As a young man I grew up fishing Moosehead Lake . I took advice of a local Maine Native to go out with Captain Larry Farrington (Fishin4Fun) and I can contest that this Maine Guide knows his stuff. My family, teenage son and wife had a ball and caught many lake touge , big brook trout and Salmon. It was more then just fishing it was a adventure to the highest point with Maine Humor and History of this most beautiful place . I fully suggest using this Guide and looking forward to going out again next year and years to come! TOP NOTCH

We had an amazing trip with Cpt Larry! Our family had never booked a chartered fishing trip before and it was super easy and hassle free. The trip itself was GREAT from start to finish. He had great stories, was super good with our VERY active 4yr old and great with our 3 17yr old girls as well! Best part we all caught a fish! I would highly recommend Fishin' 4 Fun to everyone looking for a chartered family fishing trip. We can't wait to go back and do it again. Our little keeps asking when we get to go back to see Cpt Larry.

After doing some research to find activities for our family vacation, we came upon the ads for Larry Farrington and his cruises. After numerous emails back and forth we agreed on a time, date and price. When I had difficulty figuring out how to place the required deposit, I contacted his office and spoke with someone - eventually leaving (what I thought) was the correct deposit. Ultimately I realized I made a mistake - MY mistake - and contacted Larry to get it corrected. His words to me? “Good luck finding a cruise.” I emailed, phoned, and the resort where we were staying even tried to straighten in out - no response . This was a very special trip for my family - our first vacation after my completion of treatment for breast cancer. I cannot believe a business that is dependent on customers would be so rude. Such a disappointment. : (

As owner/ operator of Fishin4Fun Guide service I need to respond to Rebecca V’s allegations regarding reservations. When Rebecca first inquired I informed her of my policy regarding reservations. A deposit of $60.00 is required, which can be done on my website. She mailed a deposit to Katahdin cruise an entirely seperate tour boat. The Katahdin had mechanical issues so they returned her deposit. Only two days before she wanted her tour she called me. I explained I was now full and wished her good luck finding a tour. When her place of lodging called I informed them the same,I’m full and provided them with a fellow guide’s number who had vacancies. I’m only capable of taking one group of individuals at a time. Those with proper reservations go first. This was an unfortunate event but I will not allow my reputation to be insulted without a response. You may call Katahdin Cruises at 207-695-2716 and ask for Liz for verification of Rebecca’s reservations and the mechanical issues. Thank you.

This was the most fun I have ever had fishing! Captain Larry is wonderful fishing guide along with excellent story teller. We laughed all day and so enjoyed his company. We caught plenty of Lake trout, brook trout and several Salmon the two days we spent out on the lake with him. I would recommend his fishing guide service to anyone who is looking for a fun day with great fishing! Thanks Captain Larry!

Fishin4Fun is a perfect name! That’s exactly what you get; lots of great fishing and tons of fun! Larry is a laugh a minute. He’s got a great sense of humor along with an abundance of fishing knowledge. We caught a ton of fish; lots of lake trout this trip and salmon when we went with him last time at the end of the summer. He makes the best of any situation and has lots of great stories! A class act fisherman! Well worth the trip! Thanks Larry! Can’t wait to go again!

I had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Larry 4 times this Summer on 2 different trips up to Moosehead Lake. The first trip was with my 16 year old daughter and my nephew. Captain Larry knows the lake and where to find fish. We caught about 6 fish (landlocked salmon and lake trout). He has a great setup on his boat and there was plenty of room for us all. I booked a four hour excursion and at the conclusion of the fourth hour Larry said "you guys need to be anywhere anytime soon?" We said no and he said OK lets keep fishing and he kept us out for about another hour or so, no charge. He said he wanted to make sure we felt like we got our moneys worth! How's that for service! Kids loved it and Captain Larry has a good sense of humor. Second time at the lake was with the guys. Once again Larry knew where the fish were! We had a ton of laughs and caught 4 fish not including the ones that I released long distance. I have been going up to the lake for about 15 years now and I can tell you that for what this man charges you cannot rent a boat cheaper. He charges less and includes all the fishing gear, fuel, his time, etc. You can't do it cheaper. Bottom line-no brainer fishing with this guy......

Captain Larry took four of us on a trip to catch salmon and trout. We caught and brought home a number of fish. The Captain's boat was small but I prefer that over a huge boat with lots of people. Captain was very friendly with a dry whit we liked. The charter cost was the best I could find in the area and I wouldn't hesitate to take another trip with Fishin' 4 Fun.

Thank you Larry!!! My husband and three children had an awesome day on the water with you! Not only did they catch fish but they also have been retelling your stories. They appreciated your hard work and sense of humor! Thanks for going the extra mile. I highly recommend this company. When we come back, we will definitely call Larry!

My husband and I are on our honeymoon and went out trout fishing with Larry from fishing 4 fun. WE had a great time! Larry was very personable, funny, witty, and overall an awesome guide for fishing!

We had fun and don't regret going on the guided fishing trip. However, we only caught 4 fish in 6 hours and two were too small to keep. Larry was really nice, funny, and knowledgable. He let us stay an hour later to see the sunset and try to catch a couple more fish. Unfortunately it was a little cold and we both had to pee really bad. He keeps a bucket on the boat for people to pee in. We had two fish on a stringer and he put them in the pee bucket. I was really upset. Cool experience, but I don't think I would go again.
