Spotted Tail Fishing Charters gets a lot of repeat business because we're pleasant, professional, hard working, and we produce. Here's what some of our anglers have said:
"I have fished all over the world with dozens of different guides, and Capt. John Kumiski would have to rate as one of the best. He is knowledgeable, patient, and skillful. My son and I will never forget catching in one morning on fly rods two redfish weighing a total of 40 pounds." -Michael Barnett
"I cannot thank you enough for yesterday. I had one of the best days of my life and I enjoyed every minute. And of course, I can't stop thinking about: 'Lane, have you ever tried tarpon fishing? You'd be really good at that.'
"Yes, I need to try that.
"But I'll be back for reds, too. That's some awesome stuff. I'll send others your way, as well. Thanks again."
-Lane Thurgood
"Even with the cold temps Capt.Kumiski was able to find lots of fish for me to cast to...and I even managed to hook a few; 2 reds and a nice trout. John is a great guide and an interesting conversationalist, definitely a lot of fun to spend time with while catching some fish." -Dave Azar
"Of all the times I had been to Boca Grande to catch Tarpon, I had never come close to even hooking one. One trip with John in my own back yard and I not only hook a Tarpon, I catch two! Thanks for the Tarpon, John!
- Patrick Phillips

"I have been wanting to go after the redfish in the Banana River NMZ for a while now and before going I picked up your book on where and how to catch redfish in the IRL system. I also had previously read fishing the space coast and I took both of these books with me. We had a wonderful day of fishing and we were on the fish exactly where you said they would be. I just want to give you a huge thank you from me friend Daric and I!" -David Tassos
