"Thanks again for a wonderful morning of fishing! I was very impressed with your knowledge and professionalism. I was also impressed with the interaction your firstmate/deckhand, Willie, had with my son, Jason (age 11). Jason has caught many bass and bluegill, but landing a 15-pound salmon is a whole different ballgame. Willie did a great job of putting Jason at ease and showing him what to do. We had been looking forward to this trip for a long time, and, obviously, we were hoping to have a great time and catch some big salmon. Also, as a father I was hoping for a family-type atmosphere on the boat. Our experience on the Reel Addiction surpassed our expectations. I never imagined that we would limit out in just a few short hours with a 22-pound, 15-pound, etc. Jason and I relive that morning on the water every time we take a bite of our fish. Keep up the great work and hopefully we can make it back to Door County and do it all over!"

""Dale and I had such a great time spending our second honeymoon fishing with you and Willie. It was bitter sweet to catch our limit within 2 hours, our trip then over. The morning was beautiful and the expertise of you and Willie made it so enjoyable. We have been telling everyone we know about our experience and they have been waiting to see our catch on your site! See you in 08!" "

""I just wanted to thank you again for a wonderful experience you provided to my son, daughter and I. We took your charter a week ago Monday (7-30) evening. My son, Ryan, caught the 15 lb King Salmon right off the bat. We nabbed 6 and a half fish overall. You and Willie made every effort to ensure we had a great time and I really appreciate it. In fact, this weekend we're ready to savour some of that fantastic salmon on the grill.""

"Thank you for a 30 SALMON DAY! The Sanderful Adventure Fishing Legend grows with this experience. Relatives around Door County shared the harvest with greatful astonishment. Mariano (Andy) says "Hi" to Willie who thinks Willie is pretty cool). Consider this a testimonial, may the fishing gods continue to smile on Door County and Reel Addiction Charters. With much appreciation!"

"I wanted to drop you a line and say what a great time Sam & I had on your charter. We appreciate you making a available a service that allows a great experience for young fisherman. Sometimes charters contain language and beer combinations that can lead to a bad mix for a young fisherman's experience. "

"I fish...some, including my long suffering wife, say I fish alot. So this June, while planning a family reunion in Door County, it was no surprise to anyone that I suggested a fishing trip. Fortunately, we took the advice of some area locals and contacted your company, Reel Addiction, and booked a salmon excursion. With a group that ranged in age from pre-teen to 70 something, and with skill levels ranging from novice to experienced liar, we descended on you and your excellent deck hand, Joe. Through every step of the experience I could tell that this was not going to be an "ordinary" guided fishing trip. Your experience as a retired educator dovetailed wonderfully with our family which happens to include both current and past educators, and your comprehensive knowledge of the Lake Michigan fisheries was just the thing to impress a fishing fool like me. What could I possibly say was the best thing about our trip with you???...the fabulous boat, the fine fishing gear,the great camaraderie...or all of the above? I must not leave out the fact that not only was the fishing experience great...the fish catching was awesome!. Everyone on our trip scored wonderful, hard fighting Lake Michigan Kings or Steelies...you put us over them and had the right lures for the bite. I have fished with guides all over the world, and without reservation I would rate your charter as among the finest...anywhere. My only request now is...don't catch them all, because we'll be back!"

"Thank you for the spectacular day of fishing this July. Your expert and professional approach to detail was appreciated. It helped that I caught the biggest smallmouth ever (21"). The whole family had a great time and enjoyed your company."
Gary F., Chicago, IL, 2004

 

"Thanks for providing a great experience on my Lake Michigan charter. You and your 1st mate were very friendly, informative and put us on fish! I would highly recommend Reel Addiction. I took a competitors' charter later in the week, not nearly as friendly crew, too many people booked and not enough fish-only half had a chance to catch a fish. Thanks again."
Gene T., , 2004

 

"It is hard to believe that one week ago today I was busy packing and freezing the morning catch. You got us on fish right away, and the action never stopped. My thirteen year old is still talking about how he had the first fish 45 minutes into the trip!! All four of us had a great time, 10 fish with two twenty pounders made the day. Thanks again for a memorable trip, you and Joe do a great job---see you next year!"
Scott W., Winona, MN, 2004

 

"I don't know how to tell you how much we appreciate your expertise, patience and friendship. We will do everything in our power to be back next year for another great fishing trip with you and Joey. Thank you so much."
Frank & Cindy, W. Lincoln, NE, 2004
