Quotes Andy, I wanted to thank you for the trip on Dec. 29. My father in law and I had a great time hauling fish over the side of the boat. We were not fishing but catching. We talked about the moon clock calculator and how it showed Thursday as a poor day for fishing. You proved the calculator wrong. We had a great time landing over 30 fish in a couple of hours. If you want to check out the moon calendar go to moontimes.com or visit fishingclub.org. Again, thanks for a great day on the water. I will definately look you up if I am in the area.

Quotes My family and I had a great time on our fishing trip. We learned a lot and got to fish in several different areas around Port Charlotte Harbor. I caught the two biggest fish I've ever seen up close; they were too big to keep and had to be thrown back! We all had a great time and enjoyed the fishing and learning about the fish and local area.

Great Fishing Trip.

Quotes Capt. Andy is a true professional in all terms, the man can just plain find fish. He took me and my buddy Scott out last week and the guy just works hard all the time to find you fish. Equipment is top notch and gets you involved as soon as you leave the dock and it is a true testiment of how good the man is when other Captains call him to see where the bait is and where to find the "BIG" fish. Thanks again Capt. Andy Quotes
Tarpon Trip

Quotes Hi Captain Andrew, Just wanted to thank you for our trip to the mangroves of Charlotte Harbor. I asked a lot of questions and you gave me good answers to each one. You showed us where the fish were and why they were there. You gave us casting tips for throwing rigs that had split shot, floats, and live bait. I really enjoyed talking to you about boats, rods, lines, hooks. The best part was you put us on the fish and my brother and I caught some nice redfish. It was a great day and I look forward to our June tarpon trip. Have a good one, Dennis Bryan Quotes

Quotes My brother & I fished twice with Cpt. Andrew and you can tell he really knows the area waters. The bite was off on our first trip but we went out on February 22nd and Andrew found a bunch of nice fish in the mangroves. He was a good teacher with a good attitude. We landed some very nice reds. I have booked a Tarpon trip this spring and know I will have a good time with Cpt. Andrew. Quotes

Quotes Andy, It was a pleasure fishing with you over the holiday's. It was nice to find someone that was very interested in showing us the area and finding a charter captain that truely cares if his clients catch some fish! It was a pleasure to watch you help my son become a better fisherman! We will be back in Florida and look forward to fishing with you again! Thanks for a wonderful experience! Quotes

Quotes I had a great trip fishing with Capt Andy on Fri Dec 10. Although the weather had been colder than normal we got out on a nice day and the fish sure did cooperate. I have never caught 50+ redfish and all were fat and healthy. If anyone is looking for a Charlotte Harbor guide I highly recommend Capt Andy and I am looking forward to a tarpon trip for next year.

Backwater Charter

Quotes Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed spending the day with you on Tuesday. I learned a lot, caught some nice fish, and got a very good look at different areas in the bay. You are a good instructor, and I enjoyed the way you explained why we were doing what we were. You have a real passion for what you are doing, and it shows. If you have any pictures of our day and could forward them to me, I'd appreciate it. thanks again for a great day. Frank Schultz Quotes

enjoyed the trip.

Quotes Hey Andy, Danny Colomby here, (the Canadian music writer you chartered one evening). I just wanted to thank you again for a very cool evening of tarpon fishing! As I mentioned in the boat that night, it's a real joy to fish with someone who really knows his game and his quarry and who can impart that knowledge to neophyte clients such as myself. During my 4 days in beautiful Punta Gorda I had the opportunity to rub elbows with a number of professional local fisherman. I witnessed the high degree of competitiveness amongst the guides, understandably so. I have to say that I enjoyed your candor in the boat. I am including the pics of the tarpon my friend Greg Gilson landed in your boat that evening. Even though mine got away, it was huge and is indelibly etched in my memory! I'll just have to come back and try again. Thanks again Capt. Medina!, best fishes, Quotes
