Fish Berkeley operates guided fishing charters out of Berkeley, California, offering a range of ocean trips for anglers and day-trippers. The outfit runs two named vessels — the fast, newly re-powered El Dorado and the New Easy Rider — to serve short and full-day outings along the Marin Coast and farther offshore. Fish Berkeley lists potluck-style trips on both the El Dorado and the New Easy Rider, giving groups the flexibility to bring and share food aboard. The company offers a 10-hour salmon fishing trip aboard the El Dorado, led by Captain Robert Gallia, a named captain associated with those outings. For anglers seeking deep-water species, Fish Berkeley operates an 11-hour rock cod trip on the New Easy Rider that travels beyond the Farallon Islands to target large lingcod and rockfish. A focused 5-hour Crab Only trip runs along the Marin Coast aboard the El Dorado; participants help pull pots and sort Dungeness crab. Trip listings note practical details: some outings recommend or require a fishing license, picnics or lunches on board, and gratitude toward deckhands who assist aboard. Fish Berkeley appears in third-party features and listings that present trip summaries, vessel names, captain attribution for El Dorado salmon trips, and the core species targeted. All trip descriptions and vessel names are presented to help prospective anglers choose the right charter from Berkeley, California.
