| Posted on: Wednesday. August 31, 2005 By: Arthur Toscano Hi Tony, It's Arthur from Texas. I just wanted you to know that you & Max help me fulfill a dream of catching a marlin on both sides of the equator within 48 hours of each other. An experience that will last a lifetime. Your expertise, equipment and your fishing techniques were the reason my dream came true. Thanks for the great time. I will be back on your boat as soon as I can. Thanks, Arthur Toscano San Antonio, Texas |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Aloha Arthur- Thanks for fishing with us! We almost had 2! We look forward to taking you again! Aloha! |
| Posted on: Monday. August 22, 2005 By: James McDowell and the Mississippi Air National Guard Aircrew Thanks Tony and Max for the excellent two days of fishing on the 13th and 14th of this month. With five Blue Marlin hook-ups and two in the boat, not to mention the two Ono and all the Skipjack Tuna we could handle, we could not have asked for more. Everyone had a great time and would not hesitate to book another trip. Aloha guys! |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thank you Jim and the guys from the Mississippi Air National Guard! We had a great time taking you all out. It was fun for us too. We will see you next time! Aloha! |

| Posted on: Tuesday. April 26, 2005 By: Wes & Carrie Ramsey Tony, Carrie and I had a great time on your boat! I think she enjoyed seeing the whales, dolphins, and flying fish as much as I did the fishing! We grilled a mess of Ono and A'ku Sunday, and it was soooo good! I don't know when we'll be back to Oahu, but be sure we'll be back out on da Boom Boom when we do! Many thanks to you and Max for a great morning. Mahalo, Wes |

| Posted on: Tuesday. April 05, 2005 By: Craig Solberg Howdy from Canada! Just wanted to drop you a line (no pun intended) to say Thanks for the AWESOME day of fishing we had with you on March 25, 2005. You and your crew did a great job in putting us onto lot's of fish!!! You helped where you could, and showed patience when we screwed up. What a great bunch of guys!! I lost count somewhere between 60 and 70 Ahi and Aku combined, plus a good Mahi Mahi. There must have been close to 80 fish in all!! I will be telling everyone I know who might be going to Hawaii about your operation, and you can bet that when we come back, we will look you up for another day of fun. Thank you for a day we will never forget. If you are ever in Canada, give me some notice, and we will line you/us up on some great Canadian fishing and/or hunting if you are interested. Thanks again; Rick, Craig, Jason from Wainwright, Alberta, Canada |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks Craig! It was a pleasure taking you guys out. You guys did a great job landing all of those fish! We'll see you next time! Aloha! |
| Posted on: Tuesday. March 29, 2005 By: KELLY GREGG Hey Tony! We had a great time fishing with you and your crew! My husband, Matt, tells everyone how great you guys were and to look you up if they are ever in Hawaii. My brother-in-law (the other Tony Brown) is also spreading the word back here on the mainland! I can't wait to get back to the island for some more great fishing with you! Aloha & Mahalo! |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks Kelly! We look forward to taking you all out again. Aloha! |
| Posted on: Sunday. March 06, 2005 By: Richard Stoops Aloha Tony and Max, We had a great time and did better then we expected. We plan on seeing you again, this time in June when the big guys are around Oahu. Mahalo, See ya soon, Richard and Diane Stoops Missouri |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks for fishing with us! It was nice helping you catch your first Marlin. We'll see you this summer! Aloha! |
| Posted on: Wednesday. January 19, 2005 By: Matt Heath Tony and Max - Thanks for the fishing outing, your hospitality was fantastic. Have to say the 35lb Ono was the highlight of my "business" trip to Oahu. I will track you guys down the next time we are in Oahu so we can go hit one of those honey holes!! Mahalo, Matt, Paul and Scott (Greenie) |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks guys for coming out. That Ono was one deal that we like to see closed! Aloha! |
| Posted on: Sunday. January 02, 2005 By: Chris Aloha Tony, Just wanted to say big mahalos for a great day on the water. That was the bet charter fishing trip I've ever taken. You and Max kicked ass and never stopped working for us out there. Too bad we couldn't nail an ono and get the "clean sweep", but that big spearfish, big mahimahi, and the ahis were definitely good for a day's worth of excitement. Plus, that big marlin hitting the 2 lines on the starboard side and then launching himself into the air was just awesome. Too bad he spit the hook, but we'll get 'em next time. Keep up the great work, and I'll see you soon. |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks for fishing with us Chris. It was a great day! Best of luck with school! Aloha! |
| Posted on: Tuesday. December 21, 2004 By: Rob Kohler Howdy Tony, what a great day out on the water. Man that was fun, watching those pilot whales, spotting that marlin? working the spread, and that little matter of the smackdown we threw on those Ahi. You and Max were great, and it's always a good day when the Captain gets to fish! Final count was around 60 Ahi, hard to be acurate, the Samoans were eating them off the cutting board. I did manage to get 30 home to Montana. We are already planning another trip, and I can't wait for another day on the Boom Boom!! |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks for fishing with us Rob. I'm glad the you had a good time. We did too! We are looking forward to taking you again soon! Aloha and Mahalo! |
| Posted on: Monday. November 08, 2004 By: Colin Hello from the East Coast Tony, it was good to see you in Baltimore several weeks ago. Maybe I will bring the gang out there some day. Regards, Colin Carr |
| Response by Boom Boom Sportfishing: Thanks Colin- It was great to see you and meet your family. I checked out your site www.tribelacrosse.com and you are doing a great job coaching and teaching the kids life and lacrosse. Keep up the good work and hopefully we can get you guys out on the boat soon! |

| Posted on: Saturday. July 31, 2004 By: Chris Stafford Thanks Tony for taking me and my family out on the ocean for the day. George and you were great company and we had a lot of fun fishing and finally bringing in that big marlin. |
