“I thought a lot about what you said about your past two clients: The guy who caught the 9 ft bull shark, and the guy from Oklahoma who watched his 14 yr old son catch his first tarpon. What you and most other good guides take for granted sometimes is the amazing marine world you get to see everyday. For most of us, it is a dream or a fantasy to come down and see what you see on a daily basis. Now we don’t see the other side: castnets and broken motors, feast or famine on charters, long days and short nights. But for those 8 – 10 hours we are on the boat, we are in another world. We can be a fisherman like Hemingway, a pirate, we can be Jimmy Buffet, we can escape the world we live in and be Capt Bo and DD’s buddy for a day. Throw in sharks, snook, tarpon, gators, dolphins and manatees and for people who live in TN or OK or OH, it becomes a dream come true. You and DD do the best job of inviting people to be a part of that world than any other guide I have ever known. And I know a lot! Thanks again for allowing me and my family to be a part of your world and we look forward to next week.”
