"I have fished with Captain Todd several times and have always found him to be a very professional guide, willing to go the extra mile to make a fishing trip interesting, productive and enjoyable. He is always willing to run to where the fish are. I look forward to fishing with him again in the future."

"Todd is totally all about the people on his boat and dedicated to bringing home the species of fish you are after. From off shore to pounding the backwaters, Todd is the best."

"I like to go fishing in many places I vacation and the most important thing is finding someone who is an expert on the local area. Todd knows where the fish are. I can't imagine someone knowing more about the water, tides, conditions, and best places to catch fish in and around the Marco area. I went out twice with Todd and I caught all the fish I wanted to...and then some. I had lots of fun catching snook and I took home enough red fish and snapper to share with everyone. When I'm back in Marco, I'll use Todd again without hesitation."

"I recently fished the Gulf with a few friends. For the 5th year in a row, we hired Todd to be our guide. We all agreed that he is the best fishing guide in Marco Island. We caught a lot of fish, including red grouper, amberjack, cobia, and snook. We highly recommend using Todd as your captain/guide."
Tom Meade
"We did a morning half day trip in shore at the Ten Thousand Islands with Captain Todd. He was an excellent guide. We caught fish every time we stopped. Was very patient and answered all of our sons questions! His boat and equipment was in excellent condition. We had a lot of fun and could have easily stayed all day. We highly recommend Kickin Tail Charters!!"

"I heard about Capt Todd from a friend. 2 of my friends and I met him at the marina and were amazed by his beautiful, spots less boat. He was very friendly and took us a pretty good way through the beautiful ten thousand islands. we arrived a a long bank covered with mangroves. The first big snook hit immediately. The action was non stop. snook, redfish, trout, even a small tarpon. The day went by so quickly, it was like a great dream. Don't miss fishing with him. You will have a ball!"
