boys and I had a good time! We were warned that the sea was rough and sea sickness was a very possible thing. Gave us the option to refund or reschedule. We were on our last day of vacation and my son was looking forward to going out for a year so we went. Each kid went down 1 by 1 but still enjoyed the trip. My son was excited to catch a sea urchin before he got sea sick. The crew was helpful and so were some of the other fisherman. it’s nice when others help kids to fall in love with the sport of fishing! If traveling with kids just know the sea is a gamble and so is getting fish! Part of the excitement! seeing others get mahi mahi, dolphin, snapper was enough for us! Would highly recommend!

DO NOT BOOK THIS CHARTER

1.00I have booked this Charter twice. Once in Nov and once in Jan. Both times I booked on a Sunday. We drove 1 hr each way and when we arrive they say “Sorry we have to cancel because we don’t have enough people”. They never called in advance and advised us. The first time they refunded me right away. This second time they have not refunded me and don’t respond to phone calls or emails! If you really want to take this charter make sure you have a group of at least 10 or chances are it will be cxld with no advance notice. It is a big waste of time!!!!!!
