Iโm a local thats fished my adult life in San Diego. Brought my friends from the midwest for their first time ocean fishing.
Great communication from Sam to start with. the Islands blew out with the storm, he called and said offshore wouod be better.
Got to the dock, easy instructions. Clean boat/good equipment.
Sam and his deckhand Kai worked tgeir tails off the whole day. put us on the fish three times. My buddy caught his first bluefin ever. Hooked up a 120lb bluefin that kicked out butt for 3 hours.
Sam worked that whole three hours maneuvering the boat, putting us in the best possible position to land the fish.
I will 100% be booking with Sam again.
Great boat, even better crew, positive attitudes.
Thabk you Sam and Kai

Sam and Kai are awesome, they worked hard to get us on the fish and were patient with our inexperienced anglers. This is my second time on the water with them, Iโve also gone on large boats and there is just no comparison with the level of attention, flexibility, and fun we had on the water. They make it feel like youโre out fishing with friends and you can tell they themselves really want you to land the fish, they go above and beyond to get you the fish.
Iโm excited to go on another charter with San and Kai, I highly recommend them.

This trip was a true bucket list for me. We booked last minute in hopes to have my Dad and my Adult kids catching fish that make a true memory!
Sam was open and honest saying it was going to be very bumpy due to weather. We are familiar with SoCal boating and we were fine with the adventure. Sam made a very bumpy ocean almost comfortable even for my 76 yr old Dad. (But like I said we are used to SoCal waters)
Sam and Kai are great dudes and fish their A$@@ off. They put us on Bluefin and Yellowtail and if we were better fisherman we would have done even better!! They kept us on the water longer than we deserved and even tried hard after our time was up. Totally above and beyond!
The boat is a purposeful fish killer!
They cleaned all the fish and I would 100% fish with these guys anytime!

My family and I had an amazing time. First, Capt. Sam is easy to communicate with and answered all my messages within minutes. The boat is super clean and tidy, and they have really nice gear to use if you donโt have your own Seeker rods and Shimano/Penn reels). Second, Capt. Sam got us on fish and was flexible depending on what we wanted to do. My middle son pulled up a bucket list fish - big olโ black sea bass (in MX). Lastly, Capt. Sam and the crew were so polite, helpful, and accommodating. One of the deckhands paid special attention to our youngest - making sure he was doing things right, getting him out of tangles/trouble, always asking/making sure he was having a fun time. You have lots of choices - mine will now always be Guardian Charters.

Great day with Sam and Kai, but the bluefin werenโt cooperating despite schools of tuna, bait balls, dolphins, and whales all day.ย Still, managed to land a 25lb bluefin! Will be back, these guys were relentless to get us in the fish, stayed longer just trying to get that next bendo.ย Clean and comfortable boat too!
