Daveys Locker is probably the better of the two sportfishing docks in Newport Harbor. I have generally only taken the 3/4 day freelance and the full day thunderbird. The crews are very good and the boats are nice. I would highly recommend them especially if you are going to go for some yellowfin right now they are doing a good job and staying out later than they usually do to get more fish in the boat.
One warning sometimes they run a second 3/4 day boat called the Caliber. Don't get on that boat. It has a cruising speed of like 2 knots you will spend most of your day just getting to the fish.
To some up I would definately recommend Daveys Locker if you are going to fish the Newport area.
