Roger, I gotta tell you, this was far and away the best fishing trip I have ever been on. We've done several charters in the Gulf of Mexico, and caught hundreds of fish, but the overall quality of the fish doesn't even compare to the catch the Famoso put us on. We had two trophy sailfish on AT THE SAME TIME, not to mention two Dorado's for a total of four hookups at once. What a dance we had! My Dorado (54") was the biggest fish I've ever caught. The crew of the Famoso were top shelf. We cut up and laughed with those guys all day, but when it came time to "go to work", they put their game faces on and got it done. A SUPERIOR EFFORT from a first class outfit - the best I've ever seen. The only problem I have now is clearing my calendar for another run at a monster Marlin. Did I mention my first ever Wahoo? I thought I'd hooked a submarine! Needless to say, the crew of the Famoso provided me a memory that I can take with me to the hereafter.

I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know how the trip worked out. I do a lot of charter fishing in New England and have fished with many different Captains and crew members. Your people are by far the best I've ever had the pleasure of working with. They were polite, attentive, informative and very friendly. They made us feel like we were old friends as soon as we got on the boat. Your Captain really knows his stuff. It was a tough day of fishing but he still managed to put us on fish. We only hooked up once but that's all it took. We managed to get a mahi mahi in the boat. After the trip was over, your crew took us to a local place and had the fish prepared for us. We all enjoyed a great meal! I would not hesitate to recommend you and your crew to anyone. I'm planning on coming back next year but I'll skip the cruise this time. I want to rent a house for a week and fish on the Famoso for 4 or 5 days on a row. Thanks for the great time and a memory my wife and I will never forget.

Had a great time!!!!! The white marlin I landed kicked my butt pretty good, but was well worth every penny!!!   Thanks again for everything.

From the moment our valet picked my group up from the airport, I new this was going to be an incredible trip. As we entered the Villa, we could smell something wonderful, and we were correct, freshly made ceviche and quesadias and margaritas. And it only got better from there. Living in Texas, Cozumel is not far away at all, but the crew from VIPCOZUMEL, sure made us feel worlds away from our daily routine, and helped us relax and have alot of fun . The deep sea fishing was incredible. caught my first Mahi Mahi (25 lbs.) and watched my buddy catch a 50lbs sail fish, just minutes outside the the harbor. I could go on and on!!! All in all, my experience was incredible. I have been highly recommending VIPCOZUMEL to all my friends as a sport destination because I know they will be taken care of. And I am making plans for future Diving and Bonefishing trips. Thanks to Roger and the VIPCOZUMEL group.
