Guam - The Guam Fire Department made the call this morning to now classify the rescue efforts for two fishermen missing at first beach in Ipan, Talofofo to a search and recovery. GFD Spokesperson Captain Andy Arceo says ocean and land searches are ongoing.

The Coast Guard suspended their search yesterday. The team is now ending Day 4 of the search for Joe Castro and Evan Paulino, who went net fishing Saturday evening. The two were among the group that did not make it back to shore.
