Terms of Service
The ground rules. Last updated June 28, 2026.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Pacific Hook ("the Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Description of Service
Pacific Hook provides fishing intelligence for Southern California, including:
- Aggregated fish count data from sportfishing landings
- Trip schedules and availability from partner landings
- Ocean conditions (tides, sea surface temperature, buoy data)
- Solunar feeding predictions and fishing recommendations
- Boat and landing directory information
The Service aggregates publicly available data from third-party sources. We are not affiliated with any specific landing or charter service.
3. Accuracy of Data
While we strive for accuracy, fish counts, trip schedules, and ocean conditions are provided for informational purposes only. Data may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate due to reporting gaps or third-party errors. Pacific Hook is not responsible for decisions made based on this data.
4. Bookings and Transactions
Pacific Hook does not process bookings or payments. When you click a "Book Trip" link, you are redirected to a third-party booking site. All booking terms, cancellations, and refunds are governed by those third parties, not Pacific Hook.
5. User Conduct
You agree not to:
- Scrape, copy, or redistribute site content without written permission
- Use automated tools to access or overload the Service
- Attempt to access other users' data or compromise site security
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose
6. Intellectual Property
All content on Pacific Hook — including design, code, text, and graphics — is the property of Pacific Hook and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce or distribute content without permission.
7. Third-Party Links
The Service contains links to third-party websites (booking sites, data providers). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of these external sites.
8. Limitation of Liability
Pacific Hook is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any damages, losses, or injuries resulting from use of the Service, including but not limited to fishing decisions made based on our data.
9. Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Changes take effect upon posting. Your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of updated terms.
