I was just sitting here daydreamaing and drinking coffee and decided to visit your website for the umpteenth time. Lo' and behold - a new design. Well, after spending 1 1/2 hours purusing, I just had to let you know that it is great. I've visited 1000's of sites during my professional career and while looking for new hunting/fishing adventures and your new site ranks right up there with the best - impressive, professional and most of all extremely informative. I am having trouble keeping from wishing my life away until August 2004.

Thank you for the wonderful Alaska experience. Every detail from the accommodations to the fishing & guide service was outstanding. Absolutely "5 star" all the way. Please feel free to use our names as references for future bookings.

Thanks Again,
Brian Burkard, New Bremen, Ohio

Just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for a truly memorable Alaska fishing experience. Our Dad had a real blast and all of us were extremely impressed with your professionalism and ability to "get the job done". The whole package was just fantastic! Hope you have a great season next year and for many years to come and who knows, we may yet again visit Alaska to fish the mighty Kenai.!! Again, many thanks and good luck with the new arrival next year!!

George Cloughley - Corona, CA

I just wanted to Thank You for a trip of a life time for my son and I. I have never seen a more true smile on his face as the one in the picture holding his 70 # king. You were very professional and all the trips you lined up were also very professional. The cabins were much nicer than I expected. The trip as a whole exceeded all of our expectations. The trip is going to be written up in our plants monthly newsletter. I will e-mail you a copy. I will make it back some day. If you every need a reference feel free to use any of us. Did you get Lucas's king in the Alaska fisherman? I would like to know what month it is in so I can buy a copy. Hope you guys are having a great year!

Thanks again,
Mark, Lucas, Gary, Brian Kohlrieser - Wapakoneta, OH

We wanted to thank you again for the great education about the various methods available in order to make our fishing experience a success. It was probably painfully obvious that we have had very little fishing experience, but we surely learned a lot! We intend to return, maybe next year, and bring a few family members in tow. Thank you again,

Jim and Maralee Cromie - Canyon Country, CA

Just a quick note to let you know what a great time we had. I think all made it home safe and sound and we were all dead tired but happy. We took a flightseeing trip up to Denali yesterday and it was spectacular. Any time you need great weather just invite us up!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We used Alaska Air Taxi at Lake Hood and they did a great job. All your arrangements get an A+ from us and everyone was helpful and friendly and PATIENT. Maybe we can do it again next year. As soon as I find out more about the Homer Electric deal I will get in touch. I will follow with a couple of pictures you might be able to use.

Thanks again
Ken Trawick - Destin, FL

Thanks for putting together a great trip for us. You guys handled the lost reservation for the King trip in such a professional manner, that I'll still recommend you to anyone I know heading up to the Kenia, and I'll still be calling you for my next trip (hopefully next year). I also wanted to let you know that Brent did a great job of taking care of us for the day on the Kasilof and the fly-out. He was a great guide and a fun guy to fish with, and he put us on the fish. I'm pretty sure the day we were on the Kasilof, we hooked more fish than any of the other boats out that day. I'd definitely be happy to fish with him in the future. How booked up are your cabins for the last half of July next year? Why don't you let me know what openings you have during that time.

Thanks again.
David Parlato - Bellingham, WA

That is Way Cool to see the fish on the fish of the year web site! Incredible! I would have never believed I would catch something that huge on my first trip up! Thanks again for a great trip!"

Kind Regards,
Scott Monson Johnston, IA

"Mark, A quick note after looking a your web page, to say thanks for the trips this past week! It was one of the most enjoyable fishing experiences I've had. The women really liked fishing with Avery. He worked the river long and hard. We enjoyed the experience with the Key-o Halibut charter, too! My wife Karen and daughter Heather still have sore arms. We enjoyed the day on the Kenai with you and Cindy and hope to be back and catch a couple next time. From my perspective, I really liked to hear about the work your doing to keep the sports fishery alive in Alaska.

Good luck to you!"

Joe Van Meter Portland, OR.

Dear Mark and Cindy,

"Thanks so much for your hospitality.... The fishing, the dinner, the delightful conversation. It was truly a joy to meet both of you. I find myself talking constantly about our trip and especially the fish that Jeff caught. When I tell the story, it's down to about 35 lbs. When he tells the story, it's up to about 85 lbs. Thanks so much for your kindness to us. The meal was great, your home is spectacular and I am sure yours is the best guide service on the rivers".

Thanks again,

Dan Walker Lewiston, ID

Dear Mark & Cindy,

Just a note to thank you for a wonderful Alaska experience I will never forget! Mark, thanks for the experience you provided for us on the Kasilof and Kenai Rivers. God has provided you with a wonderful resource and even better he has provided you with the skills and patience to work that resource to show people from all over the world what Alaska has to offer. You are the best person I have ever had show me fishing skills.

Sincerely,
Jeff Sayre Lewiston, ID

"Mark, Andrew and I are back in Atlanta and continue to talk about our unbelievable Alaska experience with one of the highlights of course being our fishing trip on the Kasilof. Thanks for the wonderful day and thank Cindy again for the delicious lunch and treats! We have already viewed our videotape and it came out great. We are waiting for our still shots to see the pictures of Andrew and I with our King Salmon. They should be terrific! If there is anything Andrew or I can do to give positive testimony to the great experience we had please let us know."

Alan and Andrew Mintz Atlanta, Ga.

"Thanks again for the memorable trip. The kids had a great time! It was a pleasure to seeing all that you've done in your beautiful home; I'm certain you realize what a truly fortunate young man you are; to live in a beautiful location; and to have a profession you enjoy!"

Yours truly,
Larry Lack, Novato, CA

"I want to thank you again for working hard to make our first Alaska experience a memorable one. We had a great trip and truly appreciate the hospitality you and Cindy extended to us on Saturday evening. I hope you enjoy the photos as much as we are. I have already had one that you sent us enlarged. It looks great! We are still in the after glow of this trip and already looking at 2001 and 2002 to return."

Regards,
Ben Nieters, White Bear Lake, MN

"Had a great time, will try and do something next year. Thanks for the dinner and hospitality."

"There is no way to tell you how much we enjoyed our visit there. The wonderful memories will last for a long time. Thank you again for such a wonderful visit."

With Love,
John and Betty Pearson, Pocatello, ID

"I am sending you my picture of which I have many copies. The day fishing with you was the highlight of our very exciting trip to Alaska. You were right about the weight, exactly 65.5 pounds. I had an enlargement made of the picture, it is in the family room where everyone can see.

I am getting to be a hit as a hostess because I serve a wonderful King Salmon dinner along with the story of our Alaska trip.

I also want to thank you for arranging for us to stay at the "cabin"! I never expected such a luxurious accommodation as that house. We really felt comfortable at home there. Greg and Hannah Corse were so nice. We are all looking forward to another trip."

Sincerely,
Ruth Harris, Mountain Lakes, NJ

"Thanks for such the great fishing outing you provided for us. It was indeed a very outstanding fishing experience for all of us which we will long treasure in our memories. We all did indeed recognize the many extras you did for us, especialy the ability to find where those silvers were. We apologize for being slow to learn and so quick to forget the exact art to conquering the silvers; but we recognized our good fortune for having a professional teacher. We were all satisfied customers and well pleased with everything."

Peace and all good things,
Father Jake Bauer, Grand Island, NE

"Probably the most interesting and fun time I've had in Alaska. Thanks for sharing your time, food, energy and knowledge with my friends. This one will go down in the memory banks forever. Good luck the remainder of the season."

Thanks again,
Dan Mendenhall, Pasco, WA

"We all enjoyed our trip, and you Mark, and look forward to future trips. All in all, your arrangements were great, the people were very accommodating."

Yours truly,
Dick Kelm, Sisters, OR

"Thanks for a successful fishing trip and a great time!"

Ed Croft, Kent WA

"Thanks for everything, we'll be back!"

Jim & Kevin Nell, Windsor, CA

"Without question, fishing on the Kenai with you was a highlight of 1997 (if not our lives!). The pictures capture the joy and excitement of it all and we hope to come back before too long."

Take Care,
Jim & Annie Sheriden, Evergreen, CO

Mark, We just wanted to take a moment and Thank You again! We had a great fishing trip and thank you for all of your hard work. Attached are some pictures of our trip to share with you. Thank You Again!!!

Take Care,
The Thompson Family, Clayton, Georgia

Mark, I can't remember if I followed up with you after our trip last summer. If not, I want to tell you how much we appreciated your professional guiding. It was the fishing trip of a lifetime for all of us. Even for my Dad, who has fished all of his life, catching salmon on a fly rod was a new experience.

Joe Jackson, Novato, Ca

Mark, thank you again for taking us fishing it was more than we ever expected. The lodging and hospitality was the best. We havn't stopped talking about it since we got back and telling everybody we know how great you and Brent were. Thanks again Mark and I hope to see you next year.

Michael Herman

Hi Mark, Thanks for the pictures. I usually think about the trip three or four times a day. Thank you for your part in making it so memorable. Can not wait to start planning the next trip. Have a great winter and spoil the Cindy and Faith big time.Would hope the next thing I hear is FISH ON but it will probably be something like TAKE OUT THE GARBAGE. Some days are better than others, especially those on the Kenai.

Thanks again
Joe Wells, Austin, TX

Dear Mark and Cindy: Thanks again so much for the two fun days of fishing and the Log Cabin accomodations. We had a great time fishing with Brent and Avery and really enjoyed the Log Cabin at Mountainview. We hope to come back up to Alaska in a few years so lets keep in touch. Have a great remaining 2002.

Regards,
Steve, Louise, Katie and Chris Sweet, Houston, TX

Mark-

So I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you thanks for a great time and for the fabulous fishing. You have a knack for spotting the fish and we were all glad to have you showing us the ropes!
Also, should we send you copies of the picture we have with our fish over 48" for the 'Release a Hog' program? Let me know.
I hope the rest of the fishing season goes well! Thanks again.

Gus Hauser, Louisville Kentucky

We wanted to thank you again for the great education about the various methods available in order to make our fishing experience a success.

Mark,

Tell Avery I really enjoyed your Trout and King package! Seriously Avery does a really nice job, low key, polite with very good people skills. He's a fine addition to your crew. Look forward to next year sans Humpies!

Thanks again
