Hi Capt. Tris,

I wanted to thank you again for the great fishing trip you gave myself and my family and the great effort you and your son put into it, we have memories we will talk about for years.

Here is the recipe you asked for, This is for about 4-5 servings,

3 sticks butter

2 fresh lemons

1 small jar marinated artichoke hearts

1 small jar sun dried tomatoes in oil

Olive oil

white wine (your favorite)

fresh basil

fresh oregano

1 box Cajun dry fish batter (If you cant find it, any dry batter will work just add some cayenne and black pepper to it)

4-5 serving size fillets of Mahi

Lightly coat the Mahi fillets in the Cajun dry batter, place the fillets in a fry pan with hot olive oil and fry till lightly brown.

In a small pan melt the butter over low heat, squeeze the lemons into it, add some sun dried tomatoes about 2 per piece so 8-10 slices of tomato- Add white wine, and about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, chop oregano and basil and add to the mixture. Let this simmer on low heat- stirring occasionally- until fish is done, about 5 minutes prior to serving add the jar of marinated artichoke hearts to the butter mixture- (liquid and all)

Serve by placing 1 fillet in a plate, heavily coat with sauce, make sure to give each piece of fish a artichoke heart and a couple of slices of sun dried tomato, garnish with fresh basil

Enjoy,

Ty Coleman & Family

Looking forward to our next trip!

Dear Tris and T-Bone,

I just wanted to thank you again for for another enjoyable experience out on the "Last Mango"

You know.... our first trip out was not bad either!!!! I know I get a little excited.... okay a little crazy when I start talking to the fish, but I guess that's what I like about you guys.... you let me.

Your knowledge and help make the day a great memory. We always look forward to getting back home to look at our pictures.

We are so glad that we met you and look forward to many more trips with you.

Thanks!

Dear Cap'n Tris,

Thanks for a being such a great guide and good sport during our first deep sea fishing trip.

The boys and I were glad we stuck it out in spite of our, you know, lack of fortitude.

The great catch and cool pics alone were worth the price of admission, and the Mahi-mahi tasted all that much better knowing what we had to endure to catch them!

I also greatly appreciated your willingness to wait out the weather and get us in when conditions were better. We promise to have stronger sea legs next time!

Oh, and the fillets were great!

Thanks for a great experience,

Chuck Firth and sons Henry, Max and Willy

Hi Capt'n,

I did not forget you!

The recipe for my Kingfish Cakes is listed below:

1 lb king fish (broil & season with garlic, salt pepper) drain all liquid and cool down... also flake it like crab meat

crushed saltines (about 1 sleeve or until consistency firm)

mayo (1 cup)

egg (1)

onion (1/4 cup diced fine)

red pepper (1/4 cup diced fine)

old bay seasoning (to taste)

Colemans dry mustard (1/2 tsp)

worcestire (to taste)

Remember, all this can be adjusted to your

taste....sometimes we add real crab....but usually only kingfish...a small one... no smokers in this recipe!!!!

form up each cake and fry in saute pan in canola oil!!! mmmm good! only way I will eat kingfish and I love em cold on the boat the next day for lunch with a remoulade sauce or cocktail sauce!

Capt. Tris and Devin-

We wanted to say thank you again for the awesome fishing over the Memorial Day weekend. After the final tally, we caught 25 dolphin, 4 sailfish (first sailfish for 4 different anglers), 1 cobia and 1 40lb amberjack. We were very happy to have to buy 3 new coolers (in addition to the 2 we brought) to take back almost 130lbs of fish. We appreciate all of your hard work and that you let us brave the rough weather to do some great fishing. Although, it's hard to remember much about the weather when we were pulling in a fish about every 20 minutes for two days straight!

Thanks again for the great trip!

Captain Tris,

Thank you so much for the wonderful fishing adventure that we had while vacationing in Melbourne. The boys had a great time and were very excited to catch so many big fish! Ted and I had a great time too! Devin was great with the boys and made their trip FUN by letting them do the work. We all can't wait to come back!

We enjoyed meeting you both and wish you continued safe seas and calm winds!
