Just trying to get a feel for total costs on our end if we were to do it. Then I just have to talk my wife into it haha...

If you enjoyed your trip and the guide works his butt off for you regardless if you catch or not I think 25% is fair. No difference whether it's their rig or not in my opinion. Your charter fee pays for the boat and your tip pays for the guides hard work.
