  On the fish

  11 Hour Trip – Catalina Fishing on August 1, 2026 • 6 adults

  Captain 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.

  the absolute best, would go again!

  6 Hour Trip – Local Fishing on July 31, 2026 • 6 adults

  had the best time. Harry and David were amazing, always ready with advice while letting the more experienced guys do their own thing and also giving full assistance to noobs (me). the boat was perfect- clean and comfortable. they had everything we need. we brought home fish ready to cook into some great meals. communication prior to the trip was great. 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!

  Incredible Experience!

  6 hour Lobster Hoopnetting on January 3, 2026 • 3 adults

  This 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!

  Perfect trip!

  8 Hour Trip – Local Fishing on August 2, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 child

  my 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
