Brothers Fishing Trip - Great day of fishing with Captain Mark Guillot. We went out of Lobo Del Mar and had our fish prepared by them, very good and very reasonably priced.

5/5 Stars for Chapo! - SPI Excursions truly stands out for their exceptional service, and Captain Chapo is the epitome of what makes this outfit special. With his deep understanding of the local marine environment, he ensures an educational and thrilling fishing experience. The boat was impeccably maintained, and all the equipment was top-notch. Captain Chapo's dedication to making sure everyone catches fish is unparalleled; he goes the extra mile to see that each guest has a memorable time. I wouldn’t think twice about booking with them again and can’t wait to return next year. Many thanks, Captain Chapo, for an outstanding adventure! -mike podein

5/5 Stars - **5/5 Stars for SPI Excursions** I had an absolutely fantastic experience with SPI Excursions, thanks largely to Captain Chapo. His knowledge about the local waters and fishing techniques is unmatched. The boat was spotlessly clean, and all the equipment was new, which really added to the overall experience. Captain Chapo goes above and beyond to ensure everyone on board not only catches fish but also has a great time doing it. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again and am already looking forward to returning next year. Thanks again, Captain Chapo, for an unforgettable trip! -Collin

Chopo is GREAT! - Chopo is GREAT! He knows the bay very well and took us right to the fish. It didn't take anytime at all before we started catching fish. He is very patient, gives great instructions, and easy to get along with. I would not use anyone else in the future.

It was too windy. We also weren’t told that the first day we booked would be canceled due to wind until after 9 PM when we made multiple efforts to contact them. We spent extra money and time on fishing license for the day when we didn’t go. The communication should have been better.
