"Thanks for a great and successful day fishing last Saturday! I'd like to complement you and Mike on a very well delivered day of fun, professional fishing recreation. Your boat was comfortable and that trip was operated with our safety and enjoyment as primary objectives. You and Mike were personable and helpful and responded with good humor and candor to our inquiries and often bad, silly jokes! We wish you all successes and thank you for a great day of fishing with lots of good memories and yummy fish to take with us on our way. We would recommend you and your charter services readily and would welcome you to use any of this message on your website or in any other promotional material for your charter service. Best regards to you and Mike." Ali,Doug,Steve and Terry from Florida (June 2011)

"I chose your Charter Service because of a recommendation from a previous client of yours and I would very much like to pass that recommendation on to anyone reading this. Joe, you went above and beyond the call of duty to find us a day during our vacation that the weather would allow us to go out. The fact tidbits and stories that you and JR offered us were both informative and humerous. You both made the trip very much worth while. Good fishing, good company and a good time. The next time we come, Diana wants to see a whale or catch a marlin. We will be sure to look you up." Chuck & Diana from Michigan (Dec 2010)
"Thank you again for the great time fishing. My boys could not stop talking about the great time they had and made it very clear that the fishing was the best part of our vacation." Richard from Wisconsin (Nov 2010)
"Thank you again so much for taking us out on the sea. I think we all had a blast. Now we're trying to determine how to plan for the next trip. HA HA HA. Your adventure won over Disney World. Biggest problem I'm dealing with now is that I can't get the husband to hush up. He even is talking about the "BIG ONE" he lost. So, again thank you for your time and please be sure to let JR know that we are very appreciative of his work that he also did. Its great when you have people that really know their business well and they come across very knowleagable." Janet from Colorado (Nov 2010)
"Thanks for the great time. Ethel and I will remember this anniversary forever. Please pass on our thanks to Tommy as well, he was great." Ed from Florida (July 2010)
"Had a great time today. I think we will make a point of fishing for Mahi Mahi in October this year so you will hear from us in a month and a half .Thank so much." Rebecca and Juan from Florida (July 2010)
"On July 3rd you took the time to save the day!! There was some confusion in regards to who was going to take my family on our off shore charter that weekend. After making 7 weeks early reservation in advance with an another charter and them knowing that I had family coming from two states as far as North Carolina. They canceled and you took us aboard. The 1st mate "GP" was the best and I just wanted to send you these pics.... of the trip. Once again thank you for a great trip. We will be seeing you soon. Yours Truly," Doug from Florida (July 2010)
"...just wanted you to know you're the best, had a great time..." Vernon from Kentucky (June 2010)
...We had a great day, and really enjoyed fishing with "the Joes." Thanks so much for taking such good care of us!" Mike from Atlanta (June 2010)
"Captain Joe, Thanks for
allowing me the oppertunity to practice my dinosaur calls on Sunday. I
just wanted to let you know we had a great trip and it was a lot of fun. All of
us had a good time even if I did spend most of my time "looking for fishes.
Thanks again for another great trip." Michael from Florida (May 2010)
"Thanks Joe, Sam and I had a great time, there are lots of fish stories being told right now!" Steve from Minnesota (April 2010)
"I can't tell you how much my Dad enjoyed the fishing trip. It was exactly what I was hoping for. It is the last time that he will be able to do something like that and he knows it. All he could talk about is how he out fished me... This trip included ages from 13 to 85 and both of you were very accommodating. We could not have had a more enjoyable trip. Even my sister Bonita 'bonehead' thought about getting up and catching a fish but was afraid if she moved she might get sick. Next time it won't be ten years before I do this again. Thanks again for the memories and please tell JR thanks for everything that he did. If anybody ever asks for a reference, I would be more that happy to oblige." Derek from Kansas (Aug 2009)
"Joe, I just can't tell you how much fun I had on our trip. What a perfect choice to book our excursion with a captain that knew where to go to catch the good stuff. I am sorry it took so long to get these pics to you but I could not get them on my laptop at the hotel. Once again thanks for a wonderful time." Mike from Missouri (July 2009)
"I would like to thank you for the great time we had with you on your boat. Dawson still talks about his fishing trip and tells every one about the hammerhead shark, dolphins, sea turtles and of course the Bonita and the King Mackeral he caught. Your hospitality and patience with my son was terrific and I thank you. When we come back to Florida someday I will definately look you up! Thank you, P.S. The Mackeral was delicious!" Carl from Michigan (April 2009)
"Thanks Joe, Had a great time regardless of the rough chop. If you ever need any reference let me know. Thanks Again" Ryan from Ithaca, New York (March 2009)
...we just wanted to let you know that we had an awesome time. I know most fishing days are not like that the one we had where you couldn't even get the line out for trolling before a fish would hit it, but everyone thoroughly enjoyed reeling the fish in as fast as the bait hits the water. You were a great captain, very personable and definately knew what you were doing. Thanks again for such a great time and thank the mate. He did a very good job as well, especially fileting all of those fish! Next time we are doing a fishing trip, we will give you a call." Jeff from Orlando (Feb 2009)
"We had a great day out with you and Tommy, thank you for the trip. Even though we didn't get into them heavy - we all had fun and had some good family time out on the water. Tommy is a great mate and you a great captain." Bill from Orlando (Feb 2009)

You put us on fish all day.....it was a fantastic experience reeling in the big ones. Your Mate Tommy really knows his job and between the two of you created memories we will not ever forget. Tommy's sense of humor and yours kept us laughing all day. You made us feel as welcomed as family.
