It’s time to book a trip with Bass Fishing Musician today! Captain Dave has been running charters for the last 35 years and does everything to make sure you have a great time. If you wish to enjoy the hum of nature around you, a trip with Capt. Dave will hit all the right notes. This multi-talented captain has participated in multiple Bass tournaments and enjoys hitting the keyboards and singing on weekends.
Hop on board the recently restored 22’ Ranger boat that’s equipped with a 250 HP Mercury engine. With the help of the fishfinder, as well as the captain’s knowledge of the area, you’ll quickly get to where the fish are. Once located, turn on the wireless trolling motor to get on top of them. Before you know it, you’ll be reeling the fish in.
The stars of the show on these trips are Peacock Bass and Largemouth Bass. These have to be released after you’ve taken your photo. You’ll also be catching Clown Knife fish and other by-catch. Capt. Dave is confident you’ll catch fish during his trip, he has a “no fish, no pay” policy.
Included in the price of the trip are top quality rods and reels. The captain will provide artificial bait that the Bass go crazy for. If required, you can purchase live bait before the trip.
Everyone over the age of 16 will need to buy a fishing license before the trip begins. These can be purchased over the phone. Feel free to bring a small cooler of food and drinks along and the captain will provide ice and water.
Have a camera ready – you’re likely to see gators and numerous species of birds. Pack sunscreen, insect repellant, sunglasses, and a hat, and you’re ready to fish!
Book a trip today with Bass Fishing Musician for an unforgettable day out in the ‘Glades. You’re sure to come back time and time again.

Captain Dave was amazing he knew all the spots and he had all the lures and rod’s you could imagine. He only has one rule on the boat which is he is the only driver, but other than that you can do whatever. In are trip we managed to land 87 fish. Throughout are the experience we had a blast fish after fish by far the best charter we could have booked. Captain Dave is so friendly, with captain Dave there is no way you won’t have a blast

Very fun day on the water. Captain Dave is very knowledgable and helpful. He put us on fish all day and took us where we could see plenty of wildlife and gators while still catching fish. Most fish we've ever caught in one day. Thanks Dave

Have been fishing since I was a kid in Ohio. Moved to Florida in 1985. Worked in tournament fishing. Started taking people out and fell in love with that! It's a real joy to take people fishing and enjoy the outdoors. Lots of smiles and laughs makes for a beautiful day!
