WHO WE ARE

Dana Wharf Rod and Reel Club is an exclusive 50-member southern California fishing club that was established in 1982. We are an ultra-limited load club that specializes in multiple day charters in the waters of southern California and northern Baja. We fish hard, responsibly and ethically. We especially pride ourselves on promoting the catch and release of calico bass. We measure, tape and release calico bass and award the club’s most coveted trophy at the end of the year for the largest calico. We also aggressively fish for tuna, yellowtail, white sea bass and halibut and award trophies for each species at the end of the year. 100% of DWRRC members are also CCA members.
