Nancy, I believe this was the younger guys first fish to boat. At least that is what I gathered from the other guys laughing at him and making him kiss the fish. Again I want to let you know that the entire experience was great! The boat and crew on the Dragin’ Fly were incredible.

The fishing may not have been so great but we enjoyed our trip. Your crew on the Spanish Fly worked extremely hard to find us fish. I was truly impressed with their knowledge and ability to work so well as a team. I certainly look forward to making another trip down and taking you up on your offer.
By the way Tio is a damned good cook. He should make someone a great wife.

We are back home and remembering with a smile all of the fun we had on our trip to Costa Rica!
Thanks so much for such wonderful service, good food and making our vacation a trip of a lifetime! Look forward to keeping in touch and receiving continuing fishing reports from you guys.
Nancy, if you are willing to share, I'd love to have your breakfast bread recipe.
Thanks again for all you do! If you're ever up this way, be sure to give us a call....
All the best,
Carol and Jim Ott

Three friends and I fished on Super Fly and The Bite, Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 2008 (respectively).
We had an awesome time.
The crews on both boats were absolutely amazing. On Super Fly, we caught 4 Dorado, 11 Tuna, and 6 Sailfish. On The Bite, we caught 10 Sailfish and 3 Dorado. We could not have been more pleased. Our expectations were exceeded! I just wanted to let you know that the crews of these boats are doing a very good job.
Being from North Carolina, I have seen and fished on lots of charter boats. The Maverick Yachts are among the best I have ever seen and fished on. Thanks so much for helping my buddies and I have an experience we will never forget! I have attached a few pictures from our trip.
Thanks again!

Nancy,
Once again, thank you, Bimmy and all the guys on the Spanish Fly and Super Fly. The captains and the crews were fantastic. One of my customers told me; “the banana bread alone was worth the trip.” Please take a look at the attached photo and tell me if it looks like my customers and I are having any fun.

Hello Nancy!
It's tough getting back to the grind. Thanks for making things work for us. We had two great days of fishing. I believe we boated 19 Sails, 1 250+ Striped Marlin, 2 Yellow Fins and 3 Dorado. Saturday we had triple hook-ups twice and boated every one of them. That does not happen very often!
I think I’m planning on another trip in November. I’ll give you a call as time gets closer.
Regards,
Mike Hutar
Nancy,
Just wanted to drop a line to tell you and Richard how much fun we had on our trip.
The two days of fishing were outstanding with a blue marlin, 4 big sails, 9 mahi and 6 dorado. Capt. Daniel, Mainor, and Carlos were all first rate, and the service was outstanding. The Spanish Fly is the standard from which all future billfishing trips will be measured.
We will definitely be back!

Dear Nancy and Richard
I just wanted to drop you a short note to inform you of what a great experience I had with my colleagues on the Spanish Fly this past Friday the 5th of October. The Crew was nothing short of a well oiled machine! The first and second mates were extremely professional and skilled at their respective trades. Carlos and Gilberto made sure we were hydrated and fed at all times.
The fact that they physically prepared all foods made the experience really FIRST CLASS. The fishing was a little slow however Captain Mainor was still able to put us on a large Dorado (approximately 45lbs), a 20lb Yellowfin Tuna, a 75lb Sailfish and we got really excited when a Marlin came in to the spread however wasn't hungry enough to eat. All in all a very good day under the circumstances.
The Crew worked hard to ensure our complete satisfaction from the moment we stepped aboard to the second we got off.
Thanks again for what was an EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE for me and my colleagues!
Best Regards and PURA VIDA!

I talked with Trey Peterson earlier this morning and his group had a phenomenal time on their fishing trip. He let me know in no uncertain terms that he wants to fish on the Spanish Fly in 2008.
Trey has been to Los Suenos several times and I have had his groups on several different charter boats over the years and he said without a shadow of a doubt that the crew on the Spanish Fly is by far the best he has ever fished with. ---- Ward Michael’s Hunting and Fishing, Florida
“The Bite” with captain Marvin and mates Mariano and Carlos are first class.
We had the finest fishing experience to date. Your crew and the boat exceeded all of our expectations and we literally can't wait to return. We have made a deal with Kelsey that if she does academically well in her new High School in Colorado - we will return to Costa Rica during her next spring break to see if she can catch a Marlin. She said the sixteen sail fish that she did catch was just a warm-up. She also assures us that she is going back to Costa Rica. ---- Dr. Lou Perez
Hi, I was with the George Beckwith, Robbie Pasfield group this past week. I feel compelled to tell you have one great charter boat team and boats. Cap David, Carlos and Stephen are great, fun people and outstanding fishermen!
They provide a truly fun, exciting, and productive fishing trip. They are worth whatever you\'re paying them and then some!! Great, clean, comfortable boats. The salon is very acessible to the cockpit so if you do get to hot you can cool off but still be steps from the the action. Love it!!
Ofcourse it didn\'t hurt to land 15 sails and 5 mai\'s the 1st day and 7-8 sails day\'s 2 and 3!!! Sincerely, ---- Capt Fred Walker
I just wanted to drop you and Bimmy a note to say THANKS!
We had a great time on this trip and really enjoyed fishing on the Spanish Fly with Captain Daniel and Crew. It was with-out-a-doubt, the best day I every spent on the water. I don’t have enough words to tell you how impressed I am with Daniel and the Spanish Fly. ---- Jack DeGrand
I hope that everyone has a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! We had a great fishing trip with Danny,CoCo & Geraldo (sp) .....we caught 45 sails and 3 blues in 2 1/2 days (the last 1/2 day we tried a Rooster)...the guys were wonderful the boat was awesome and we look forward to next year !! ----Danny Young
I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for a great time on The Spanish Fly. While it would have been nice to pull the Tuna in, it was still a blast fighting it. Plus, we all caught a sail so that was worth it.
The entire crew was great! Please pass on my thanks to them as well.
----Steven Gottshall
We want to thank you and the awesome crew of the Spanish Fly for 3 great days of fishing. The best 3 days in a row we have ever had and by far the best captain and crew! ---the fishing dentisits
Just wanted to drop you a line and say Thanks! That was the best day of fishing I have ever had. We caught 2 sailfish, 4 wahoo, 8 yellowfin tuna and 9 dorado! The boat was fantastic...not just for me, but I wanted to let you know that one of the guys fishing with me is a leading naval architect in the industry who designed for Berger and has really made a name for himself in the last few years with the Buddy Davis / Egg Harbour line of sportfishing boats among others. Anyway - he was extremely impressed with "The Bite" and had many compliments for it. ----Scott Dawson
Hello Nancy, I wanted to thank you & the crew of “The Bite” for the outstanding experience we had on Saturday. I have been on many charters all over the world & this crew by far is leaps and bounds above the rest. We truly had a wonderful & memorable experience. I will defiantly be booking The Bite for many years to come ---- Ron Silviera
I just wanted to thank you for an awesome experience. We all had an absolute blast. You and your crew run a 1st class operation and I would HIGHLY recommend “Spanish Fly” to anyone going down there. We went 12 for 15 on sails and a 40lb mahi. Even if we caught nothing I will say that the crew was professional, fun, entertaining, and when the bite was on….they were on fire. AMAZING experience. ----Mike Formichella
I wanted to thank you, first of all, for a great fishing experience. The Super Fly is a great boat, and the captain and crew were wonderful. We caught 3 dorado, which was fun; our party who fished on the other boat, I think it was the Barbarosa, hooked 2 sails, landed one, and a dorada and marlin -fantastic!. ----Brady Patin
