California, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedOn the fish
11 Hour Trip – Catalina Fishing on August 1, 2026 • 6 adultsCaptain Harry and his first mate Alek were awesome. They asked us to trust them to pick a spot and boy did they. we caught probably about 100 fish or so. We kept 33 fish i believe and caught 3 yellowtail, one was about 20 pounds and another about 30 pounds. They were attentive and taught us a lot about how to fish, very patient. Equipment was great. also excellent communication from start to even after ending the trip. I highly recommend you come here. thank you Captain Harry will do again in near future.
Daniella Lyustin•California, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedThe Greatest Experience Ever!!!
6 Hour Trip – Local Fishing on April 4, 2026 • 2 adultsAbsolutely incredible experience. 100/10, no question. I went in not really knowing what to expect, and it completely exceeded every expectation I had. Harry and Alec were so knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely kind the entire time. You can tell they really care about what they do and about making sure everyone has an amazing time. I learned so much and had an unforgettable day out on the water. I would recommend this to anyone without hesitation — already can’t wait to go back!
Aasta Y•California, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedIncredible Experience!
6 hour Lobster Hoopnetting on January 3, 2026 • 3 adultsThis was honestly one of the best experiences I've had. We didn't know what to expect since it was our first time, but Captain Harry and his team, Alec and Pat, knew exactly where to go and what to do. They were professional, kind, knowledgeable, made sure we were all comfortable and safe, and were the absolute best hype crew. Even though the evening was cold and wet, they made it super fun and memorable. Not only did everyone in our group hit the limit of 7 spiny lobsters per person and were able to take home a total of 21 lobsters, but there were also hitchhiking spider and rock crabs that we took home too, AND we got back to the docks before 10pm. We expected to be out there until midnight, but it was an amazing haul. We were pulling lobsters out of the hoops nonstop. I know we won't score like that every time, that's the beauty of this sport, but I will absolutely do this again with Captain Harry and recommend him to anyone else who wants to give lobster hooping a try! I've got friends and family who are super jealous and asking when I'm going again, so they can tag along. Definitely recommend bringing a bit of food and something hot to drink since it can get chilly. Bundle up in layers and wear nonslip shoes too. The boat was clean and had a toilet, soap, and a sink to wash up. I'm glad the crew consistently kept the boat clean throughout the trip, and we didn't have to worry about stepping in bait or other ocean debris around the deck or into the cabin. We didn't know what we'd catch, but we brought a cooler anyway, and thankfully, we did. So I'd recommend bringing something to store your catch. If you end up catching a bunch of stuff, you’ll have a cooler in your car ready to go. Long story short, I’ll do this again. 10/10 recommend!
Harry Weinstock•Los Angeles, CA, USMember since 20265.0VerifiedPerfect trip!
8 Hour Trip – Local Fishing on August 2, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childmy group was originally going to do the island trip but because the local fishing around San Pedro was so great we decided to do that instead, and I’m glad he recommended it because almost every moment we were hooked on something, he had a lot of great spots, and we even hooked a yellowtail! Harry and Alec are a great crew and such a fun time fishing with them 10/10

Harry made sure to let us know what things we needed to bring. the crew made the trip so incredible. really hoping to book another trip in the future!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Capt. Harry's father got him into the sport at the age of three. He was amazed how a three-year-old kid would sit patiently and wait for a bite. That's when he said, 'He's got it'. Since then, Capt. Harry was hooked and that passion and dedication to learn and grow has never ended.He became a pinhead and then a deckhand on the boats up north learning different techniques and cutting fish as well as absorbing how to be a good captain like his mentors. With over 22 years of experience and knowledge you are assured to have the best guide by your side . Customer service is key on his boat. The captain wants you to have a great time and to catch fish! He's sponsored by Okuma to provide all your gear. He'll also tie and supply all your tackle and bait so all you have to bring is food and warm clothes. Capt. Harry started a cooking and fishing show called Boat Burgers in 2019 showing the world California's fishery and amazing food on the water. They recently upgraded their boat adding more comfort and speed on their list with a 35' innovator sportfisher yacht .
