Hi folks, Willie from Texas Outdoor Organizers (T.O.O.) here. We have had the honor of initiating, organizing, and implementing the Texas Fishing Forum Tuna charter series and multiple other "public/internet" based charters over the last 14 years.
I and T.O.O. have truly been blessed & humbled to be a part of all these charters.
T.O.O. has made a business decision effective with the completion of the 2015 TFF M3-Catorce Tuna charter in that T.O.O. ends its business association with any public/internet based charter, including future TFF Tuna charters. As such, T.O.O. will not be the focal point of any future TFF Tuna charter. I offer thanks to everyone on the TFF; from JP, the first/one time tuna fishermen, & to especially the core long time TFF tunaheads for their support and participation in allowing T.O.O. to be a part of the TFF Tuna charters.
I know future TFF Tuna charters will continue and keep to the high standards the fishing members of the TFF established over the last decade and a half.
Again, thank you to all on the TFF that we had any part of working and dealing with, we have been blessed to work with, work for, and fish with some of the best folks in the world.
Willie

Thanks so much for all your work these many years Willie! I know these charters are a lot of work for very little money and you have definitely put in your time. I know everyone who has participated in one of the tuna trips appreciates you and your organization!
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

Willie, I can say as a first time tuna head this year you were perfect in communication when the spot came up and then again when having to bump up a day and keeping me informed so I could change flight schedules! Good luck with all you do in the future!!!

Willie, I want to publicly thank you for being there when I had and idea to do a deep drop trip over the summer to target those tasty bottom dwelling creatures... you made getting those charters off the ground so much easier. Im sorry to hear you are getting out of the game but thanks again for all you did to make my deep drop trips a success...
Tight lines and i hope to see you around...
Bill

Willie, it has been a pleasure being on T.O.O. managed trips. Your hard work and coordination really made these a no brainer and will be missed. I wish you and T.O.O. continued success!

Couldn't have said it any better!!! Our most recent trip was an example of what Mark said. Thanks again for all of your coordination and hard work.
