3/4 Day Trip (AM) on August 31, 2024 • 4 adultsThe four of us had a great time and each of us got to bring in multiple fish. The boat is clean and in great condition. The captain gave us several fish options and locations. The friendly first mate was hard working and enjoyed what he was doing. We have no complaints and would do again
Peter Mullikin•Michigan, USMember since 20245.0VerifiedHard Working
3/4 Day Trip (AM) on February 5, 2024 • 4 adultsCaught several tunies and hooked an almost 4 foot barracuda and got him in the boat. Sometimes you got to wana a. I’ll be back to fish with these guys.
Matt Samargis•Oklahoma, USMember since 20235.0VerifiedGreat time!!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 7, 2023 • 5 adults • 1 childWe had a great time and caught some fish. It can be difficult to find outdoor activities that are accessible for my disabled son. These guys made sure he was involved and got in on the action. Thank you for a memorable trip!!
Harrison JossMember since 20215.0Caught a Hammerhead with Captain Dave & Top Shot Sportfishing Charters
Half Day Trip (AM) on September 11, 2021Best Day! Without a doubt, Captain Dave is the best, most attentive, and knowledgeable charter captain I’ve had the pleasure of going out with. As a Floridian, I’ve been on many charters but none compare to the experience of Captain Dave and his crew. He and his crew are respectful, helpful and fun. Many charter captains just don’t care about the customer or their interests. Dave is tuned into what you are looking for whether you’re an experienced angler or new to fishing like me. I highly recommend this charter.
Conner CannonMember since 20215.0Great day catching Maui with captain Dave
3/4 Day Trip (AM) on October 18, 2021Went out on the Happy Day Today with captain Dave a few weeks back and had a great time. A few of my fraternity brothers from back in college wanted to rent a fishing charter since it’s been awhile since we’ve all been in the same place at the same time. The boat was nice and clean. The crew was chill. We were able to catch a handful of Mahi and have a great day out on the water. I would recommend this charter to anyone in south Florida. Thank you Captain Dave
Shannon Luisa•Virginia, USMember since 20205.0VerifiedGreat 3/4 day trip with Capt. Dave!
3/4 Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2022 • 4 adultsMy son caught a 7ft hammerhead shark & I got a tasty Wahoo! 1st mate did an awesome job with rigging and getting the fish while the Captain Dave handled the boat during some really choppy waves. Definitely recommend booking, if your looking to catch fish!
Chance HenryRepeat angler•Texas, US•Member since 20192 trips5.0Verified3/4 day
3/4 Day Trip (AM) on July 26, 2022 • 4 adultsConditions weren’t the best but Capt Dave and his first mate Dave worked their asses off and we ended the day with 2 barracuda, 2 blackfin, and a 50” wahoo! Very informative guys and the boat was very nice would def recommend!
