Dear Ben and Naldo,
 
The experience of going to Brazil and fishing with “Big Amazon Fish” is a once in a lifetime experience.  The Jungle was amazing and the quality of life was a new adventure that has left lasting impressions and memories. To see how the families within the villages exist was a true eye opener, as we are so locked up in our daily routines and take such simple things for granite. The paddling of a “dug out canoe” was a much different challenge, then getting into you own car and driving to the store. We truly are spoiled people.
 
To see the sincere smiles of the villagers and for them to be so impressed with seeing themselves in a digital camera for the first time was awesome.  To be the guests of the village and share their stories and meet new friends was at times over whelming. Their quality of life and happiness is something that can only be experienced by the visit that was afforded by “Big Amazon Fish”.
 
Now fishing was a whole different story, where can you go and catch a 59 Kilo (130lb) Pirarucu and not say you haven’t caught a “BIG AMAZON FISH”, or a 9 Kilo (20lb.) Tambaqui another “BIG AMAZON FISH”!!   I was truly impressed with the Boat Boys, and their expertise to take you to the location to catch the big fish was amazing. They also had no problems to shimmy up a tree and retrieve a lure that was the result of an over zealous cast, or enter the water to untangle a large fish that has wrapped around a tree or had swam under a log.
 
Being able to come back to the Boat in the evening and share the photographs and video was a true adventure, along with the stories about the “big ones that got away”. It was not a “Fish Story” when people caught 104 fish per day, that is an amazing number but we were there to see it with our own
eyes. The Peacock Bass had beautiful color and many “Big Amazon Fish” were landed. Not to forget the Piranha’s or the alligators that were caught and photographs to tell of the amazing stories.
 
Your staff and accommodations were superior along with the fine food and hospitality. There were no requests that were not honored and it was a truly enjoyable experience. Thank you and you staff for the opportunity of a life time, along with the great memories and fish stories that people have to see photos to believe.

Once again the trip was amazing.  It sounds like we did quite a few more things than most other groups.  It was a very well rounded fishing adventure.  Although, I was definitely welcomed home with open arms after that long of having no contact with the fam.  Anyhow, take care and good luck with Big Amazon Fish.   Steve Finch

I truly did have the best time of my life on our Adventure Fishing trip to Brazil…  I didn’t know just how good of a trip we had until we got to the airport and was talking to other Americans about their fishing trip….  All they got was the fishing…  We got much more than just fishing, although the fishing was outstanding, we got to see downtown Manaus, shopping, and a fine restaurant, got to visit a small village and meet some nice Brazilians even went deep into the Amazon jungle. So it was as you said a true adventure along with some great fishing…  It was an outstanding event of a lifetime and I am glad I got to experience the whole thing…  I am glad I got to meet you and you showed us a wonderful experience of a lifetime…  I would recommend it to anyone and they should know that they will have a great time and a wonderful experience…  Thank you for everything.
