We had a hard
day at sea but came out on top. The seas were very calm and
made for a hard fishing day. Capt. Luis and the two mates
worked very hard to keep all five baits in the water and
fresh. We were able to catch one mahi-mahi on the south end
of the island and at 4:15 PM, about two miles from the
marina, Davis Gregory-my stepson, caught a 60 pound white
Marlin. This was his first marlin and a great high school
graduation gift. I have fished for big game in many places
around the world and give the "Second Front" a big thumbs
up. They were there waiting, very friendly and my payment
was secure. Thank for a great time. These guys can be
trusted. Thanks Again and see you soon!

Attached are some photos of the
sailfish and the Mahi Mahi we caught on the Second Front on
Tuesday. We had a great time and Antonio (Capitan) was great.
All I wanted was to catch a sailfish and we did just that. It
was only our second time to ever fish like this and your guys
took care of us as if we were royalty. I have never been
treated better on any kind of fishing trip. I intend to do it
again with Second Front next time in Coz.

Thanks for helping
with scheduling the best fishing trip ever. We booked two days and
it was amazing. The first day we went out on Saturday morning at
7:30am sharp. We hooked our first Mahi within 10 minutes, a nice
45 pounder. Then we saw a free jumping white marlin to the side of
the boat.. What a sight. A few minutes later we hooked a white
marlin that threw the hook after a few jumps. We caught one more
mahi for the day and lost a few others.
Sunday morning we went out hoping for a bill fish. We got a bite
from a white marlin just out of the marina, it hit two baits and
wouldn't stay hooked. Then we went out and had a blue marlin swim
right bye the boat and would have no part of out baits. We went
south and caught another nice mahi. It was slow for a while then
we got in a school of mahi and landed three quickly. Coming into
the marina with about 1 hour of time remaining to our two day
fishing trip we had two marlin hit with no luck. Then we saw
another blue marlin swimming right next to the boat again, but
again no luck. 30 minutes to go and I saw a bill and fin come up
on the long line. Tony quickly went up got the rod let the line
back and hooked the fish. It almost spooled the line on the reel
when it jumped, an amazing blue marlin. We got the line back with
Captain Luis backing down on the fish. Then there he goes again
taking almost all the line back out with spectacular jumps. This
went on, over and over for a long time. Finally after 2 1/2 hours
of fighting the fish Captain Luis bare handed grabbed the line and
started hand lining the fish to the boat. Luis, Luis and Tony all
grabbed the fish by the bill and got it in the boat. Somewhere in
the 250 pound range. What an amazing fish. There were two
tournaments so far this year and that fish would have won both of
them.
Next time it will be a fishing and diving trip. Hope everyone is
as fortunate as my wife and I. Thanks so much.

Thanks again for helping us
arrange the fishing trip. We had a really good time: caught 3
Mahi Mahi and 2 Wahoo. We even got back in time to have two of
the fish grilled at a local restaurant before returning to the
cruise ship! I have to admit, my expectations were very low
going into this (booking on the internet can be a bit
unpredictable), but the guys really came through and showed us
a great time. Thanks again!

David, we had a
spectacular time on the trip. The guys on the second front
really took care of us and made for a great fishing trip. They
put us on the fish quickly. After about 20 minutes, we hooked
a marlin but unfortunately it threw the hook after a few
jumps. Soon after, we were catching these nice mahi. The only
negative thing about the trip was that we didn't have enough
time, but the lady (my wife) had to shop. Oh well. We will
definitely be back next year so let your guys on the boat
know.

We had the
time of our lives, the service and treatment on the boat
with Captain Luis and the crew were First Class! These guys
were amazing. I went on my first dive ever in the morning
and saw a whole new world. Luis is a very patient and
wonderful instructor. In the afternoon I landed a good
fighting Mahi Mahi that I can't wait to sink my teeth into.
What an awesome day! Can't wait to get back, next time with
mom and the boys!

We had a great time fishing with the crew of the "Second
Front"! We even landed a 45-50lb Wahoo. We would love
to come back in October for diving and fishing. I will
send you an e-mail to book another trip. Thanks again
to Luis (Capt.) and Luis (Mate).

What a
day! Luis and Luis are great! When
we cleared the marina, Luis turned
on the stereo and got to work
baiting hooks. Luis got all the
bait in the water and then started
panning around looking for signs of
the targets. Only taking his eyes
off the water to make sure I was
good on cerveza. By the way,
everyone went out of their way to
assist my sea sick prone girlfriend,
helping where ever they could. The
music was great, the people were
excellent, and most of all the
fishing was amazing. Three Dorado (Mahi
Mahi) and the first Sailfish of the
season (check out the gallery that’s
Luis, Luis, the sailfish, and me in
the middle with the St Louis
baseball hat on). These guys knew
where and how to fish. It was an
amazing day. Top notch very
professional individuals with some
great fish stories. Lucky for
me I didn’t have any time to hear
them, since we were too busy reeling
in the fish! |

David was
great also; he was more than
accommodating in arranging our
outing. Spending your day with Luis
and Luis will be something to
remember; we had a great time with
the guys! I’m still smiling from the
experience. We can't wait to come
back; we love Cozumel and the people
are amazing! Thanks guys, see ya
soon. |

You're
crew was great and very professional. They kept my
family happy while on the boat including taking us to a
few snorkeling spots. This was the only fish we caught;
but any day, if the only fish you catch is a White
Marlin, it's a good one. Myron Alt,

Love your
operation there in Cozumel. Becky and Myself had a
wonderful time on the flats and on the offshore trip.
Your staff are very skilled and professional. Both of
the trips we took on your boats felt like first class
charters and we have been on quite a few. Tell your
brother thank you for making a couple dreams come true
for the two of us. I caught my first bonefish, and Becky
was 2/3 of the way to a grand slam on the flats with the
bonefish and permit (she needed a tarpon to complete the gs). We will definitely be
back! |

I wanted
to send you a note and let you know that we had a great
time last Tues. on our trip with Luis. We had no trouble
getting to the marina, and as soon as we arrived Luis
and the crew were ready to leave. As it turns out, the
ship did arrive at 7am local time so we got there about
8am and were well on our way by 8:30. We headed South
towards the end of the island and when we got close to
the area around the lighthouse, we picked up two Yellow
Fin at the same time. The further we got around the
island the more the wind picked up out of the Southeast
and it got real rough, and we couldn't make it without
getting sick. So I told Luis to head back to the leeward
side, but the fish were out there in the rough stuff. I
think that if we could have stayed out there we would
have done real well. Luis took us where the fish were
and we were very satisfied with him and the crew
(Antonio, and Luis). We will definitely refer him to
anyone we see coming that way and hope to return
ourselves if we can. |

Upon
cancellation due to weather, Captain Cecil writes:
You can bet that my next trip down will include a
booking with you, we are already thinking about flying
down for a 3 day visit. I could tell that Louis and
Christina are my kind of folks, so we will be in touch.
I received my full refund. Thanks again and don't worry
I fully understand the nature of the beast, I had to
cancel one just before we left and looks pretty bad for
me this week too as another cold front bears down on us.
Keep in touch Cecil. |

We just
returned from Cozumel and fishing with the crew on the
Second Front, Luis and Antonio. We did not have the
perfect day for fishing with the presence of high winds,
but the harbor master said we could safely fish so we
went fishing. The crew of the Second Front worked
extremely hard to put us on fish and we were successful,
catching two Wahoo! These fish are one of the most
difficult fish to catch in these waters and we were able
to find not one, but two. We only observed two other
boats out fishing and to our knowledge, they were
unsuccessful in their attempt to locate and catch fish.
I would strongly recommend the Second Front and the crew
of that vessel to anyone wishing to fish in Cozumel with
an expectation they will catch fish! Please thank the
crew for us again! |

We had an excellent time
with Luis and Miguel today. The bite was consistent if
not great. We boated 4 very good barracuda, but the
prizes were two mahi-mahi and a wahoo (a first for us
all). Of all of the charters we have done, Luis was the
most engaging captain that we have encountered. He
enjoyed the day every bit as much as we did and we spent
quite a bit of time just enjoying getting to know him
and Miguel. Luis is a rare breed in his industry and
will no doubt be a sought after charter captain in short
order. I will recommend his services to anyone traveling
to Cozumel and definitely make a return trip if I happen
to make it back to the island. |

Just back from vacation and we are already thinking
about when we can book our next charter on the Second
Front. Luis and crew have a true passion for
sportfishing. We knew that were in for a great time but
Luis's knowledge of fishing, diving, and local history
totally exceeded our expectations. The Wahoo I landed was
the biggest yet for me. Mate Orlando (?), beside
tending to our five line spread and teasers, prepared a
great lunch and was always there with a cold beverage.
Also, many thanks to you Dave for making the booking
process a breeze. Could'nt have been easier. |

| Wow! We had a fantastic
experience with Christina and Luis. They were first
class. Not only the diving but the hospitality as well.
They are your best friends on that boat! We also went
fishing with them and caught the largest blue marlin of
the Cozumel Rodeo May 13 a day after Christina`s
birthday! This crew really knows how to FISH! Thanks. |
