Member since May 2020 Palm Bay, United States

Background: Dave has been a licensed captain since 2005. He enjoys being out on the water and is very knowledgable about the area. Taking people to go fishing is one of the best jobs he could've hoped for, and it doesn't matter how skilled they are. Captain has a lot of personal experience and likes to share it with others.

4 Hour Inshore Family Fishing (AM)

Had a great time with Capt Dave, fishing is a by chance sport not a guaranteed sport. We never had a pontoon boat trip so it was quite the adventure. A beautiful day and plenty of pelicans and the manatee sighting at the end was a plus. He deserves 10 stars his knowledge and personality is phenomenal.

We had a great time, we caught a few fish, they weren’t biting much the day we were out. We saw several dolphins and manatees plus a lot of birds, herons, eagles, pelicans… We definitely recommend Captain Dave and we will book a trip with him the next time we come down to Florida.

Relaxing 1/2 day fishing trip on the Indian River. Capt Dave took care of all the heavy lifting and we just focused on fishing. Informative captain with plenty of knowledge on the surrounding area and myriad of fish 🐠. Thank you for a great trip!
