    I've been fishing with Burton Bosley for over 10 years to date and I find him to be a triple-A rated guide. I personally have been fishing close to 50 years and my wife and I own a small overland yacht transportation company. This gives me access to fish some of  the most productive waters in North America. I have a book of  dozens of quality guides and Burton is in the top. My trips in the Everglades with him have not only been highly productive but a  really good time!
    Although catching fish to some may be what it is all about. But I am at a point in life where the total experience is as important.   Burton works hard to put you on the fish - he exposes certain techniques that I've never seen anywhere. But the most important  thing of all is the exposure to a knowledgeable and quality human being.
    Yes I recommend fishing with Burton on a good day or a bad day -- it will always be a good day.

    A note to thank you for the exceptional day of fishing the everglades. I did not expect to see the abundance of wildlife, the  exotic birds and many alligator. The best of course all the action we had in strikes, and the thrill of a big catch, icing on the cake. I appreciate your knowledge of the waters and your eye for a good bait which I was using when I caught and released that beautiful bass!
One last word on the good company you provided, just right.  
    Thank you again for a very fine time, the incredible vistas, I  won't soon forget beauty seen & the great day of fishing! I will  surely be back for more!   I will remember too, all learned about  fishing in those sweet southern waters you know so well.  Best of  Luck to you... I should wish the fish luck, they will need it to stay out of your boat! 
    Sincerely,
    Patricia Hayden, West Virginia

 
    We have had the distinct pleasure of having gone twice with Burton.   Once, with my grandkids from Canada and once, with adult friends from Canada.   From children to adults Burton makes all of his guest feel at home with his gentle W. Virginia manner makes you comfortable in very foreign surroundings.
    I was also most impressed with the first class equipment used and his ability to show rank amateurs the proper use of them.   We are looking for to our next time on the Glades with Burton.

   Living in the Midwest and being an avid bass fisherman for almost 40 years, I have often  thought of making a trip to Florida to catch some legendary southern bass. I finally had the opportunity recently and made the most of it by fishing with Captain Burton Bosley for 3 days.
   We fished several different canals in the Everglades and were rewarded not only with unbelievable beauty but outstanding fishing. Although by his standards the fishing was slow,  we caught 25 to 30 bass per day with many being in the 4 to 6lb range.
   There were many  more opportunities for more big ones; we just didn’t land them all. We fished mainly with frogs and other topwater baits but did catch a few on cranks, traps and spinnerbaits.  For  anyone not familiar with frog fishing, Burton is a master and can quickly teach you the ends  and outs.
   Trust me, if you want a fishing trip of a life time; spend a day with Captain Burton  Bosley.  His equipment and tackle is all first class and he will get you into the best fishing  you’ve ever experienced!
