Captain Fisher and his first mate went above and beyond to ensure we had a great day on the water and plenty of fish in the boat. He was upfront and honest, even recommending that we switch to a morning trip for better action, and worked with us to make it happen. Thanks to his hard work and flexibility, our group had an excellent experience. We look forward to booking with him again in the future!

Thank you Capt. Jason for this fun and amazing experience our son and his friends had. He has been non stop talking about all the fish they caught! They had so much fun, and he is planning the next adventure with you!

Words can't fully capture how incredible the trip was with Captain Eddie and Mongo. I've been on plenty of fishing trips, but this one was by far the best. Fishing is all about the experience, and if we catch something, it's a bonus—and with Lucky Strike, they nailed it. We got to relax while Mongo handled everything, but when the poles went off, it was time to fish! We reeled in Spanish mackerel and spinner sharks, and for me, catching the sharks was an unforgettable thrill—the power of the fight is something I'll remember. The friendly and welcoming crew made the trip even better. My girlfriend caught the biggest fish of the day—a massive 74” spinner shark—and we can’t wait to have it on our wall this Christmas!

Had an incredible day on the water with 4G Guide Service! Captain Stevie's passion for fishing shines through in every aspect of the trip. From the moment we boarded the boat, it was evident that he was committed to ensuring we had the best possible experience. His expertise and professionalism made for a memorable outing, and we can't wait to book with 4G Guide Service again!
