Steve,
Thanks again for a fun day on the water. The fishing was great, evident by our need to go buy more bait halfway through the morning. We caught fish from the first cast to the last few minutes when we ran out of bait the second time. I truly enjoyed fishing with you and am looking forward to scheduling my next trip. You're a true professional and have earned a repeat customer.
Thanks,

Hi Steve,
I'm back home after our Florida vacation and wanted to send a testimonial that you can put on your website for other clients to see. As I had told you when booking my trip this was my third guided fishing trip to Florida and while I caught fish with the other guides each trip was disappointing because either the fish were small or lack of professionalism. This trip finally proved to me that you can catch trophy bass in Florida and get a professional guide if you do the right homework. Your website provided me more than enough information to help make a better decision this time and the trophy bass I caught will make me your client when I come back to Florida. I really appreciate the time you took to work with me giving great instruction on how to catch those big bass. If anyone is wanting a reason to book with you I hope this testimonial helps and if it doesn't I'm sure the picture of my first 10lb bass will!

Hey Steve,
Just a quick note to say thanks for a great trip. Every year my Wife and I take a fishing trip for our Anniversary and this by far was the best we have ever had! Just to get on the water in February is great but for my Wife to come away with a trophy bass was icing on the cake. We have fished in Mexico and Lake Fork before so we are not new to big bass fishing but Florida is by far is our favorite thanks to you!

Steve,
We
had an amazing three days of fishing with you back in February 2011 and
were thrilled with the 6lb bass on day one and the 7lb bass on day two
but you made my dreams come true with my first 10lb trophy bass on the
last day! Everyone talks about the "fish of a lifetime" and for 50 years
I have been chasing that fish with fishing trips all over the country so
to finally catch a trophy bass was an unbelievable experience. And to do
it on 10lb test line was even more impressive. Thanks for making our
trip so much fun and working so hard to put us on the fish. We will
definitely be back for more and of course bigger!

Hey Steve,
Wanted to thank you again for the great trip this past Tuesday (5/4).
Margaret and I just got back home Sunday. The
bass fishing in Orlando was by far
the highlight of our trip. (Despite my less than perfect skills
with a baitcasting setup !) In spite of "the one that got away" I came
away a much more educated fisherman. I even caught a few nice ones back
at our resort using a worm !
If you get a moment can you
email whatever pics you got of our day. I guess you could even send the
big one Margaret got so her and the kids can continue with their
unrelenting reminders that she is a better fisher-person than me !
Again thanks for the life
lasting memories.
Rob & Margaret Hauler
I just wanted to thank you for a
great day on the water. The spot you picked for us to do our fishing was
absolutely beautiful, and the fishing was excellent. I'm very happy we
pick your services for our outing, for not only are very professional,
but you were great with my son. Aavery enjoyed himself so much fishing
with you that after one day at Magic Kingdom he told my wife he wished
he had another day with you instead of being at Disney. This coming from
an eight year-old, I'm not sure I could give any better compliment
myself. Thank you once again and we look forward to seeing the pictures
you took.

Steve,
Thanks for the great trip this weekend. Troy and I really had a good time! We definitely gotta do it again!

Thank you so much for the trip this morning, it was a
great session. You make it seem so easy, it is always a pleasure to
spend time with someone who really knows their stuff.

Hey Steve, April 2010
Greetings from Gettysburg Pa! I finally got home on Wednesday and wanted
to let you know we had a great time on Friday.
Thanks again,

Thanks again for the amazing time my Father-in-law and
I had fishing with you on Lake Toho. I've been telling my friends about
the Zen Master fishing guide I met that calmed down an 8lb bass by
holding the line between 2 fingers before lipping it! And like I said at
the end of the day, the conversation was better than the fishing , which
is crazy considering I caught an 8lb and 7lb bass. You're a great guy
and I'm better for having met you and fished with you.

Steve,
I want to thank you again a great Orlando bass fishing trip. Our best 5 bass that day went 28-29 lbs. That's a great day of fishing in anybody's book! I will recommend you highly.
Thanks Again!!

Steve,
We had a great time on our January 2010 trip. It was very cold for
Florida (35 degrees) and we didn’t know how good the fishing would be,
but we were very happy with the trip. You found us some great fish and
we will definitely have you guide us again next time. Thanks for the
great time!

Steve,
Thanks for providing a great fishing experience for my son and I. Our
goal was to catch a least one "big one" and we did that and more. That 9
lb. largemouth was a sight to see and several pounds larger than
anything we have caught up in MA. Several 4-5 pounders and many 1-3's
kept us busy catching the entire day. Guessing we brought in 20 plus
fish....a great day.......Thanks!
Brad and Kurt Prouty Jan 2010
Fishing at Toho
was a completely different experience than targeting the Largemouth we
usually fish for here on the West Coast. The combination of the unique
behavior of the Florida fish, the unique attributes of the lake itself
coupled with the awesome weather made for an exciting day on the water.
I eagerly anticipate the next time I have the opportunity to fish in
Orlando again, and while that seven pounder is my best Florida bass for
now I know that bigger fish await in Toho. The Bass in Lake Toho are
famous for their quality as well as being notoriously tricky to catch
but with Steve Boyd as our guide we had a great day on the lake. He has
intimate knowledge of the lake and is able to adapt quickly to give
anglers the best opportunity to catch fish, in fact he guarantees it.

Dear Steve,
Once again thank you for a fantastic morning's fishing. Leaving before dawn racing across lake Toho to start fishing was brilliant. With the Sun rising we landed our first bass, albeit it was a peanut (your words), it was still a bass and several more followed. Not beating my previous effort of 8 1/2 pounds but each and every bass were still magical.
Thanks for your mastery of the waters and knowing where the opportunities were the greatest. The wildlife was an added treat on Lake Toho as it is absolutely awe inspiring.
So, once again many, many thanks and I look forward to our next trip to Florida chasing those big largemouth bass.
Thanks for the memories,
Bob Theobald
Steve,
Thank you again for a great fishing experience and for your patience
with the three of us. Pleas email the photo over of Brendon’s bass. I
have located a couple taxidermists here in Tampa….just need the photo.
Thanks again, and we look forward to another outing with you in the near
future…my wife and daughter are interested.
Alex
Steve,
Thank you for a great day on the water. Two 7+ lb fish really
made the trip for me. Besides the fishing , the highlights for the trip
for me were when Kevin Vandam pulled up on our spot and started fishing.
It was great to see all of the pros looking at what you were doing
because they respected the knowledge and time you have on the water.
Kevin went on to win the tournament fishing structure just like we were
within sight of where you were fishing.
I will always remember my first time fishing lake Toho and look forward
to fishing it again. The lessons you taught me about living in the
moment and thinking positively will make me a better angler for the rest
of my life.

Steve,
I'm back home from my trip and still reflecting on the day I
had on the water with you. My goal was to catch a trophy bass and you
definitely made that happen for me. You also taught me the value of
catch and release which I can say I will practice for the rest of my
life. Seeing that massive fish swim away knowing that someone else might
get the chance to experience what I did was the highlight of my day.
Thanks for a great trip and I hope to get back down for another in the
near future.
Take Care,
Steve Reynolds
Captain Steve,
Thank you so much for the awesome trip my Husband,
son and I had on June 10th 2007 ! You made a statement during our trip
that the girl usually catches the biggest fish and you were so right! I
caught two beautiful largemouths! I have recommended you to several of
our friends and family members. I would like to take this opportunity to
recommend your guide services to anyone viewing your website. You worked
diligently to put us on the fish and we had a very successful day of
fishing during our trip. We are already talking about planning another
trip for early next year. Thank you again for an unforgettable day on
the lake. We had a blast catching trophy bass!
God Bless You,
Dreama, Gary and Larry Thomas
Hi Steve,
I thought I would take a minute to let you know how much I
enjoyed my trip a few days ago. This was my fourth trip to Lake Toho and
although my previous guides were nice the big fish just never seemed to
come for me as my biggest on those trips was only 4lbs. On this trip to
Orlando not only did I catch big bass I enjoyed some great conversation
which really made the day enjoyable.
I have always heard of the big bass on Lake Toho but now I can talk
about what those monsters feel like when they are stripping drag from
the reel. It's nice to know that the next time I come to Florida I will
be able to say my biggest bass ever is a 9lb giant. I still can't get
over how big that fish was in my hands!
Take care and I'll see you on my next vacation,
Charles Patterson
Hey
Steve,
February 2007
It has
been a few days since our bass fishing trip and I wanted to let you know
how much I enjoyed our day on the water with you. I am still looking at
my pictures of that fish! I have been on many guide trips to Red River
and have yet to catch a trophy bass or for my wife to catch a big bass
so it was very rewarding to have it finally happen on Toho. You
definitely met our expectations for our trip and made the day very
enjoyable. This was the best bass fishing trip we have ever been on and
look forward to fishing with you again in the future!

Hey there Steve.
I just wanted to tell you how much fun (and relaxation) Nick and I had
on our fishing trip. We do want to book another weekend trip in
April and possibly include a few teenagers as well. Again,
thanks for helping me with "a big one"........Nick is very determined to
beat my catch!!!!
Thanks again, and hope to make the website!!!
Barbara Lane
Dear Steve,
Thank you once again for another successful fishing trip. My
family thoroughly enjoyed it, however, it has now spiked an inner-family
competition "who can catch the most fish - the men or the women"?
The women clearly kicked butt on this trip. Needless to say,
another trip is being planned. We appreciate your enthusiasm and
knowledge about fish (especially the bass), the entertainment you
provided, and your overall professionalism.
Thanks again - we'll get a
hold of you soon.
Sincerely,
Barbara and Nick Lane and kids
Hi Steve,
Just got back to Colorado Springs and wanted to thank you for a
fantastic day on the water.
Both my Wife and I really enjoyed our bass fishing trip to
Orlando....weather was great and the bass fishing was awesome! It was
our first experience using a bass fishing guide and I must say you
exceeded our expectations! Not only did we have a great time fishing
with excellent gear but we learned a great deal about bass fishing as
well. We appreciated the conversation... the day flew by way too fast.
Next time we'll make it 6 dozen shiners! I also wanted to thank you for
making my wife feel very comfortable throughout the day. I am still
laughing, thinking about her telling you she didn't feel anything even
after your second plea for her to set the hook. It made the experience
that much better.
After thinking about it, we had to have been around 24 bass for the day and I can only recall 1 fish that probably weighed less than 2lbs. Thanks for a great day!
That school of Bass busting the surface for shad was an experience all
by itself…something I’ll never forget.
Next year, there will be three of us���as both boys want to go bass
fishing with you! Can’t wait to see there faces as they land
quality sized fish….fish after fish! How early do you start taking
reservations?
Thanks again and best of luck in your upcoming tournaments!/span>
Thanks again,
Jim Gebing
