Hi,

Don't know if you remember me. My name is Bruce Schneider and I had a Marquesas trip scheduled with you in early October.  Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and we could not go.  We did go a out few days later on a flats trip with Captain David.  He was a wonderful guide and did his best to put us on fish.  Although I only caught one bonefish, it was really fun.  That first bonefish is exciting.  We saw quite a few permit but due to my over excitement, did not hook up with any.  Captain David is a fine young man and represented your company very well.  I look forward to another charter with you in the future and really want to see the Marquesas.  I would have sent this sooner, but unfortunately I lost my wife to cancer just a few weeks after our trip.  She fought it for six years and most would never know she had it.  It finally took her.  But we had a great trip to Key West together just a few weeks before she died, and I am grateful for that.  Enclosed is a picture of my fish, it was great fun.

Thanks much,"
Bruce Schneider
P.S.  Have a Merry Christmas and a great new year!

Steve,

I just wanted to email you about our recent fishing trip we took with you guys.  My name is Morgan Smith and I am with the group that came in from Birmingham from Serra Toyota.  We took 12 men and 4 of your boats out for a two day trip that was a solid hit with every one.  To a man, quotes like “most fun I’ve ever had”, “can you believe this is so much fun” were coming from every one.

 I especially want to make some comments about Dave the captain on the boat I fished from.  Matt Lawley, John McDonald and myself were absolutely blown away by this guy.  He was so easy going, and knew the answers to all our crazy questions and was happy to give them.  We told him that we wanted to try for Tarpon, but mainly wanted to bend some rods.  And that is just what we did, from sharks to the other fish we caught it was the most fun we’ve had in a long time.

 And as it turned out we were the only boat who got a Tarpon and a big one at that.  John caught this beauty estimated at about 45 lbs and over 51 inches long.  I haven’t usually went to web sites to place comments like this but I just had to post my feelings about our trip.  You guys are all professionals and we were treated perfectly.  We  had a large group of guys and I would recommend you to anyone who is planning a trip to Key West.  So thanks again, and tell Dave and the other captains about this email because we all fell the same way about your charter company.

 Thanks Again,
Morgan Smith

Absolutely exciting. We will be back and bringing more "victims" with us so prepare the boats. We have fished all over the Keys with many different Captains and Capt. Dave was the best. He knew where the fish were and got us on them quickly. My son says that this was the best trip we have had and really liked fishing with Dave. We all had instant repoire and had a great day on the water from the moment we left the dock. Thank you so much... We showed others the pics around town, passed out your business cards and told them they couldn't go wrong ! I am especially grateful to Dave for giving my son a great day and the opportunity to catch the lemon shark. Many captains are all brag and no fish. The rest of out family can't wait fro our next trip and be able to fish with you again.  Thanks again!

Dear Capt. Steven,
It’s been a few weeks since my wife and I went out with Capt. Luke for a full day of flats fishing and I am just now able to write. Let me start by saying Capt. Luke did an outstanding job. From the moment we left the dock till we arrived back was nothing short of fantastic. Capt. Luke could not have been more knowledgeable and professional about flats fishing in Key West. A job well done Capt. Luke.  From the tarpon to the red fish to the bones to the permit what a day of fishing. The highlight of my day was watching my wife land a 45 lbs tarpon. As you say in Key West we hooked three landed one. She had the best time. In fact we had so much fun we tried to book another trip that same week but couldn’t. We could have booked another trip with another guide service but decided not to. Why mess with perfection. You and your staff did an outstanding job. Form my first e-mail when I was planning our trip to the time we came back from fishing. I have attached a picture of my wife with Capt. Luke and her tarpon. Please fell free to use the picture if you want on your web page.
Thanks again,

Hi Alan

The pictures are not as good as we hoped.  The image is still sharper in our minds. (We were seeing the shark that we swam with for days, every time we closed our eyes.)
Thanks for a great trip.

Just a note to say, thanks for the fishing a couple of weeks ago.  Your two young guides seem to be as knowledgeable as any in the area.  
You asked how I got your name and it took me awhile but I remembered during the trip back to Houston who gave me your name.  It was Cap’t Paul Glanville out of Islamorada. I thought his name was Jim, but I was wrong again.  I fished with him there and in Key West.  He is more a flats specialist with fly.  I didn’t fish with him this time because he moved to New York.  I don’t think I will be fishing there any time soon. 

Anyway, thanks again and I hope you have a good season.

Hey Capt. Steve, 

Thank you for the great time Derek and I had flats fishing with you and Luke.  In an unfamiliar area and fishing style, we learned about tarpon fishing.  Thanks.  While I didn't hook up a tarpon, I was very excited to watch Derek bring in that nearly 100 pounder.  I will also remember the photo shoot and I hope to see you w/that Tarpon on a Mercury advertisement soon. 

 On a different note, Derek and I cancelled our wreck charter due to your recommendation, and instead, fished off a few bridges and rock jetties.  At sunset, and my last cast of the night, I hook up a tarpon right from the rocks.  It only took me 20 minutes to bring it in, using the techniques you showed us (pic attached).  

 I am still interested in going shark fishing, and hope to hook up with you guys soon.  Derek and I look forward to fishing with you in the future, and will bring some pencil poppers as a gift (ha ha)....

 Very Respectfully,

Hey Steve,

Once again, thanks for a great day this past Saturday. Mike and I both had fun fishing, seeing the waters off key west, and discussing the world's problems with you. :)

We'll be sure to let folks who are looking for a guide in Key West know that we had a good time with you.

Mike will look into possibilities for fishing seminars with Sports Authority for you.

Hey, if any of the photos or video you took from the day are available to us, *please* let us know. We like to have as much as possible to remember our fishing trips.

Best,

PS: Thanks again to Gennifer for helping us to set up the trip including recommendations for accommodations and restaurants.

Hello Lamp's. Just a note to let you know that our group had a great time with Captain Allan!  Our outing on the Inspiration was the highlight of our trip to Key West.  Thanks!

Hello!

Was out on the boat with Alan last Sunday, and had an absolutely fabulous time. We were the group that got the 100 lb + Tarpon. Anyway, Alan had asked me to email some photos to you for the website, so here you go! Once I'm finished going through the rest of the pictures I'll also send you guys a CD, just in case you wanted to use any others.  Again had a fabulous time, and Alan was fantastic!!! We will definitely look you guys up next time we are down in Key West.

Thanks so much.

Captain Steven and Gennifer!........just returned from my Key West getaway and let me tell you what a blast I had with Captain Luke Kelly! Luke's professionalism shined throughout the day as we jumped 3 nice silver kings, shared a few laughs and most importantly, I met several new friends in all of you. It is very rare these days to meet kind, personable professionals such as yourselves and you made me feel as if we all had shared a boat for years. (which we will!) Gennifer was fantastic from beginning to end and what a professional outfit you two run! First class all the way! A fleet of exceptional boats, the personnel, the rigging room, the Dream Catcher branded apparel, office area and "war" room all reflect your TRUE dedication to all of our passions! Gennifer, I appreciate your sense of humor about my comment about New Jersey, but it was rather funny that Steven was high-fiving me! Oh well, all in good fun right? Steve your stories were priceless and your passion shines right through every word. I am hoping to get down on July 1st and was wondering if Steven or Luke are open in the morning?

On a personal note, my experience on June 3rd was just a part of a dream day for me in paradise. I awoke to salt filled air and spent the next 6 hours battling the mighty tarpon, proposed to my high school sweetheart and it was my birthday! Thank you for making my day one I will absolutely NEVER forget! Keep a tight line, bow when the jump and see you all soon.

Regards........Steve Dall

Hi Gennifer,

Just wanted to thank you for helping us arrange our trip. We had a great time with Capt. Connan and on the Fish Finder. I was also wondering what happens to our deposit for the trip that didn't work out. Thanks, Rebecca Schoon and Justin Spring
