Channel Islands Sportfishing

Channel Islands Sportfishing Center,
also known as CISCOS

CISCOS has been operating out of Channel Islands Harbor since 1963.

Deep sea fishing off the Ventura/Oxnard Coast can be recognized by several different names including ocean fishing, sport fishing, salt water fishing, and charter fishing.

With 13 boats, we have the largest sportfishing fleet to choose from on the Southern Central California Coast. Our fleet has access to the coastal waters including Ventura, Oxnard and as south as Ventura County Line near Malibu and the Northern Channel Islands including: Anacapa Island, Santa Cruz Island, Santa Rosa Island, San Miguel Island and San Nicolas Island. We offer world class, year round deep sea fishing trips that offer something for everyone, including local 1/2 day trips, 3/4 day trips, overnight trips, 2 day and 3 day outer island trips. CISCOS is located near extremely productive fishing grounds that produce Halibut, White Seabass, Sheephead, Barracuda, Yellowtail, Rockfish, Lingcod, Salmon and various other kinds of fish.

We are proud to say we are home to the State and World Record California Halibut and a fly-fishing line class White Seabass both caught in 2011.
