Last Meal delivered exactly the personalized charter fishing trip I hoped for to celebrate my “little” brother’s 50th birthday—and then went above and beyond. We booked the Crabs + Dabs trip, and while unseasonably large swells made locating our crab pots tricky, the crew still put us on plenty of rock and flat fish and provided amazing on-deck service.
What really impressed us was the extra effort from Captain Stephon and deckhand Ryan. After the charter ended, they went back out to recover some of the pots and later dropped off the crabs we managed to catch right at our rental home in Carmel. That kind of dedication turned a great day into an unforgettable experience.
There’s more to the story, but all you need to know is this: we’ll definitely be booking with Last Meal again—hopefully very soon!

I have been wanting to take the family on a fishing trip for a while and have contacted a few different boats to make sure that it would be a good fit.  My hope was to get the kiddos hooked on fishing so that they could be my excuse to go fishing whenever I want to :). 

Captain Stephon and his deckhand definitely went above and beyond what I have ever experienced.  From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, they made sure that we were extremely comfortable and well informed.  Putting us on the fish for non stop action certainly helped, but feeling like you were being cared for like family really made this trip stand out from all of my others.  My family is already trying to figure out when we can go again, goal accomplished!

My recommendation would be to book with Last Meal as soon as you can, you will not be disappointed.

Thank you to Captain Steph and Ryan! What a awesome Saturday. They got us on Crab and Multiple different kinds of Fish. They were great listen to ours and our guests concerns when it came motion sickness and were willing to adjust to different waters. They made it all about us! We will planing our next trip asap! Cant wait to hang out with them again and again!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had an absolute blast fishing in Monterey, CA! We hauled in a great variety—Lingcod, Rock Fish, Sanddabs, and some beautiful Petrale Sole. Huge shoutout to the guide Stephon—he was amazing, super knowledgeable, and made the whole experience smooth and fun. The weather was perfect, and even on a “slow day,” we were pulling fish up every few minutes, and we hit our limit. I was already checking dates for my next trip before we even docked. Can’t wait to get back out there!

We came home wirh a couple dozen cravs and pounds of filleted fish (despite the cold and very wet weather). Steph and Ryan were great.  Full of smiles and making it fun for all.

appreciated you both. we will be earing crab for every meal for the next several days!!
